Help! I am so stressed and so scared and I turned to sugar to cope which never works. I talked myself out of a piece of carrot cake for my 22nd wedding Anniversary dinner but then I ended up eating 1/2 a Ding D-ong on the way home from the basketball game we saw tonight. The sugar was sickening and I managed to talk myself out of eating the second half. I asked my husband to throw it in our dumpster so I wouldn't rescue it out of our personal trash can. I am so stressed and so scared about my husband's health. I told him yesterday that I might have to go back to the mental hospital over it. Six months with my husband sick every day and no diagnosis. I can't stand it any more. I feel like screaming and crying and breaking things. I can't figure out how to reduce the pressure I feel every day. I can't take it anymore. I need some relief. I need my husband to feel better. I need him to be able to get some medication to help him feel better. We need to know what is wrong. This no diagnosis stuff is making me crazy. He has been so strong going to work sick every day for months. Yesterday he finally had to take off because he was so dizzy and he started talking about going on disability. I feel terrified about what will happen to him, to us, to our finances. Every day I have to see my husband suffer and that is horrible. I can't take it anymore. I just can't take it. Something has to give.

Andrea, take a deep breath!!!! I know that you are scared and worried, but panicking isn't going to help. You need to keep at the doctors until they diagnose him. If these ones don't help, find one that does! But do not give up! And do not eat any more sugar! That won't help, either. I am so sorry that you are going through this, I know this is hard, but your husband needs you. So call your sponsor, call your priest, call anyone to help you get through it, but don't give up!!! I am praying for you and for your hubby. ((((HUGS))))!!

Stef said it better than I ever could have. Hang in there - you will get through this! Do go talk to someone, that will help reduce the pressure.
Can you do a hard workout or chop up some firewood or something really physically strenuous to get out some of that excess adrenaline?

have you looked into Menier's Syndrome, Andrea? Google it - see if you can identify if symtoms are the same as what he is experiencing. It is often misdiagnosed. I will pray for you and your husband.

Hang in there Andrea. You can do this. Like your friends above said, find someone to talk to, in person. That will help, talking to someone who can hold your hand and listen to you. I do hope you and your husband get some kind of answers soon. Hugs.
