Thanks for the encouragement guys. Apperantly I misread the walk in clinic's information. The doctor is there 3 times per week and only sees one patient each day on a first come, first served basis. I missed the time he was there today because of work, so I will try tomorrow at the time listed on the paper. I also called some kind of psychologic society that offers pro bono services for a year. The lady I was referred to is supposed to call me tomorrow to get more information from me and set up therapy. If I cannot get help soon from these two avenues, I will try other options. Tomorrow I will be going for a pulmonary function test to see what's going on with my breathing. Yesterday, I had done a tilt table test, which I failed miserably so they diagnosed'ed me with neurally mediated hypotension. This could explain some of my semptoms, but not all. If my speech and swallowing don't get better soon, I'm going to ask the neuro for more tests since this is causing me so much distress. Hopefully I can get myself together enough to enjoy life again. But this isn't going to happen without help. Maybe one day I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, but for now I feel hopeless, lost, scared, and confused.
