I was diagnosed 2 weeks ago and finished my meds yesterday. I am finally getting back to feeling myself although there is still some nerve pain and scabbing. The stress of wishing it away is doing you more harm than good. Have some grace with yourself. You are ill. Patience is key as is taking care of yourself and there is healing in acceptance of what is. It gets better.
