Just want to give an update. This might be my final post. I just finished a virtual appointment with my neurologist. He said the nerve conduction study came back normal, and EMG was also normal as well. He said he felt bad but I would have to live with it, and said I should lose weight. No hard feelings to the doctor, he’s just doing his job. So I’m back to square one. I’m unable to see a new PCP until this virus passes.

I know something is wrong with me. I’ve been sleeping 10-14 hours a day, and been very tired when I’m awake. I was on the Pulmicort for two weeks; my cough got worse, had headaches all day, and got bad chest pain. With my nurse’s permission, I stopped using it. Cough almost vanished, as did the chest pain. Headaches come and go. I’ve gone back to using my inhaler 3 times a day.

I noticed that along with being very tired, both of my armpits hurt. It’s like a numb stabbing feeling. My right armpit really hurt at first, like being poked. After a week or so, the left armpit started to feel sore. Now, like a wishbone, I’ve got numbness from one armpit to the other, including the top part of my chest and collarbone. I can’t tell if what I’m feeling in my armpits are just sore muscles or lymph nodes.

My red bumps continue to show up everywhere, had some appear on my face. I’ve tried popping them like acne but they don’t pop. They just stay there.

Lastly, I have noticed my legs have started to form “pits” in the front part of the legs, roughly halfway between my knees and ankles. About two inches across. Sometimes it’s very obvious, and looks like someone cut off my skin.

I honestly have no idea what to do now. Neurologist said he wants to see me in 6 months “if I continue to have symptoms”. The ENT I mentioned laughed me out of his practice. And my primary care doctor is a clown.

Please don’t feel sorry for me, I don’t want it. I just want to feel better, because I feel like I’m so sick I can barely function. Thank you everyone for your help.
