That old expression, sounds like you're been through the wringer, may apply--without that eject bar! Sorry for your trouble. We've been on the autoimmune roller coaster about 20 years with my wife's lupus. Medicines, reading, questions, command decisions when things are going south, always prayers, often unusual answers and directions and even comfort have all been on that track.
As someone with 48 years of rheumatoid arthritis (diagnosed at age 2ish), I, and so many like us--and there are many more than any of us realize as we hunker down in survival mode--can relate. "Conflicted" is the necessary attitude regarding the immune-suppressants. We have to become Jedi masters to navigate the messages from our bodies--and this american Medical Industrial Complex.
Stella, this is brutal. I don't know what else to say except I hear everything you are putting out there.
