@sundance6 - Has anyone mentioned POTS to you? Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. You mentioned your fainting and near fainting episodes - they can appear related to many conditions, including autoimmune.
This link discusses it in detail.

Thank You! Very interesting article! Many things it talks about are what I experience.
Working with my PCP to get a heart monitor called I believe Hotler. We'll see what it comes up with.
As of last week I found a Daily Journal notebook that I can keep a record of how I am feeling all the time. I've modified it a bit to keep track of what I am eating, feeling and any medication I take. It's starting to so some interesting similarities in pain, fatigue and other things.
I've started to listen closer to my body! When it tells me I am on the edge, I walk aways from what I am doing and rest.
Thanks Will keep you posted!
