What’s going on with me ?...

[Latha84]

I am at 37 year old male UK, my symptoms started in 2019 with really bad right sided head pain which lasted for a good few weeks went back and forward to GPs had bloods taking and then got sent to hospital for a CT with contrast of the head. The results came back all normal but my symptoms had manifested into having really bad night sweats,nausea, feeling very light headed/faint like and mild pains in the chest, so then i got referred to a infectious diseases clinic as this all started after i came back from a week in Scotland and i work with raw sewage.

I had a mass of test done in this clinic 10 different blood test, 3 stool sample, 24 hour urine sample, ECG and a CT scan of head and torso with contrast and from all these test everything came back normal.

So back and forward to GPs i went had lots of blood test carried out for the like of Lymes, Weils and H pylori. I had chest X-ray, 2 more ECGs and i paid for a private MRI scan of my head all these test came normal as well.

But my symptoms had gained.

Brain feels fatigue when talking and learning stuff

dizzy/foggy heads and if i turn quickly i seem to get dizzy very easy

feeling like am not in control of my legs but i can move them fine

Migraine type head pains

burning/ itchy feeling in back of head ( lasts for a week or so )

waking up dizzy for short time ( only happened a handful of times)

left blood shot eye ( comes for a couple of days and goes)

nausea mainly in morning

chest pain/ burning in middle of chest( comes for few weeks and goes again)

Arm and leg muscle twitch( mainly when resting)

stiff and achy index and thumb on both hands( comes and goes)

crampy feeling in leg muscle ( only had this a few times)

burning feeling on outside of left calve ( only had this for a few days April 2020)

a feeling like i have a hair in between my big and second toe of my right foot ( lasted about a week)

pains in bottoms of my heels

tingling in my left toes when walking or i tap my toes( lasts about a week)

hands feel like they are wet ( only had this once lasted a few hours)

tingling in hands when clapping or using power tools

random spikes in heart rate only lasts a couple of seconds

feeling pulse in whole body

feeling shaky or nervous

stomach pains

never feel fully rested

muscle fatigue

tinnitus only lasts a couple of seconds

tongue feels arched ( lasted a few days)

So i was referred to a syncope clinic and had a tilt table test, 24 hr heart and blood pressure test and a echo of the heart these all came back normal.

I had a 20 mins phone call appointment with a rheumatology all he seemed to be looking for was arthritis as i have had psoriasis since 2013. so had X ray and echo of hands and feet and bloods done which have all came back normal.

So now i have been referred to neurology which i seen on monday but felt very rushed and all she seemed to focus on was my migraines. I have had some bloods taking and she is going to send me for more scans of the head and neck to rule things out but she does not think anything is going on ?

I have had 2 eye tests, private york food intolerance ( only mild to cows milk so now drink oat milk), private CBT and private Physio ( dry needling and massage).

I have been only sertraline 50mg for months made no difference

lansoprazole 30mg for 4 weeks made no difference

The only thing that has been suggested all the way though this is stress and anxiety ??? but why and how can it cause all this when i was fit and health before this all happened.

If you got this far thanks for reading any body had any of these symptoms ?

thanks

The last half of your symptom list does not sound particularly serious. See what the neurologist has to say, and maybe have another talk with the rheumatologist. After that, talk to a psychiatrist. How is the rest of your life going?

Hi thanks for the reply, yeah I ve had a lot of different symptoms but they keep changing so every time I go to the GPs I think they must think am making these up.When I seen the neurologist she didn’t seemed to worried but I don’t know if it was because she was behind in time and seemed rushed but she did reflex’s and nerve test and looked into my eyes and said all seemed fine. I suppose I will just have to wait for the scans and blood test to come back and I think she wants me to do a sleep study as well but the NHS is running a bit slow at the moment with COVID going on. Life was great up to the point this all started no health worries and was very fit and healthy for my age. The only thing that was changing was we were have our first child but I did not feel anxious about ?
