Have so many problems, I can really use some advice.

Posted , 2 users are following.

Before anyone says it, I can't go to a specialist or doctor. I'm doing poor financially and my medical insurance cannot let me get another competent doctor for a couple of months because I just registered for a unethical doctor who just wants insurance money and doesnt care about my rapidly deteriorating health. SO now I turn to forums in hope someone can point me somewhere WebMD can't. I'm a 24 y/o male (25 in 2 months) who's suffering from back pain, debilitating fatigue (have trouble supporting myself to be upright because a lack of energy), hair loss and thinning on top of my head as well as receding hairline (Not in my genetics), insomnia, ascites ( fluid in my belly ), trouble sitting still or keeping my head in one place for too long without twitching, rapid heart rate and decreased libido. Whole lotta stuff, I know. Possible reasons why.... I have huge hips that usually suffocate my scrotum, something that I dont even feel the discomfort of anymore because of how often it occurs. My wisdom tooth on my right side had come out and is now just a stinky hole that I havent been able to get checked with a dentist because of lack of funds/ insurance. I have also abused marijuana, alcohol and tobacco in the past 8 years trying to deal with a depression (i think?) i had , just now giving them up. I do not and havent taken any medications. Any responses would be greatly appreciated I am lost on what I may or may not have and what I could do about it. If you're reading this, thanks for even getting this far. Help!

    First off, if you are addicted to alcohol and drugs, coming off them can cause all sorts of symptoms.

    Second, having a stinky hole where your wisdom tooth was, probably means infection. If you don't get that checked you could get sepsis which is life threatening.

    The scrotum thing I never heard of.

    Depression can also cause lots of symptoms as well as low iron.

    I'm sorry, but you NEED to see a doctor.

    There's got to be a free clinic where you live, check your local hospital. And if you are in the US you should be covered by your parent's insurance until you are 26 according to Obamacare.

    Do you have anyone you can talk to? A relative, clergy?
