Enlarged Spleen
So quick break down, I've had an enlarged spleen for over 2 years now, and now measuring 17cm. Along with it came fatigue(can't work normal hours, can barely make it through my every day routines) digestive problems, muscle weakness, muscle tremors, damaged immune system. I have been through many many blood tests, multiple CT,ultrasounds,MRI, two bone marrow biopsy, muscle biopsy, a spinal tap, and a endoscopy. Out of all this everything has come back pretty normal with the odd abnormalities with no reasoning. Endoscopy came back with esophagitis and hiatal hernia(no answer to enlarged spleen) spinal tap came back with slightly high white blood cell count(no reasoning)
I'm tired of feeling like this and have gone to so many different specialists and still have no answers. I just want my life back. Has anyone been through something similar and been given any treatment or answers? Also last resort was to remove spleen, three surgeons have said no to removal.
