I feel like I'm dying

How are you now? Did you get a diagnosis? Did you go to the Mayo Clinic? I'm 43 and saw your post and I'm guessing because there is no post that your good now.? I'm going to try Zantac and Vitamin D, now that I saw your post....because it seems my intestinal issues are getting worse.....I haven't got any tests yet, I'm just trying everything first before the doctors put me through the rat race....

I have same problems as u have. But i have anxiety and depression. And i have bad thoughts i think if death. I went to ER. Like 20 times believe me. And every test they did they all came out good. I decided to see psychiatrist. And he put me on Zoloft 50 mg.

Look into an Autonomic Dysfunction, possibly POTS, Mayo has a good clinic. Often misdiagnosed for Psyc.

im young like in my teen years and i have the same things happening to me that is or was happening to you i am scared

Hello @starlight_msp

I see that this is your first post at Mayo Connect, welcome!

It is certainly understandable that you would be frightened by these types of symptoms. Have you talked with your doctor about this yet? Understanding the reason for your symptoms will help reduce your fears which is very important. The teen years can be stressful enough without added stress.

As you are comfortable sharing more, please let us know how long you have had these symptoms and if you have seen a doctor.

I look forward to hearing from you.

This happened to me back in 2012. I'm pretty much back to normal now. At the time, I did feel like I was dying. There were so many tests done on me which all came back fine. They never really figured out what was wrong with me. There were speculations of Fibromyalgia, Auto Immune disease, and Low Thyroid. I did have low Vitamin D, and started taking a Vitamin D supplement for that. Even though I didn't have much energy, I started doing Zumba. That was a Godsend. I was already eating pretty healthy, but I cut out all gluten, and that seemed to help as well. Slowly but surely I became myself again. I am much older than you, about to be 50 in September. I don't know if my case had anything to do with Pre-Menopause. Nevertheless, try eliminating gluten, sodas, don't eat too many sweets, drink plenty of water, and exercise every day. That's what worked for me. Good luck!!

I'd like to add my welcome, @starlight_msp; and I'm so happy to see you return to Connect, @srodriguez – welcome back!

As @hopeful33250 mentioned, could you share a few more details, @starlight_msp ?
What symptoms are you experiencing? When did you notice your symptoms? I'd really like to connect you to other members so that they too, can share some insights that might help – thanks @srodriguez, for returning with such an encouraging message – may I also ask if parents/adults in your family are aware of your symptoms, starlight?

I would recommend that you have your Vitamin B12 levels checked. I was constantly losing weight & lost 45 lbs, had no energy, fatigue, had neurological symptoms & gastrointestinal issues & I developed a bopping up & down type of walking. I was seeing many specialists and a neuromuscular doctor finally diagnosed my deficiency. I had no B12 left in my body. He prescribed 1000 mco of B12 each day and within 6 weeks some of my symptoms started to lessen or abate. I still have many other health concerns but I highly recommend that you give it a try as it can’t hurt to take it.

@starlight_msp, Welcome and I hope you have received some solid input about where to start. I would offer one warning in regards to Vitamin B supplements. I don't know for certain that too much Vit. B12 will not hurt you, but if you take a B complex, it is entirely possible to get too much Niacin, which I believe is B6. Otherwise, I believe @marychapman offers a good idea to have it at least checked. If it is very low, your Dr. may start you with an injection which is much more efficiently and rapidly absorbed. Many of us eat plenty of foods with vitamin B, but there are a number of meds that decrease your body's ability to absorb it.
Just FYI,

I had similar symptoms for years and it was missed because they didn’t order mast cell stains for my biopsies. These are not standard lay performed for endoscopy and colonoscopy. Also if the endoscopy is negative the cells could just be in the colon. I also had systemic symptoms like POTs .
I have a diagnosis of mastocytosis, systemic and just for your information I was treated as a general mast cell disorder for bout 5 years before definitive diagnosis was made with Zantac twice a day Zyrtec two tablets both morning and evening and singulair to start along with immodium and phenergan as needed and now I am also using cyclosporine A with great relief.
Best!
