prepare for possible gaslighting. it's unfortunately very, very common - and it helps to know what it can look and sound like, so i recommend reading up on that if you can. I always feel more at ease when I have lists of my symptoms, examples of how bad they can get/how they affect me, questions i want to ask/my goals for the visit, and info on the conditions I'm concerned about. I knew as soon as my symptom onset that there was a high likelihood that i had developed ME, and after over a year of doctors and BS, i was diagnosed, and my assumptions proven right. DO NOT GIVE UP if you get bullshit answers like "stress", "anxiety", etc. when you KNOW something else is going on. ❤️ If they ask where you want to be referred to/ if they don't know where to send you, I'd say go to rheumatology. Also, don't let them talk you into graded exercise therapy/GET. Some physical therapy (while you're in control of the pace and don't overdo it) is okay, but not graded/increasing ((if you have ME)) Good luck!! I hope you get answers soon!
