Hi its ridiculous that no doctor can diagnose. You need CBC with differentials, thyroid profile Liver and pancreatic enzymes. Lipid and hepatic profile. Hpylori test. Have you ever had endoscopy? Renal function profile. Lymes and other tick born diseases test. You can be bit by a tick and not know it. From your picture of your scalp it almost looks like ring worm. It needs to be cultured. Go to dermatologist for that. I hope this helps. Your primary doctor or GP should be able to do blood tests. There are more blood tests that could be done too.

Hi there, thanks for replying. I've had pancreatic enzymes, liver and thyroid tested and CBC, diabetes and Addison's disease, though it was about 2 years ago. I've been tested twice for hpylori. I recently had a pilcam which showed healing ulcers and a small section of lymphangiectasia which should not be causing my symptoms, though this didn't show up a few years ago on barium meal and ultrasound.

My GP told me that he thinks the scalp lesions are connected to whatever is going on in the rest of my body, but gave me Trimovate, which didn't do anything.
GP seems totally disinterested and I now don't have a gastroenterologist so I'm not sure how to get more tests?
