Hello @learningstudent,
I am so sorry to hear of the many symptoms you are experiencing and not being able to find a diagnosis or treatment plan. It certainly is frustrating, isn't it?
I agree with what @funcountess has posted regarding being seen at a multi-disciplinary health center like Mayo or a university medical school. They not only have a lot of research going on but also specialists from different areas who communicate with each other. I understand that Mayo Clinic is now giving appointments. Here is the link to appointment information. http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63.
I'm wondering what meds you are taking. Your heart rate does seem to get high. Are you taking a beta-blocker for that? As posted above, also look at your environment. Have you ever lived or worked on a farm or an industrial area where toxins might have been present?
Do you think you might consider a second opinion?
Hi @learningstudent, I merged your 2 conversations about losing mucus membrane into one discussion that now appears in both the Autoimmune Diseases group and the Endocrine System group. I did this so that your history appears in one discussion and people can read all your messages in one place, and you can benefit from the help of others.
Like @funcountess and @hopeful33250 suggest, I also agree that you should confer with medical professionals.
@learningstudent . I do hope you see a infectious disease specialist . With yellow stools sounds like you need to see s G.I Dr and tell him of your yellow stools Are you eyes yellow? A lot of this sounds like a gallblader or liver problem . Dont put this off please see one of these Dr.s or both. The G.I Dr would be the first one I think
I have had dry eyes and issues with dry nasal passages. For the eyes, liquid tears, PM ointment at night and an RX for pataday. I often wear an eye mask at night, which helps keep moisture in. I use aquaflor with a q tip for nose; but maybe you might try a cpap, which allows moisture with heat while breathing. My mouth is dry; have to brush 2x day, once without toothpaste and use waterpic to keep gums and teeth in good shape.Xylimelt and biotene can help, too. Mouthguard for clenching. I have MCTD, with a touch of sjogrens, I think.
Hello learning student,
You sure have symptoms. Sorry to hear that.
For stomach GI problems have you had your bile ducts checked, and liver function?
Nose/ nasal issues, what about seeing an ear,nose throat doctor. Heart rate increase could it be a problem with the vegus nerve. It’s a long nerve that runs thru our bodies.
Getting dizzy upon standing from a sitting/ sleeping position can be a quick drop in bp.
It is a common condition,
It sounds like you have multiple health concerns. I have a friend who has increase in heart rate when she ate, her doctor told her she had episodes of afib.to 125. The condition with her would come and go.
You did not mention your age, male/female?
Are you near a teaching hospital like Mayo, or Cleveland or a university with a good medical school. They usually get complex cases on a regular basis. Many local doctors mean well,but usually just see common run of the mill problems.
Are you able to work, or retired?
Have you ever worked with heavy metals, iron, that can build up to toxicity same with chemicals?
Sometimes the environment plays a role in our health.
Hope you can get to the root of your health issues.
Take care
