lots of problems for 15 years and no answers !

SORRY IF THIS IS IN THE WRONG CATEGORY

my main health problems
I am sorry this is so long but this is only SOME of it

I have been suffering with various health problems for at least 15 years ( i am now 37 years old) and possibly
going back to when i was born,as yet i have had no proper diagnosis from any doctors
with them not bothering to look at ALL my symptoms together (this is because GP appointments
are only ten minutes long and they will only look at one problem at a time)
i have severe vertigo,numbness and tingling,repeated infections,vibrating,neck pain,head held to right,walking off to the right,hum / tinnitus ,headpain,eye pain,rash,and much more ..... all of this is on the right side of my body
does anyone have any ideas as i am desperate to get a diagnosis
thanks for reading

thank you so much for your ideas
i wasnt able to post the whole story as this doesnt give much space
i did see a neurologist about 6 years ago and they said there was nothing wrong but i have got a lot worse since then.
i will ask my doctor to re refer me
the trouble is that i have mental health problems and i am sure the doctor just thinks i am imagining things ! although i fail to see how the would think that when i recently had ludwigs angina and that is not something that i can fake !

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!


I read through your post very carefully and based on that I feel that you could possibly be suffering from glove-and-stocking neuropathy or from Sjogren's Syndrome. http://www.medicinenet.com/sjogrens_syndrome/page2.htm. Please consult a neurologist at the earliest. There are many causes of this nerve disorder including diabetes, hypothyroidism, chronic involvement of liver or kidney, chronic alcohol use etc. Upset stomach could be due to involvement of liver so food is not digested properly. Chances of your symptoms being due to autoimmune disorders like Sjogren's Syndrome are more. You will need to run more tests for the same.

It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
