Welcome to My Blog

My name is Melissa; in 2018 I developed chronic illnesses. After two years, my illness has become progressive and my symptoms continue to develop. My journey through chronic illness has been difficult and confusing. I’d like to save you some of the pain and hardship I had in navigating the medical system. Feel free to ask questions or request articles. If you want to follow my journey more closely, check out my Instagram or go to the About Me page!
