E09.1 Diagnostic Approach Update in Mitochondrial Disease

[@haleydoe2279]

Thank you for reading my medical history aloud on KZbin. I diagnoses for Psoriatic Arthritis, Crohns disease, Hashimotos, PMDD (I'm even on Lupron for the hormonal symptoms), chronic fatigue and joint pain, headaches, NAFLD, ADHD, Autism, gallbladder disease with cholecystectomy, hiatal hernia, GERD. I could go on. This is just wrapped up in a beautiful bow for me. I've been attempting to research why I am so ill for so many years. I am only here because I wanted to know my mtDNA haplogroup. I'm screaming. Edit: the signs were all there. I'm only 4'10" tall. I'm angry this was never once considered.
