Symptoms/Don't Know Where to Start

[scarlettsweb13]

Hi, I'm new here and I have so many symptoms/concerns that it might cost a fortune to go to the doctor and tell them these things one at a time because most of the time, they only address one thing at a time. I know this post is very long, but any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! For basic information, I am a 24 year old woman who looks like a teenager; but feels weak like an elderly person. My eating habits may not be perfect, but overall I eat healthy (mostly unprocessed foods and usually eat healthier proteins instead of too much meat) and drink a lot of water. I also try to take a multi-vitamin every day. My blood pressure is completely normal, I do not have diabetes or cholesterol, I really do not have much stress at all in my life, I sleep well etc.

1.) I am always getting sick. Seems like I am sick more than I am not sick. My body never feels strong or healthy and I am always feeling weak and tired. Most of the time when I get sick, I cannot function normally and stay in bed which leads to not being able to work normally. Often when I get sick, I feel more depressed than usual.

2.) My head and ears constantly feel stuffy. This is whether I am sick or not. My head and ears never feel clear at all. I have a mild hearing loss (got my ears checked and no earwax buildup) and my ears hurt at times. I constantly have to ask people to repeat themselves which gets annoying for them and I tend to feel left out in group settings because I cannot hear what they are saying! I get dizzy often and tend to lose my balance while standing once in a while. My vision is also not very clear and even with glasses on, sometimes I need to drive up right in front of the traffic light to see if it is red or green. I also need to have text very close to me to read it (cannot see street signs/store signs etc.) My vision is much worse at night (when driving etc.)

Your hair could be falling out from being so nervous and upset.  But, a good doctor should be able to determine the cause if it's an illness.

I am so sorry to hear that you have been ill for so long.  Meniere's disease is a Vertigo that progresses with loss of hearing, malaise and sometimes nausea.  It can make one quite irritable as one never feels well.  Laying down will sometimes help  stop the feeling of motion or stuffiness in the ears.  Which may be why you lay down as it makes you feel a little better.  For your eyes, you may want to try Bilberry and Lutein which are nutrients that help one see better.  I can imagine that your OCD  Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (touching with both hands, etc.) come from the frustration of not being able to see or hear well.  You might want to consult a Neurologist to see if he/she can help you.  Not feeling well can also make one touchy and angry with life and the whole world in general.  I wish I could do or say something that would help you -truly.  Please take care and see a new doctor soon.

your thyroids can change in an instant.i had my thyroids checked before and then a couple of months later i found out i have acute hyperthyroid. good luck

[scarlettsweb13]

Thanks for the suggestion, but I did get my thyroid checked a couple years ago and I also got an ultrasound to make sure there was nothing wrong with my uterus because of my unusual menstrual patterns etc., but the tests showed that there was nothing wrong with either.

16.) I do not ever notice my surroundings or any changes to people/things. If I were to walk to my car at night, I would not really notice someone standing to the side or something. I never notice when people get a haircut etc. I completely miss out on certain things that happen.

17.) I have other little odd behaviors such as hitting the lock button on the car alarm key about ten or eleven times once I leave the car, running to the house from the car and quickly opening/locking the door if it is night etc.

I may have gotten down mostly everything, but if there are any additional questions; please ask. I know this is a lot to read, but maybe one of you would have an idea on what is wrong or where to start or any suggestions I may not have thought of. Thank you! From the outside and perhaps even through blood tests etc.; I appear to be a normal, healthy woman; but these symptoms are driving me crazy and they are not allowing me to live a healthy, functional life.

13.) I cannot do/feel anything halfway. With everything in my life, I'm either in 100% or 0%. I am an extremely passionate person which can be a good or bad thing depending on the circumstance. Right now, I'm 0% about most things in my life because I've come to a point where I have a heart of stone basically.

14.) This may be unrelated, but I have a weird instinct that whatever sensation/feeling I get on one side of my body, I have to instantly get that sensation/feeling on the other side of my body or it does not feel right/makes me restless. If my left hand touches something cold, my right hand automatically reaches for that same cold thing or something similar with the same sensation. If my right foot steps on something grainy, my left foot immediately searches for that grainy surface to get the same sensation. If someone shakes my right hand, I try to shake someone else's or that same person's hand with my left hand so the same feeling will be there. There has always been this weird, extreme urge to feel the same sensation on both sides of my body.

