Feeling Lost and Overwhelmed with Chronic Illness

I hear this. It's hard to know where to start. If you have a primary care doctor you trust, you could schedule there first. They can do some baseline blood tests for vitamin deficiencies, thyroid disorders, etc. and make referrals to specialists based on symptoms you describe. And if they dismiss you, or if you don't like and trust your current PCP- ask your community for recommendations for a new doctor until you find one who listens. It's not your job to know for sure that you're ill, or with what. It's a doctor's job to help you put the pieces together.
