Onset
Looking back several years , I think I had signs of a problem. As far back as four years prior to my symptoms I felt as if I wasnt up to par, however, I attributed this lack of energy to age and weight. In the summer of 2003 I did a lot of hiking and definitely felt I was tiring to quickly. I routinely commented to my wife that I didnt think my eyes looked right, she would always respond by saying, they look tired. Since I wasnt sleeping well I thought maybe it was lack of sleep.
I mentioned my former place of employment as emphasis that being in an unhealthy environment can contribute to a lowered immune system
He patted me on the hand and said, we all get lumps on our arm after 40. At this point I am under the influence of a hypnotic drug and in looking back, surely I must have been in the Twilight Zone.
As I look back and wonder why all these doctors reacted as they did to my complaints I can understand
