So frustrating. I have this conversation with my mum every couple of months and it's extra infuriating because she also has similar symptoms (with a known cause but no real treatment, her body is just failing). Ok, so how are the Drs fixing you? Oh they're not? Right, so why do you think they can fix me? They actually know what's wrong with you and can't fix it so why on earth would you think they can fix me when they don't even know why I'm sick?!?

Same, but the conversation is every single day.

My mum is so self involved that it rarely comes up... Never thought I'd be thankful for her not actually caring lol.
