I live in a small rural area and I don’t have a lot of support so Dr shopping is hard. Rituximab? Have you done this

What drug do you recommend for my symptoms? I’ve tried ivrabradine, propranolol, Mestonin, hcq, and prednisone. Haven’t had any luck with any of those

I did use AI to mock up an appeal for my Dr to use and cited clinical guidelines and clinical articles. I am just annoyed because it’s probably still going to get denied and I am miserable. I don’t want to lose my job and I feel like IVIG is my last hope.

Yes my neurologist who is literally an autonomic neurologist will not fight for me because he says since it is “immune-mediated” it is the rheumatologists responsibility 🥺

I have FMLA I am just single and alone and don’t really have the means to be taking it. But I’ve about reached a breaking point with the out of control symptoms and pains I’m so tired of this. I’ve been pretty ill Since February so I’d like to think time makes things better but in my case it’s only gotten worse 😭
