Hi Willow,
Actually I do think it happens a lot. Most consumers don't have the knowledge and/or finances to seek out the proper dx. I read of a young woman who had been raped and was so traumatized she fell into a catatonic (mute) state and no one knew of the assault. She was misdiagnosed and subjected to several rounds of ECT, before her experience was revealed. Lots of 'survivors' out there. I think it is great that you are questioning and seeking answers, it can only help you.
As for me, no I have not been fortunate enough to find something to stop my cycling, but I am a very tenacious person and have an excellent team of drs. who listen and try to help. I wish you well- Judy
