Driving me crazy

Hi all,

I'm 21 years old, have been working out for three years and always been pretty fit and healthy. For the past 4/5 months I've just felt slightly run down and not had as much energy as usual/been getting ill a lot and had 0 libido, not much action down below and don't even want to talk to girls.

Then suddenly about 7 weeks ago I started getting these symptoms 24/7 - a constant tremor literally all day everyday shaking my whole body and making my head bob. On top of this I've constantly felt slightly dizzy and my eyesight seems to be so much worse than normal, Maybe blurred vision? I've also felt this weird feeling with this almost like I'm weak or not able to do much even tho physically I'm not weak, I can't explain it but I just don't feel right. It sometimes flares up and gets really bad for a few hours then other times it's not as bad but is always there.

I've had 4 doctors appointments, blood tests for thyroid and general health and blood pressure is fine ect and doctors have tried telling me I have anxiety and depression aka it's in my head and I want to believe that but i have no stress in my life and I'm not depressed and I only really get anxious over this problem and having 0 libido, which killed my confidence a bit with women.

I'm lost with what this could be and doctors unfortunatly have been no help, I've taken so many different pills they've given me to try and nothing has worked or even helped, literally nothing stops these constant symptoms. I'm fed up of having this constant shaking, feeling rubbish and weak and having no energy/libido and this has been reflecting in my life. I never feel up to socialising or going out or gym because I feel so crap even though in my head I want to do these things because they make me happy. I wanted to go traveling soon and now I can barely work or just sit at home without feeling rubbish and ill, let alone go traveling alone which is sure to be stressful and make this worse (although if I was feeling better I'm sure it would be the best choice in my life but I feel like I can't go like this, I wouldn't enjoy it)

Any ideas guys??

    Hi there,

    Can you remember a trigger to your symptoms at all? It could be a few different things. Are you in UK? I have cfs/me myself and have these symptoms apart from the 0 libido. It has 3 categories: Mild,moderate and severe. Have a google and see if symptoms fit. Lymes has similar symptoms too. Don't be fobbed off By doctors.

    Hope this helps

    B

      Thanks for your reply B, had a look into those and I'm not sure, it could be but I doubt it. I am actually capable of physically doing things fine, i just feel rubbish when doing them and feel like my body is about to shut down after exercise even tho nothing actually happens I just feel like I need to stop and like I've ran a marathon or something

      Yeah, I get that too! It's tough stuff as I often forget I can't do things so do them and need to lay down and can be out of action for days. Maybe you could have the mild version? Where you can function more but still not the usual 100%.the symptoms you describe resonate with me alot.

    You say you work out I'm just wondering if it could be something to do with any supplements you might be taking a lot are very high in caffeine or maybe somthing has knocked your hormones out of balance or even over doing the vitamins
