It's all in your head!!!
I'm so sorry you are going through this! I am in agreement with others on getting more opinions. I probably had 20 opinions in a ten year period. I would get in touch with the top notch guys.
As for who is top notch, we all have our different ideas but Global Networking I think might be a great way to go. I hope this isn't considered advertising but on my journey I really got some great ideas and advice even tho in the end I did stuff locally. They can get all your info and do so much of the leg work on finding someone who is top notch!!!!!
I think most of us have been through the whole "gaslight" thing where docs try to make us think we are crazy. Keep posting, we are here for you.
