    I should also mention,I have experiencing diarrhoea most mornings only..this has started around 2 months ago,I’m fine during the day I just have the urge to go when I wake up..the doctor said it maybe IBS and prescribed tablets which have helped a little..I have had a blood test for celiac which came back negative also I have had a endoscopy for somthing else last April which was normal...if I did have celiac the endoscopy would caught it last year.

    I can feel what you have been through! I can only tell you that I have some enigmatic head pressure, right side sensory disturbances symptoms for over 2 years now and I could feel better over time, it happens very slowly though. still have a long way to a full recovery. I hope you get better

    Wow, you have a lot on your plate right now! Have you and your dr considered spider bites, brown recluse, black widow or a tick bite? Has your thyroid fuction been tested? Mold issues, carbon monoxide issues. Your work inviornment. Did they do a nerve conduction test which would pinpoint any nerves that are being compromised etc. Seeing a neurologist whose specialities could better serve you. This such a scary experience and I understand all your anxieties! Be persistent with your drs. and keep asking questions all drs don’t have the knowledge that you may need to help you. You can go online with known prestigious hospitals such as the Mayo Clinic and put in your symptoms and they will match them up with possible maladies. Going to a place such as the Mayo Clinic might be a good thing to do. Best of luck shak, I am especially sorry you are facing all this with a baby on the way. Fight for your health and don’t let any one put you down especially drs that just plain may not have the knowledge you need to get the help you need!! 🕊????🌹
