    WATER...drink more water.

    Its amazing what WATER does for our bodies.

    I have been told by many Drs to increase the water intake and many of my symptoms, similar to yours are gone.

      i also forgot to say that i have swollen glands, do you have that?

      Which glands are swollen all of them and have you ever had a fever you in a low grade fever. You can look up glandular fever and if you told your doctor this and they agree and I've checked your glands in their swollen they need to be doing some major tests like hepatitis C hepatitis A Tigers and checking your blood for other things. No night sweats I presume.

      You know stress can cause a lot of things I believe there is 100 symptoms of stress and basically they're the same symptoms at anything else can cause as well and usually a lot of the GI dysfunctions cause stress in themselves so to chalk it up justice stress is ignorant. If I were you I be getting HIV test if you think you've been unprotected with sex with anyone. I also would be concerned about cancer which I believe usually shows up above the limp chain and drains into it and all around it. You really need to get that scan with contrast whether it be an MRI or CT. And I would push for an upper and lower GI at the same time don't let them tell you they can't. I thought I had swollen lymph nodes but it was more or less the limp Chainz and they were irritated and actually hurt to the touch but not really swollen, are you sure and you did say the doctor confirmed swollen lymph nodes how big are they. Mention non-hodgkin's lymphoma to them. Believe me tons of things are running through their head they just don't want to spend the money on the test to figure out what it is until it's looking at them in their face and that would be too late for you if it is anything serious, sorry to alarm you but if you're like me at this point I don't really give a damn what I said to my doctors anymore I want them to do their job. I've had to do so much research I'm worn out just from that. Here's a test if they think its stress that's creating your swollen lymph nodes tell him to give you .5 milligrams of clonazepam morning and night and go on it for a couple of weeks straight and you see if those lymph nodes go down or maybe even a month see what they say about that. By the way are you male or female what is your age and weight and do you have any other underlying diseases like diabetes strokes heart attacks or cyst anywhere.

      yes i'm also sick of the doctors not doing their job, possibly it is stress but im it a lot of pain and have been alot more stressed out than i am currently. i'm 16 female and i'm only 47 kg. i can't put on weight. i'm usually around 55, and i'm 5 ft 6 i told the doctor about my glands and she just moved on to talking about something else. i have tried really hard and they just keep doing nothing about it, its not normal for anybody to feel like i am feeling. i'm really sick of it, i can't do any of the day to day things id like to do, i can't hold up a job, how do they expect me to keep living like this. thankyou so much for your help, i can't really do anything else from here they've told me to wait until i can have a scan but that could be up to 8 months. this is really getting rediculous

      oh and i've had std tests do they usually look for hiv in a standard swab test?

      Why would it take eight months to get a scan you should be able to get a scan within 6 weeks and make your doctor listen to you and check your glands in chart it so its record. Doesn't epstein-barr virus cause swollen glands. I get scans within a week. Got an upper GI done within a month and I'm getting a lower done within a month soon. You need to make your doctors accountable.
