Hi everyone,

For the past few weeks, I’ve been struggling with some serious and painful health issues. About three weeks ago, I began experiencing severe stomach pain and bleeding in my stool. Things got so bad that I was admitted to the hospital for three days, where doctors ran every blood test they could think of. Unfortunately, even after all that, they still couldn’t determine what’s causing my symptoms.

Since being discharged, I’ve had to go back to the hospital multiple times because of the continued pain and bleeding — only to be sent home again without real answers. Because my hemoglobin levels have remained stable, the doctors are unable to keep me admitted or run the necessary tests in the hospital, which has left me stuck in limbo — still in pain but without a clear diagnosis or treatment plan. They’ve also been hesitant to prescribe any medication since they don’t yet know what’s going on internally.

I recently saw a gastroenterology specialist, who has scheduled me for an urgent endoscopy and colonoscopy on Monday, November 3, 2025. I’m praying this procedure will finally provide answers and help me begin the right treatment plan to heal and move forward.

These upcoming procedures and the follow-up care are very costly, and even with insurance, the out-of-pocket expenses are overwhelming. Between hospital visits, lab work, medications, and the time I’ve had to take off from work due to the pain and constant fatigue, I’m falling behind and struggling to keep up with medical bills and daily expenses.

I’m humbly asking for help during this time — any amount, no matter how small, truly makes a difference. Your support will go directly toward covering the cost of my upcoming procedures, follow-up visits, and necessary care as I continue searching for answers.

This has been a scary, painful, and exhausting experience, but I’m staying hopeful that with the right testing and treatment, I’ll finally be able to heal and get my life back on track. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading, donating, or even just sharing my story.

With love and gratitude,

Michelle
