Need advice!!

Posted , 3 users are following.

I'm going to see a doctor of internal medicine next week but my symptoms are getting worse. Any ideas/advice would be greatly appreciated.

All of my life I've dealt with panic attacks, ever since I was a child. And as I grew up I've dealt with anxiety and depression. I've gotten medications for those and they are mostly under control.

For the last few years I've dealt with horribly painful menstrual cycles and that too got better with an ablation. I've had digestive problems most of my adult life, with little to no relief from otc aids. Now on top of all this, I'm dealing with extreme fatigue, achy and burning muscles, extreme dry skin, on and off hot flashes and on and off nausea.

I feel like I've been tested for everything under the sun with no answers.

    I think when comes to cramps that mine are the worst. That bad that I will threw up and pass out coz of pain . Imagine to pass out coz you cant take the pain and it has been like that in last 5-6 years . I started mu period late , at age 17. When comes to diagestive problems I had in lastvthree months worst pain in my life, was bloaded, had pain and crams, diarreha for three months, pain all over my stomach and I coukdnt eat anything. They put me on acid reflux meds and didnt help. I was tested for h pylori bacteria and it was positive ( out of normal range). With the pills Im taking my life changed ( except menstrual cramps which I know that is normal , my mom and sister had same and it stopped after giving a birth). Im 27 yrs old and trust me if you spend time reading on internet about your conditions you will go crazy. Stay positive, talk positive, get busy, stay in touch with friends, watch movies etc but dont search about your conditions on internet. If all tests showed that everything is ok than why do you have to search for sickness?! I dont blame you coz i was same which made me to be so depreesive . Take my advice and stay positive.

      Why would you reply with something like that? I'm not in a competition with you over how bad my symptoms are vrs yours. I'm here to see if anyone else has the same symptoms as I do, and can maybe give me some advice. And I'm not "searching for sickness" as you put it. I know my body and I know when something isn't right

    I'm sorry that I don't know your age,I'.m 32 but have been dealing with similar symptoms for years. Have you ever been asked about estrogen difficiency or fibromalegia? I'm dealing with the same given i have ptsd, bipolar, and IBS (with a trait due to alcoholism) the alcohol and also Estrogen difficiency did cause me to go through extreme fatigue and nausea, but primarily b/c I was too sad to get up. Hope you can find an answer!
