Unfortunately there are no specialists near my area and I can't afford to travel. I know it sounds ridiculous. But it's true.

And thank you. It's really very appreciated to know that you care. Even though you're a stranger. Sorry if we've bumped virtual heads a few times. And I really never intended to be an annoyance. Really really.

EDIT: One way to put it is---I was isolated even before the pandemic started.
