Please help me find out what is wrong with me?
Over the last 6 + months I haven’t been feeling right and haven’t been feeling myself I am normally a very energetic person, very bubbly on the go, I want to do things and can’t sit still but I think ever since the start of this year I haven’t been myself. My friends who know me best have noticed and so has my partner Luke and he knows me inside and out and has started saying he thinks something is wrong and he is confirming my concerns, he told me to write down a list of how I have been feeling so I have and here it is:
I am constantly getting my allergic rash all over my body lately but I am very very careful with what I eat and I got another attack but didn’t have anything that would set it off but then also I get cravings for foods I don’t normally want, but then I get waves of nausea.
I am so extremely fatigued, I’m so tired and lethargic and it really isn’t like me I am bubbly and energetic and full of life and I haven’t felt like that in ages, I go to sleep but I never feel refreshed after waking up and I know something is wrong and its more than just sleep apnea and my partner and I are now worried.
I am getting lots and lots of muscle pain and weakness all over my body in my legs in my hands in my feet. I am mentally, emotionally and physically tired and just exhausted of being like this and if you ask anyone I was a very energetic person I could walk around the city all day and still have energy to do it again. I have noticed a sore throat that keeps recurring and my eyes sometimes becoming blurry and then other times being dry and I can’t stop rubbing them.
I have gotten headaches and migraines increased in the last 6 months and they are more severe then I have ever had and a lot more frequent, which I think has affected my concentration level and memory skills I normally have an amazingly great memory and I am forgetting things I really shouldn’t, like I know everyone’s numbers in my family and I am forgetting them and other things that are little but I know it’s not like me to forget things like that.
I am having terrible trouble with my concentration and I can hardly focus at all, and that is something I have never had trouble with, I have been told I sometimes space out where as other times I just don’t feel right. I have noticed that I am sometimes so quick and alert and other times I am useless and it’s like I am not using my brain at all or it’s on holidays.
I have been having chest pains and shortness of breath and I use my puffer but it doesn’t help at all and I am having more dizzy spells. And as you know I am depressed and my partner has noticed I have become more and more anxious and having panic attacks and very weird mood swings and my partner calms me down but I have detected he has been saying are you ok? And that he is worried about me? more often and it is increasing.
I have been sick like this once before but now I am just wanting to know what other people think?

The symptoms could be due to hormonal imbalance of PCOD, anemia, diabetes, hypothyroidism, or due to kidney or liver problems. Another possibility is sleep disturbances (like sleep apnea, imbalance of rapid eye and non rapid eye movement sleep etc.). You may sleep your customary 7-8 hours and yet feel fatigued. You need sleep studies to rule this out. Other possibilities are chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, low Vit b12, low iron, low calcium, sodium and potassium. Persisting EBV infection or mono can also be the cause. Myalgia or muscle pain is commonly seen with viral fevers. It is more in children than in adults. The various reasons for myalgia or muscle ache are Dengue, viral flu, lupus, Lyme’s, malaria, polio, electrolyte disturbance especially low potassium (so serum electrolytes should be done), dehydration, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, inflammation of muscles or myositis (hence CPK-MB should be done), high eosinophil counts, use of certain drugs like statins, and post viral fatigue syndrome. A comprehensive investigation is required keeping all the points in mind. Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined.
Take care!
