A year ago I was 40 pounds lighter, very active - had two things happen. 1: think Early Preg loss. June I tore a ligament in ankle. Stille forced 2 be actv on it, & didn't stop until I developed knee trouble and this pocket of fluid well above the site of injury on my lower calf - started developing shocks in my shoulders, then debilitating pain in my left shoulder and upper back. Subsided on own. Depression set in = zolft, but didn't help. Doc did 2 things - gave pap for bc & said uterus a little big -not unheard of - had 3 big kids prev. Then for depres. put on Lamictal - Octobe. Weight up sharply clear fluid retention. December, my bp raised & put on Hydrochlorot. 2,3 days & had flushing on legs, then itched insanely - NO bumps. I'd scratch it'd quit & would start on another area - occurred cyclicly 1x day. Susp. Lamictal, stopped, but not the diuretic - cont. to swel. 3 wks of waiting for wash out relief - 0-
went back to the doc w/ huge swelling & devloping serious difficulty breathing sporad. & severe heartburn. Put on Zantac, ran stool sample. All neg. Put me on Flagyl just in case of a gut bact and had horrible gas from it. Heartburn gone.Still the rash, sent me to allergist. Standard scratch tst, all neg. Doc threw up hands and said ?? go to a rheumatologist, maybe Lupus. Said no way - NO butterfly rash, I have NO joint pain. Didn't see her a month, until swelling peaked. Took off hydrochlorot,put on Diazide. Rash reduced to < tingling, < itching cyc. 3 days and hit full on. Depressd, said go back on Lamictal -did for six weeks. Now @ present, & I just became ill with a stomach bug- stopped all meds. Itching better than ever. THen hit me like a truck 1 day, vision blurring (frgt mention that) pressure behind forhead, asthma, reflux. Now been off of meds for a week. Entire time (cumulatively) my abdomen feels full and menstrual ache, spotting per. mid-month. Feel need 2 urinate and can't, hurts if have interc.
No clue.
