If you have even slightly complicated health issues, it can be overwhelming to tell your story.
It's hard to tell your whole story in a short visit.
There’s never enough time, and you’re always afraid you’ll forget something important.

You feel like people don’t believe you.
Those with invisible illness often feel dismissed, and they jump from doctor to doctor trying to get a diagnosis.
