Hmmm
We could run hundreds of dollars worth of tests that will probably be inconclusive; but hey, why waste the money when you could just accept the fact you will always be sick or in pain or great discomfort every day of your life!

I told my Dr. I’m sick for weeks or more than a month at a time 95% of the time. She said probably allergies. I said I do t think so. Anyway to test that? Nope. Just get used to be Inc sick and don’t take antibiotics or steroids because that’s not healthy to be doing that too much. Also if you have a bad cough and mucus drainage for weeks at a time it could lead to getting into your lungs! Welp, have a nice day

I told my doctor that i was interested in being tested for celiac’s (just the blood test, as a start) cuz i’ve had intermittent digestive issues and other odd symptoms for a few years that i can’t pin down a cause for through elimination diets+ reintroduction trials (they significantly improved both times I did Whole30, but *nothing* triggered me during the reintroduction period, so idk what the cause is) AND my grandma had celiac’s and my mom likely has it as she can’t eat gluten without tons of symptoms but she hasnt pursued a diagnosis. My doctor looked at me like i was stupid and said “if you think you have celiac’s, just don’t eat gluten…”. 
Oh, stupid me?! Is it really that easy?! All i have to do is “just not eat gluten”?! 

It was so irritating. Cutting gluten out of your diet is *not* easy and so i obviously don’t want to cut gluten out if i dont have to. And when your issues are intermittent, it’s hard to even do a trial period of no gluten and say for confidence that it solved my issue, cuz even when i am eating gluten everyday, i go periods of time without issues.
