I relate to this best out of all the videos mostly bc she started having issues as an adult and that is when it started for me. I am 42 now but the episodes started when i was around 23. Ive been in n out of ERs soooo much through all of those years. I got tested for gallbladder issues, intestine issues n more. There seemed be alot they were checking for but nothing ever came up. Yet, i was stil deathly ill through my throwing up stages. 2years ago i found a GREAT Dr from Ohio State University. She helped me soo much and i FINALLY, after almost 20 yrs, got a diagnosis that what i have is CVS.
That was April 2024. ALL the Drs in my area ( in southern Ohio, across river to WV), had no clue what was going on with me so, it has been really tough. Im thankful for youtube channels like this and for Drs and people doing the work to shed light on this disorder bc i know how much people suffer with this. I pray this continues and more can learn about CVS and more treatment and understanding is there. Thank you 💙💙💪💪😊
