The most difficult part of a claim:
proving what happens when no one else sees it happen.
Example,
I have severe muscle spams where my feet (mostly my feet, toes, but also hands and fingers) they twist and turn by themselves and contort badly, with sever epain, this can go on for up to around 20 minutes..
I have also gone through periods of craying and weeping like a baby,, for no reason out fo the blue.. this mostly happened in the hospital, I think some nurses saw it happen several times..
Crippling pain where I just fall, I lose al muschle control and just fall...
I forgot to add severe diarreah.. only way they can see it is if you lose a loot of weight, or for some reason it shows anemia.. which it usually doesn't show in blood tests... you suffer in sielnce..
I have many weird and crazy things happen,, I really don't think they believe me..
all the years of the pain and suffering, when I fiannly had a huge syst grown on my pancreas they finally took my complaints serious..
The neurolgoist looke dlike he thought I was lying, until mky body went spastic and I fell several times when he told me to walk around on my heels, toes, and also when he had me do those arm and hand outreach exercises..
they really think you are lying unless they see something..
blood tests do not always show disease.. sometimes the chemical levels just don't fall or raise to the levels showing the diseases..
It's not our fault these diseases play these games and screw us..
