I do not mean to be annoying by posting such a strange thread here. I found out yesterday that my mother was diagnosed with CFS a few years ago. She ha never told me but now I can see why she was the way she was. I have been feeling horrible for the past three months. I have been to three doctors who say that while my glands are swollen I must be making the rest up.
swollen lymphnodes
reoccuring respiratory infections
chronic nasal drip
weight gain (partially my fault, partially an anti-depressants fault
Extreme exhaustion (so bad at one point all I could do was lay in bed....I did WANT to get up but I felt like I couldn't)
I went from being incredibly in shape to not being able to get through a workout
vision and headache problems
bone pain (this is so weird I do not know how to describe it)
muscle pain (even when I do nothing)
foggy brain that will not focus
cravings for sugar that are abnormally strong
digestion problems
I do not know that much about CFS, FM, or other diseases like them. I was just wondering if it sounds like I should try and see a doctor that specializes in those diseases. And for the record I do not drink, smoke, use any drugs, and I have never had sex or used other people's needles. I cannot figure out why I feel so bad.
