What could be causing all my symptoms?
Posted , 5 users are following.
I have been on this never ending medical journey since 2016. I have changed doctors so many times and nonw of them can figure out what's wrong with me.
In 2016 I started having some really bad stomach issues that warranted a colonospy and endoscopy. Both were normal. I had another colonoscopy a few months later, as well as an MRI, MRE, and ultrasound because i was still having pain and they wanted to make sure nothing was mossed. Again these came back normal.
Fast fowrd a year later and im dealing with a bunch of symptoms that have just seemed to build up gradually. I am currenrly dealing with stomach pain, nausea, chills, dizziness, hair loss, and occasionally this pins and needles sensation all over my body that seems to come and go. So far I've had the following tests:
Colonoscopy/endoscopy
MRI
MR Enterography
Abdominal ultrasound
Meckel diverticulum scan
EKG
Chest x ray
Countless blood tests that have only showed anemia that varies but never dips below 11
I just feel so frustrated that I have had sooo much testing done and we still don't have an answer to why I feel so terrible all the time. I am so young, my symptoms started when I was 16 and now I'm 18 and about to go to college in like a month. I have to figure this out soon. I just don't know what to do anymore.
Also I put this under fatigue because I don't really know where else to put it

have you done a stool test? if not, I recommend the one from doctor's data.

Yes I've done quite a few: h pylori, giardia, calprotectin, ova and parasite, blood, and a few others. I've also gotten tested for tuberculosis, mono, EVB, and LDH. All of them came back pretty normal
