Hello. I know this article is over a year old but I have hopes of someone reaching back out to me. I have had my illness for 13 years and have never received an actual diagnosis from the many 50+ doctors I have seen.
I am gluten intolerant, sugar alcohol intolerant, and many other foods as well. I have multiple Chemical sensitivity. Whenever I inhale perfumes, cigarette smoke, or apply lotions to my skin, including sunscreens, I become deathly sick as if I have the flu and it sends me to bed for days at a time. I become weak, disoriented, brain, fog, headaches, nausea, and sometimes muscle aches to name a few. The most at one time that I have ever stayed well is three weeks it has left me disabled and unable to work. I am still searching for answers asked to how I woke up one morning in 2009 and have never been the same again.

Rochester Mayo does virtual medical vists. Perhaps schedulng one and sending copies of all your bloodwork can help with obtaining a diagnosis and treatment. My sense is you are suffering with some form of endocrine imbalance, perhaps adrenal. I hope you are able to find helpful answers soon, but for sure you need medical support. I know from my own experience that local small tow docs were really low in proficiency and accuracy, plus overworked, and if your issue isn't an easy one, you may never get an accurate answer or solution unless you search elsewhere.

@dixzeland Sounds like you have had a really difficult time. And you’ve not gotten ANY answers? Have you gone to a major medical center or university teaching hospital? The doctors usually try to collaborate and help solve problems.
Is that something you’ve done r would consider?
