Should I panic?

Have been sick since January.  I posted last week on the Rheumatology forum and will "paste" that for succinctness:

I suppose you could just call me an idiopathic mess at the moment! Since January, with new developments weekly:
diarrhea, night sweats, Alopecia, Rash on ears,
twitching/tremors(legs, hands, neck),

I am not able to put together into a coherent whole the array of signs, symptoms, and tests you list.

As to the freckles, I am not familiar with syndromes which produce new ones daiyl, as you describe.  Definitve diagnosis will most likely involve biopsy.  Hwever, I cannot think of any serious or panic-worthy condition which would mandate delaying surgery for this skin evaluation.

Best.
