Autoimmune disorder ??

[Sabrina_j]

For the past 3 years now I have had medical issues happen in the course of 2's and 3's meaning when one thing goes wrong something else follows within weeks to 3 months after. I am a 34 year old female. I have 2 children. In 2013 I fell from a ladder 14 ft. High. About 2 months after I fell I had increased pain in my neck and right shoulder. For 6 months after the onset of pain it was discovered that I had a moderately herniated disc at C5-C6 vertebra that had pushed into my spinal cord. I was advised by my neurologist that surgery was needed in order to avoid any further damage as well as prevent any further permanent nerve damage. In February of that year I had a cervical discectomy and a bone graft was inserted to ensure my vertebra would fuse. At the same time I also had a Melanoma that needed to be removed. I was scheduled for the melenoma treatment 2 hours before my discectomy surgery. I healed from both however, 1 year later, I had increased right shoulder pain. I visited my orthopedic doctor where it was determined I had a torn rotator cuff, torn biceps tendon, and a series of other issues that managed to be summed up in a 3 page report of findings from the MRI that was conducted. My orthopedic surgeon recommended I have surgery to repair the biceps tendon to relieve my painful symptoms and help add stability back to my shoulder. I scheduled the surgery for March of 2014. Again in February of 2014 just before my shoulder surgery it was discovered that I had Cervical cancer. I was seen by my obgyn who performed a Leep procedure to remove the portions of tissue that contained the cancer cells. Then I had my shoulder surgery. I recovered as usual and healed. In December of 2015 I started to get really ill. I was sick to my stomach often, was loosing massive amounts of weight in short periods of time to the extent of 34 pounds in 3 weeks !! It was discovered I had a highly infected gallbladder and surgery was scheduled to be done 3 days after my first visit to the Gastroenterologist. Shortly after my gallbladder surgery and recovery was underway, I started feeling horrible pains in my back. It was discovered that I have a severly herniated disc at L5-S1 in my low back. Not only did they discover this but, the doctors also discovered that I had severe degenerative disc disease and in my whole low spine to the extent that every disc in my whole low spine is buldging except for the herniation at L5-S1 and a moderate herniation in the L3-L4. During this time my knee became increasingly aggravated where it would pop, swell, cause pain then give out. It was found that I have a complete tear in the meniscus tendon of my left knee. I was informed I need surgery to correct it however, I chose to put surgery off until I can no longer handle walking without falling. In March of this year 2016 I went for a follow up exam at the obgyn and during the exam it was discovered that I had stage 1 cervical cancer and because of previous history of having cancer cells in the past it was recommended I have a hysterectomy. My hysterectomy was scheduled for April and my uterus was removed. I recovered then started having problems with my left shoulder, stomach pains, and also increased pain in my neck. The stomach pains were caused from a kidney stone and stage 2 kidney disease, the increased neck pain from another disc herniation at C6-C7, and the shoulder pains are due to my left shoulder having a torn rotator cuff, and torn biceps tendon. Aside from the aforementioned issues I also have, ulner nerve entrapment, carpal tunnel, auto sclerosis, and arthritis. I am just frustrated that I keep having so many issues. I am wondering if there is an underlying illness potentially causing all of the tendons, nerves, and disc structures to weaken and be affected?? Or is all of this just coincidence ?? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this in it's entirety and offer advice.
