Hello,

Below is the list of my diagnosis, but I have a story rather than conditons. I'm 27 year old man, 6ft 3, weird that I have a wingspan of 6ft 6 1/2. I'm 17 stone and try to maintain weight by health eating. I've recently quit smoking cigarettes. Day to day I struggle with standing for too long sitting in one position too long. I have back pain everyday, I have cramps that fluctuate depending on activity or not. I dont know any area of my body without pain. I struggle with walking and often have falls. I wasn't always like this, I had used to be able to play a full 90mins in an 11 a side football game. Afterwards I was in severe pain but brushed it off. I struggle socially with friends and any relationships. I struggle with moods and processing of emotions and stress. I've been getting worse for the past 10 years. My doctors keep looking at 1 conditon at a time. I'm being messed around by the national health service. I'm looking for any guidance or advice on any or all of my conditions. Also looking if anyone else in my age group has similar issues or long term conditons. I'm being piled up with diagnosis and no support afterwards. Just medication. Can anyone help?...

Hey Kurt.

Sorry to hear you're having such a tough time. I am a similar age and also have experience with a shopping list of past diagnosis over the last decade, of doctors and such focusing on one area (adhd, panic disorder, ocd, depression, somatoform disorder/conversion disorder, fnd are the highlights lol). Getting a clinical assessment, meds, and nothing else just been a revolving door of frustration and hospitalizations for me. I know it's not really anything solid, me sharing all of this, but I guess knowing I wasn't alone has helped me at times.

Here if you ever want to chat.
