I have a sort of chronic illness and i am at a loss. I am 21 years old and for the past 5 years my body is starting to fall apart. All my bloedtests came back normal inclusing ecg, mri head, hearthfilm.. 

I have servere joints cracking and poppin everywhere, i am always weak and tired, my muscles shake.. even my lips and head. Always a sore throat, post nasal drip, constant allergy?, sleep doesnt make me fit, tinitus, constant pain in back of legs when lying down, Insomnia, pain in ribs, trouble concentrating, thinking, remembering.. every part in my body is 'off'. Docters don't take it that seriously but my life is falling in pieces.. i am in pain everyday and weak and tired everyday... i don't know what could be the cause? Maybe my immume system or something? I really need to get Some medication to keep on Living cause i don't wanna live like this anymore. I hope someone can help me..

    HI There,

    You need to see a Psychologist. You are not alone. This sounds like how I was when I was young. I went through most of my life feeling like that. Finally about 25 years ago I was diagnosis for depression and anxiety. Yes, depression and anxiety can have those symptoms. Medication and therapy changed my life.  See a Psychologist and tell him about this. Best wishes to you!

    From your discription which sounds exactly the same as what my wife experienced daily.

    I think also that you might be on the mark with your assumption of the immune systems involvement.

    My wife suffers from LUPUS.

    I suggest that you get a referral to see an immunology specialist for a full work up.

    Hopefully you get a good result.

    I wish you good luck and keep in the loop.
