Ugh, that sucks. Also can't be cheap for you guys, especially the DNA test, I imagine that would cost a pretty penny. What would the painkillers be for?
The only things I've had to deal with medication-wise is my dosage being upped, and barely noticing any difference. Only thing that is noticeable are the side effects coming back. It recently got upped again so I'm back on an irregular sleep schedule.
I don't get yelled at for sleeping a lot or being tired all the time, they just keep nagging me about it. My parents have even started comparing me to stuff like gerbils and bears. They've done several tests with me to check if it could be due to a disease, but all the tests were negative. I still get told it's due to me not doing anything all day, not having a proper job (guess why), etc, that those are all causing me to not have a proper sleeping schedule. It's not like I go to bed at 12AM and wake up at 3AM already, nope.
