pls help?

Hi, I am 34 and a mother of 2, finding life to be a struggle at present, symptoms are-

Headaches Intermittent blurry vision Severe excess sweating Depression/anxiety Light and noise sensitive Insomnia - no refreshed sleep Nausea IBS Painful neck/lymph nodes Poor short term memory Joint pain, severe finger joint pain, shoulder pain, general body all over pain Fatigue that I can't even explain, deathly tired

Also suffer with palpitations and am on sotolol for SVT

I have generally felt ill/fatigue since having glandular fever when I was roughly 21, have found that even the common cold that every body else has knocks me for 6, whilst all others have the ability to carry on?

Seems I have good days and bad, some days I can get on with work and daily tasks, yet others I feel unable to even stay awake, the pain in my fingers is horrendous, even to pick things up?

I can't exercise like I used to, I hardly go out as am always tired, my kids always moan cos I am always tired and in pain.

Whatever it is I have, antidepressants seem to make the pain/ache worse?

I can't even describe the fatigue - its just like I have worked 75 hours and feel sickly tired?!

Does anyone have any idea as to what this could be? My grandmother had MS and my father has all the same symptoms as me and he had never been diagnosed either?

Pls help?

Maybe an infection or chronic fatigue syndrome.  could also be autoimmune or maybe a hormonal imbalance since you are so young,

I am no doctor, but I have tons of health problems and am disabled with back and arthritis.  I am just going b y stuff I went or am going through,  But I am much older.

By the way, two kids are tiring remember that..
