is something wrong with me?

I am 16 years of age and have RSD. I have recently become very sick and my mom's a little worried because my sister has type 1 diabetes, my grandpa has heart disease, leukemia runs in my family, high blood pressure, and thyroid cancer. There's more but that's just the jist of it all. Over the past week and a half I've become sicker and sicker. I now sleep literally all day, and when I'm not I'm extremely tired. I am a very outgoing person and when I go out, I'm just not myself. My friends have even noticed that I've been throwing up a lot which I never do. Two times in this past week and a half, I have gotten ghostly white, no color in my lips, very hot, shaky, dizzy, and start throwing up and feel completely ill till I go to sleep. I'll fall asleep and sleep twenty four hours if you'll let me. I have asthma and have been doing my inhaler regualary but it's not helping. I will take three sips of my drink and feel like I just ran a marathon, completely out of breath. I have killer headaches and am very shaky. My ribs in my back hurt everytime I take a deep breath. Should I go to the hospital like my mom keeps asking me to do or will it blow over? Thanks.

You shoul go to the hospital. Get it checked out just to make sure that it doesn't get worse tone cause things can go wrong at any moment. For example... I was perfectly fine all year and then last march one night I got in the shower and my kidneys almost exploded in my abdomen. They were infected and I felt perfectly fine about 2 hours earlier. I don't want anythin bad to happen if you aren't sure what's going in. Best wishes

I think you need to see a doctor, but probably the ER is not the place to go unless you have an actual emergency.
