When I was first diagnosed with a severe anxiety disorder it came at the age of 40 when I was then diagnosed with Mononucleosis not sure if that’s one. Howevef I am so sorry you have been diagnosed with so many, I just wanted to reach out and let you know that there may be some correlation especially if your immunity is being taxed by stress and discomfort. Talking to people in these dialogues I hope gives you an audience to share with. Have you been under lots of stress? Only share if you want, I am going to try and evoke some good vibes and send them your way.

I understand how you feel, I have struggled with anxiety for some time. I have recently learned about Yoga, Ti Chi, and mindful meditation and they are changing my life, I still have my health problems; but I am not anxious. I was hesitant because of the Middle Eastern religious ideas, but someone showed me how I can align my own religious ideas with the same exercise and meditation. Perhaps they can help you as well.
