      It definitely sounds like you have some kind of condition that needs to be diagnosed and treated. The positives here are that you're seeing doctors and they are running test. Also, it's not itching. Of course this could be just the beginning stages of something just starting for you, (I hope not). It’s not too uncommon for some conditions to take a while to be diagnosed. My vasculitis took over a year.  All the problems you have could be cause by stress. Don’t rule out stress and anxiety as the cause. Also, you not sleeping should be a concern. Have your doctor  give you something for sleep and anxiety. Let me know how everything goes.
