I have been sick 11 times since new years!!

Okay, so ive come to an end with this utter ********. I can't take it anymore. I need some help. And being a hypochondriac, it doesn't help. Lol. Here is some background knowledge:

Until recently, i haven't vomited since i was 8-9 years old.

I am a 15 year old, white male from ontario, canada

I usually never ever get sick. If i do, it'll hit me hard with the flu for like a week. One time every three hears. Ill have a bad fever, typical symptoms of influenza. I dont get flu shots. That doesnt sit right with me. I might get in the odd cold too, and itll last for a day or two.

Now, back to the problem.

Lets just stArt by telling you that this school year, i have been sick 11-12 times. Since new years, 10-11 times. The first literally being on new years day (couldnt go out with my buddies lol).

I never remember the symptoms being any different every time. So you could say that i have the same symptoms every time, but they do vary in intensity. One bout, the sore throat could be worse. Another time, the cough, etc.

The symptoms are

-ALWAYS a fever. I have never taken temperature but i know what a fever feels like. Ill wake up and feel dizzy to walk, body aches, headache, etc. i feel woozy just standing up. Hate fevers. Its a l w a y s the same fever too. Its not too intense or anything, and it tends to be the first symptom to subside.

-always a sore throat, but one time jt was so bad i thought i had strepp (i came up negative)

- a phlegmy cough , usually cough up green piles of phlegm. During yesterdays bout (11th time)  (before it turned into a cold today?) i even vomited twice, and i coughed up some brown phlegm with streak of blood. But the rest were green. Take note, prior, i havent vomited in 7 or 8 years. And the coughing has never been horrible or painful. Just typical flu/cold cough.

-fatigue

*i apoligize how long this will be. Theres just so much to say. Im a hypo so i have double the questions

See, my problem here is, i dont know if i have an infection and it is recurring symptoms. Or i dont know if i have some immunodeficiency or current depressed immune system causing me to catch significant amounts of illnesses. I think its an infection cause its the same symptoms every time, and i dont think its a depressed immune system because everytime i become sick it lasts for just 2-3 days at the most (body fights it off fast).

I started taking multivitimans april 1st. I thought that was the solve (d Deficiency, zinc etc.) but two days ago i got sick again (gone now). thats the longest ive gone without getting sick. Month and a half. After new years, i usually got sick every two weeks.

Everytime i recover i feel completely fine again. For two weeks normally. This time i went almost two months.

Im fit, have a fair diet (usually a lot of sugar) and i particularly have lots of organics. and i certainly am a bit underweight lol. Its Just my metabolism. I require alot of colories. But anyway, ive neevr changed my habits and i dont usually get sick, so why so often now? Im just so stuck.

If you have a solve, dont scare me lol. I am a hypo and it will staywith me for weeks. My doctors appointment is far away so i need some closure temporarily.

In summary, i get sick twice a week usually and its crazy. This is taking away from school and my life. My mom thinks im crazy and never lets me recover fully before going back to school. My dad blows it off like its nothing. Theres no one to speak to!

Thanks for anyone that can help!!!

Hi there...the most obviously question I have is have you been to the doctor during one of your bouts of sickness to have blood work done?  Maybe you do have an immune deficiency but how would you ever know if blood work isn't done.  There is no sense in sitting around guessing what is going on.
