I have so many issues, it's mind boggling! I don't know where to start. I research, but I have so many symptoms of so many things. The doctors all look like deer in headlights when I start going over all my symptoms. I would love to just feel normal again.

Symptoms are subjective. Tests are objective. That's why I said to collect the tests and see what looks in and what looks out. When there's a lot involved its got to be a process of elimination.

I forgot to mention that I went through a period of a couple of years where I felt beyond rotten. I kept going back to the doctor where they kept running more tests. I was put on a massive dose of augmentin as a just-in-case thing but they were stumped. I eventually collapsed and went into the hospital completely dehydrated. Turns out I was having thyroid storm, Grave's disease, and over this whole period nobody had thought to give me a thyroid panel. So, don't lose hope but assume nothing. Check those tests.
