Yikes. That's a lot of illnesses rolled into one! Here's hoping you will get some relief from your illness. Thinking of you

Oh lord, that's a lot to deal with. Hope you get relief soon. I'm sure you've tried everything but I'm reading a book called the Whall's Protocol. It's by a Dr who has MS but its for any autoimmune condition and has a lot of self-help advice about diet, environmental factors etc. You might find it interesting.

Sorry, that should be Wahl's Protocol.
