About Me: Female, Philadelphia - PA, member since Jun 2008
I just graduated from college and am currently in graduate school, since I can't seem to get enough of long lectures, homework, exams, and research. A few weeks before I graduated in May 2008, though, I began experiencing a litany of symptoms that prompted a doctor's vi ... [More] sit, lots of sporadic bloodwork, and the eventual realization that my thyroid appeared to be having problems...now, doctors can't figure out what's wrong with me since my thyroid bloodwork and tests change as often as the weather does, though they seem to err on the side of "normal". An MRI of my head in July 2008 revealed a large pineal cyst (13mm) and some unknown object sitting near one of my sinuses (according to my GP, but my neurologist isn't sure about this), and a "hallow" or shadowed spot in my left occipital lobe. Neurologists have diagnosed me as having migraines, but I'll be having a repeat MRI soon to look at the worrisome areas in my brain, again. To summarize: I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. I'm still hoping that somewhere, someday, a doctor will figure out what's going on with me so I don't have to feel sick for the rest of my life. [Less]

New symptom?

So I woke up this morning and my throat felt kind of clogged, as it usually does. I guess I have post-nasal drip throughout the night from allergies or whatever, but norma...[more]