15.) I do not like to be touched/hugged at all. I tend to pull away from hugs and my skin feels very irritated when touched. I especially hate being touched on the face to the extent of anger. Once my cousin touched my face gently and my automatic reaction was to slap her face. I feel very defensive/sensitive/offended to touches etc.

11.) I have never really been interested in having a romantic relationship. Sure, I have had slight crushes on guys and daydream once in a while; but when it comes to having an actual relationship; I have always avoided it although I have been asked out by many guys over the years. I have an unhealthy perception of relationships/marriage and I never want to get married because I know myself too well. I am extremely possessive, controlling, and jealous. I would not want the guy to even look at or say hi to another girl. I honestly feel like the only way I would ever have a successful marriage would be if he and I were to live in the middle of nowhere without any people around for hundreds of miles.

12.) I do not have a healthy attachment to anyone. I feel as if anyone in my life that is here today were to be gone tomorrow, I would be perfectly fine with no problem. This goes along with my heart of stone. I feel like I want to be by myself for the rest of my life and that I do not want anyone in my life.

10.) I don't know if these could be signs of any physical illness, but although I have excellent professional qualities/skills; I have very poor social skills. I can have conversations/debates with anyone and I can be very talkative, but I cannot keep any close relationships/friendships. I am extremely blunt and sometimes harsh with my honesty/opinions and find it difficult to sympathize with most people in most situations. I have been through a lot in my childhood and battled years of deep depression in my teenage years, but I have reached a point where I feel like I have a heart of stone. I am now very selfish, stubborn, and want to have everything done my way without compromising even slightly. No one can influence me in even the slightest way once I have made up my mind about something. I often interrupt people in conversations and always have to have the last word. I am very immature for my age in most ways and I can relate more to children than to people my own age. I find it easier to have patience with/talk with children or elderly people than people close to my age. I would rather spend my free time playing children's video games/watching children's movies than going out to party or to a movie or anything that people my age do. I can be even more childish sometimes than young children and even people much younger than me treat me like I am younger than them or I am a small child sometimes. People tell me I'm very pretty, but I never do anything with myself that girls my age do. I only do basics (hygiene etc.). I don't wear make-up, fix my hair, or dress up in any way. I have absolutely no concern about how I look or how others perceive me. I never really get nervous. I have spoken on stages with a crowd of 500 people, but even that does not make me nervous at all. I seem to have very few natural human emotions (nervousness, anxiety, worry, self-consciousness, etc.)

6.) I have been losing hair for a few years now and my hair takes forever to grow even a tiny bit. I am Eastern Indian so this is not a common problem among that community. Most of the people I know from my ethnicity have long hair or their hair grows fairly quickly or normally. I take care of my hair (no heat/dye or anything), but it keeps getting thinner and does not grow at all.

7.) I bruise/cut very easily. If I bump into a wall or something on the floor or anything, the pain is much more severe than it should be for normal people. If someone bumps into me, lightly pokes me or slaps my arm or punches my arm using the least amount of impact; it genuinely hurts a lot and the pain lasts a while. My cuts take forever to heal and there are many scars on me from cuts that happened even 8 years ago. I have extremely low tolerance for pain.

8.) I seem to have weak bones which feel like they can break easily or without too much impact. When I was ten years old, my brother once kind of bent my pinky finger back or hit it or something (don't remember) and that pinky finger is crooked even now while the other pinky is straight.

9.) My body is always too tired to exercise or move much physically. When I do exercise, my body feels so weak and cold and I even get sick sometimes.

3.) When I am menstruating, it barely lasts one or two days and very little blood comes out. However, I have severe pain sometimes that I can barely stand up and the pain is not in my stomach; the pain is at the place where the blood is coming from.

4.) No matter how much water I drink, urinating is always an issue because although I urinate enough; towards the end it really hurts/burns sometimes and the discomfort only goes away after a couple of hours. On the days I do not drink enough water, the pain and discomfort is severe.

5.) I have lived in Houston, Texas my whole life which can be one of the hottest/most humid places ever; but I am always cold especially in the winter. I have a heater in my room that I always keep at 75-80 degrees because my body gets very cold sometimes especially behind my knees/my feet/in my bones etc. No matter how hot it gets or how much physical activity I'm doing, my body does not sweat much (very little). Although I am mostly always cold, when I get sick; sometimes I feel very cold for five minutes and very hot for a couple minutes and so on.
