Daisy, thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me. It is so much appreciated. I will be seeing my family Dr. tomorrow for to take a look at all this again. It's tough because Generally my allergies, actually all the time, my allergies have gone away once the redness and itchiness and soreness in my eyes goes away and that went away in September.
I'm just scared. I've had so many bad health things happen to me and I'm just so upset because I feel it's so unfair. I don't want to throw a pity party for myself but I just feel enough is enough. I think perhaps my binges and fat burners can play here and have perhaps finally taken a took (I'm hoping this is it). I will find out everything tomorrow and be sure to let you know. I have a great family Dr. When I went to him the first time he said if it got worse or the blood tests showed anything he would refer me to a ear nose/throat specialist.
Hoping that's all I'm about to walk into tomorrow.
Thanks so much for your reply!
I'm wondering what the blood you had done showed. Also, remember you had a CAT scan, MRI, and EEG, so you know all of those areas are in normal range. When we have anxiety issues, we tend to go off the deep end more than usual when something of the unknown nature happens, as anxiety meds can only do so much unless we want to be zombies. Firstly, stop looking up scary stuff on the internet. Someone with anxiety issues needs real anwswers, not possiblies from the internet. From someone who like myself suffers from chronic allergies symptoms, I can tell you the range of symptoms becomes enourmous the longer it goes on. This summer has been particularly difficult for many allergy/asthma sufferers, as you can see from the allergy forum. Your are your own best advocate for your health. As you will note from other peoples posts, most of the time these people have had to continue to push their way through the medical system to get answers. I don't know what your insurance situation is, but I think you difinitely need to see an ENT (ear, nose, throat) specialist, or a head and neck specialist. I would bet anything this has to do with chronic sinus/ asthma complications, because you are not losing weight, you sound like you're still able to exercise, which further tells me that it's a localized problem. As far as the cyst in the adams apple area, I had thyroid cancer and before this scares you, let me quickly say, thyroid cancer is one of the most easy cancers to take care of. As a matter of fact I like to call it the 'not so cancer' cancer. Cysts on the thyroid gland are not uncommon and they don't always mean cancer, but if it is, it's really not that bad. Mine was 15 years ago. I felt a small cyst, they biopsied and found it to be cancer, the doctor even told me that if he had to have cancer, this is what he'd choose because it's so treatable. They removed my thyroid, I went on synthroid, I get checkups every year, and I've been fine ever since. So don't let the fear of thyroid cancer bother you. If it is, it's not a really big deal. An ENT or head and neck doctor and find this out for you. Most of all, get brave, get out there to whatever it takes to get answers, and don't stop until you have found a doctor that will keep working with you until this is resolved. I know how frustrating this can be and time consuming when you have to make a living and get doc appts. in between, but relief is out there when you find the right doc who will take the time to listen to everything and do the necessary tests as well as send you to the right docs to further help you. Only you can push this through, so keep at it until your better. Also, you may want to really go over the meds your on with a doctor and see if any may be complicating your situation. I understand you need the Lorazopam, which is really important right now for you, but maybe some of the other things might be contraindicative to some of the other things your using. Also, I have found a psychiatrist is great for giving me the real lowdown on what anxiety meds are most helpful and what else may interfere with it. They have to know this stuff more so than a general practitioner (I was amazed how much more I knew about drug interference that I learned from a psychiatrist than my GP even knew!), because they are the main prescribers of these particular type of drugs. So, once again, you are your own best advocate, and someone out there can help you. If you even slightly feel like your not being listened to or taken seriously enought, move on to someone else, don't waste your time. Good luck, and I'll be checking to see how you're doing.
