[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 211672"] I think having a diagnosis is important in that it provides a vehicle for things to try in an effort to get relief or go forward... particularly medication. However..there are caveats... 1. I think minimum amounts of medications should always be used since there are side effects. Sometimes natural supplements are helpful. Ideally, a combination therapy can be tried. 2. I think emphasis on a diagnosis should be avoided. Simply, know that it is something identified and that treatments have been helpful for people in the past. Identification and treatment are key. Focus...not so much. 3. diagnosis's should not be something to be feared or used as an excuse for not going forward. Just simply as an explanation for a roadblock that can be addressed. [/QUOTE]
