[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2478503, member: 451727"] Hi there, I truly feel for you because what you seem to be dealing with is a person who is absolutely convinced she has a specific health condition that she doesn't have. I would say she certainly does have a health condition though and it's one that is making her ill and needs addressing. None of us can diagnose anything of course but I would say you are actually being a very good husband by 'refusing' to blindly go along with her beliefs which would be enabling her to continue. If a person has a mental health issue that is telling them they are this or that, then no amount of logic is likely to help, they will always come up with their own rebuttals to anything you say. Personally, I think your wife needs some professional help because unless she addresses that then she may well become ever more ill both physically and with the mental stress too. I know this makes it sound easy as access to such help is slim if available at all. You are in a horrible position but she is lucky to have you, many people don't have such support. [/QUOTE]
