Thank you for the reply. I know I need to worry less about what people are thinking of me and more worry about what's best for my health, but as I replied in another comment, before I was diagnosed I had one doctor who believed I was faking and it prolonged my diagnosis, causing me to ultimately need multiple surgeries. I'm just paranoid I guess. It messed me up bad to go undiagnosed for months and to get so sick while being told I was faking, only to find out I'm actually quite sick and will need surgeries to repair damage that's been done from being left untreated so long. I know it's weird and cringey for me to care so much to the point where I felt the need to post in here about this, but like I said, it really messed me up bad being told I was faking.
