May be nutritionally related

I have been having so many symptoms over the past 5 months.
Many people have mentioned it may be nutritional. My doctor seems to think I should see a dermatologist, but I think there is more to it.

Have you had blood work done to see your protein, vitamin, and mineral levels? If you are not eating and losing weight, then you would have issues with nutrition. Suggest blood work and additional medical testing from your MD.
