Hi, I'm JP, or some of you may know me as Speex. I suffer from multiple chronic illnesses. And lately, I have been dealing with a decline of my autonomic nervous system and a probable CSF leak. The pain has been excruciating, and my doctors, for the most part, have been unwilling to treat me until I have advanced testing. Soon, I will be heading to the Cleveland Clinic for testing. I need more advanced neuroimaging and other studies. After Cleveland, I may have to go to Northwestern in Chicago. These trips are very costly for me as I have had to drop out of school and no longer have the disbursements to help cover these trips. At home, I still have several specialists and subsequent procedures and tests I have to arrange. Ultimately, I want to be in a good enough position pain management-wise that I can return home to my silly orange fluffball that I haven't seen in several months. Your help is immensely appreciated.

Much Love
