I'm devastated

So my holidays had become 2 weeks in a very small part of Pattaya.

Ghettoes often have much to commend them as I've remarked before

How profound, frequent. I really wish I could be more like you.

Delusions of adequacy on your part I fear Joe

Hi Joe - sorry, I have only just read this thread.
Something similar happened to me four years back. I was, very late in life, diagnosed with Crohn's disease. It's a blow being told you have a condition that will be with you for life.
But, and this is very important to remember, even though you may not feel like it right now you are better off than you were before.. Diagnosed or not, you would still have the condition. Undiagnosed equals untreated. Now, at least, you can be treated for it.
