Heat intolerance, fatique, no energy

Hello, I had not been diagnosed yet. I saw some doctors but they don't know why I have those symptoms. Basic blood work came back negative. I have a huge heat intolerance, with temp over 71 F, can not take warm bath, can not eat anything warm,I have hard time to concentrate and communicate, abdominal pain, pain in left leg and hip.  Soon as the heat will hit me my face and fingers will be like on fire. I am having the same symptoms with emotional stress. When i have stressful situation  immediately my face is like on fire, I am having very dry heat in my face(it is coming from inside me, my breath is hot) and color of my face is deadly white. I think that something is happening with blood float at that moment, almost like blood is not coming to my face. The same time my fingers will get very swollen, fluffy, red and hot (I think the blood from face goes to fingers). When this happen - immediately I have pressure in my head (feel like something cracked in head), I get very fatigue and tired, have no energy. I have to lay down. I can not eat or drink anything warm, If I have only one sip of anything warm I get big sharp pain in my stomach/esophagus all my body will shake, huge heat in face and fingers, extremely fatigue, totally drained, sick, I have to lay down. I am not eating warm food for 8 years, I can not be outside in summer time, I can not cook (heat from stove makes me sick, even steam from warm plate would make me sick). Can anybody help me, please?

Hi Tonyad,
I hope everything is well with you. I would like to ask you what do you think which doctor should I see and what test should I have done? I can not get any answer from doctors, I know all my problems are related to herpes, but doctors are saying that herpes is pretty much not a big deal and they can not cost problem like this.Do you think my problem is related to autoimmune disorder? I saw neurologist twice but he has no idea why I have those symptoms, I don't think he believes me how much I am suffering with this.and how much pain I have each day.I don't know if this is your expertize, maybe you could tell me what other forum should I go to? I looked in to herpes community, but I have not see any post what would help me there. It seems to me like I have some complication cost by this virus. Please let me know what do you think I should do? Thank you very much.

Hello, thank you so much for your comment and for your advice. It means a lot to me.You are absolutely right about the stress. My speaking is fine if I am not stressing. But...I am stressing daily. It is my job what is stressing me.... I love my job, don't get me wrong. My bosses telling me that I am very good at it, they promoted me over the years twice (I did not asked for it) but I am stressing constantly, because the second language. I am working with public, so I have to talk & I am managing ten people.
Now to my medical problem...
I did not have too many testings done, I just know for sure that I have herpes 2. And that is when all my problems start. I was very healthy before. Please when you have time and your brain will not be mush.... pleeeeeeease look at my posts again. Any advice would be very appreciate it. Thank you and looking forward to hear from you again. Js

English is my language and suddenly several months ago I started stuttering, losing my words and the more I stressed about it the worse it was. Having dealt with anxiety myself the first thing I would say is slow down and find a way to not sress over your speech, you wrote more coherantly then I do sometimes.
If you are going to be in a place where you need to speak and you know what you are going to have to talk about make notes out so you can read them or show the person.

I don't have much medical advice at the moment except I was told autonomic disorders often start with a bad virus. Have you had any testing done? I have all the symptoms you listed to some degree and some days life just isn't happening, now that I have a good diagnosis, am getting off the wrong medication, and doing several right things I am able to do things that seemed like I would never do again.

Good luck, when my brain isn't mush I will look at your posts again and look at my medical tests again and see if there is anything I can add.
