Hallie Abrams had severe fatigue, sleep problems, and leg rashes for years, but every standard blood test came back normal. After conventional doctors hit a dead end, she turned to functional medicine to find answers her regular labs couldn't explain.
I was exhausted. I couldn't sleep enough. I'd get up in the morning and, you know, there's those 9 minutes of snooze. I could snooze and fall deep sleep in those 9 minutes. I, at 3:00 PM, would crash. Like, I'd be yawning, yawning. It was scary. I was bloated. Like, my stomach in the morning would be different than my stomach in the evening. I would get random rashes all over my legs. The doctor would biopsy it and then I'd have allergy testing, but that didn't come up on testing. So I kept going to doctors and I was just running in circles. Nothing was coming up on traditional blood labs. That's when she nicely said, I've done sort of all I can do for you. I think it's time you find a functional doctor that can really like help you. And that's when I started looking.
