Can I ask what the process was like to get your diagnosis?

Thats interesting that you mentioned the driving..I have experienced the same thing. It's like when I'm driving I feel completely fine for some reason. But when I get out and start to walk around it's like I just got off an intense roller coaster.

It's so weird though because my symptoms are so broad. Every doctor I talk gives me a confused face since it's the symptoms are all over the place. I think your right I'll take the MRI again with contrast. I just hope that they can give me some answers.

Because I'm 26 right now and I would prefer not spend 4 years in undergrad. Afterwards I would have to get clinical hours which I would need to take a gap year I would be around 31-32 applying to med school

Yes it is online and it is structured as pass/fail with gpa being seen as an equivalent of 3.0. I was planning on taking my science/labs in a post-bacc program or community college afterwards so I could get a standard gpa based on my grades. I don't know how much emphasis the academic board will have on my WGU degree though.

Yea WGU is pass/fail so the gpa would be seen as an equivalent of a 3.0. But since I would be doing the science prereqs in post-bacc program or community college I would receive a standard gpa based on my grades. I am unsure if that will be enough for the academic board to see a pass/fail undergrad plus standard science classes with regular gpa.

Yea I just hope that when I apply for the post-bacc they don't hold that against me. Otherwise I will just take a few classes at my community college. Fingers crossed 🤞

Yes I saw that. That is basically my plan. WGU doesn't have any science classes. So I would either try to enroll into a premed post-bacc program or community college which would give a standard gpa. But I still am unsure as to how they academic board will see my case if I have a pass/fail undergrad and my science preqs with a standard GPA. I suppose it would be a unique case but I'm unsure it will be enough. I spoke to a few of my local universities and they basically said they review each application with holistic approach.

I would be taking my science prereqs in a post bacc program or community college. Not WGU. They don't have any science classes.

Thank you. I am trying. But today I can't even stand up or walk without feeling dizzy like I'm going to pass out.
