I completely understand! I was a music major. Had my tonsils removed before my first major performance. Pulled a muscle in my chest wall while taking a woodwind class. Got strep throat the week of an opera I was in. Not to mention all the other random illnesses that affected my non-major classes. You just have to roll with it, as frustrating as it is. Your health is most important and everything else will work out eventually. It is super hard to take, but you will make it.

Can’t you take that online?

I cannot even begin to fathom the amount of frustration this has brought you. I wish there was something I could do to help. I hope you don’t have to drop the class, because I know how much finishing college means to you.

I wish you all the best.

So why do you have to drop then? Can’t you use the internet no matter where you are?

Oh…
well…
Can’t you test out?

Might not hurt to look into it. Then at least this time you could take the time to study for it while your resting. Then when you can just test out. It may be the way to go in the future too if you foretell of any problems.

Send out those emails and letters to the Mayo Clinic and doctors around the country . . . to teaching hospitals!

Somebody out there knows what to do!

Know how frustrating it must seem to you . . . you have been suffering as a direct result of doctors’ mediocrity! We need to change the medical payment system in this country–no cure, no pay!

I can understand, how you feel, my dear! (Cold comfort: Math was always a horror discipline for me.)

As you told earlier, your aim is to become a psychologist (if I remember rightly).
Have you ever considered to target this aim by following an other, less strictly academic educational way?

I don’t know the situation in the U.S., but in Europe it’s possible to get some education e.g. in psychotherapy and counseling by following trainings offered by approved Psychological Associations.

You’ve already gotten some good advice here, but I’ll say get well soon and good luck with your classes. Definitely look into what Dr Jackson said, that may be a great solution for you. Have you found a new specialist to help with your pancreas problem? Maybe talk to him about curing the problem instead of trying to cover up the pain.

Pink Freud-I’m so sorry to hear this. I have read some of your older posts and was able to learn a bit about what you have been going through!

I wish I had the answer and a cure to make you feel better all the time. i like what Chev was saying about contacting some clinics. Maybe there is a good Doctor out there that has more experience in what you have and could be better help to you.

You are so young to be having life changing problems like this!

I will keep you in my Prayers and thoughts and hope someone out there can help you so you can live a productive full life!

Have a nice day!
