I'll try and be as helpful in what's been going on without having to bore everyone to death :)
Ok, my problems started almost 2yrs ago. My pcp took blood work and at that time the only things that showed up were a high sedrate of 50+ (don't recall the actual number now) He sent me to a Rheum. who did more blood work. Everything was fine. Got tired of my pcp not doing much of anything to help so I found a new pcp who so far has been doing WONDERFUL to say the least. Just not fast enough for me for as terrible as I feel. Basically my symptoms fall under MS & Lymes type symptoms (easier then listing it all) I have had a brain MRI which was neg, Lymes tested 3x's which has been neg. Celia neg. hepatitis neg. HIV neg, RA, Lupus all neg. Sjogrens neg. B12 is borderline which we're trying shots now just to see if it's to low for me, was 236. I got my first shot 3 days ago and so far no diff. Also, pernicious anemia is neg. Here are some of my latest blood work results which some are fine, some are not so fine.

I've also had my thyroid checked which was normal, liver function which is all normal, ANA is 1:40, SSA 32, SSB is 11.CPK is low at 27 (30-135)
Some of my symptoms are pins and needles, my hands, feet and face feel really hot but no swelling or fever, constant headaches, night sweats, problems with sleeping, nausea, weight fluctuating, stomach cramping pain almost like I'm hungry, Sometimes I can't eat no more then a few bites and I'm full, Sometimes I don't eat for days and sometimes I eat like a total pig lol Vertigo, itchy skin with no rashes, stumbling, terrible upper back pain which so far they are saying is from bad muscle spasms that are straightening my upper spine, terrible, terrible fatigue to the point where I can not function, my muscles are going to nothing in my legs, heat intolerance, my glands where you get a sore throat tend to get annoying. They don't actually hurt but I can feel their slightly swollen, I sometimes have a difficult time swallowing to the point that I start choking (thankfully this doesn't happen often!) It also happens with drinks not just food/pills. Sometimes terrible chest pain when swallowing. A cough that seems to come and go. My Dr. has diagnosed me with cognitive disorder which also comes and goes. I'm around 130lbs give or take with the fluctuation in weight so anywhere from 125-135 in a given month. I'm 40yrs old. And right now this is about all I can think of. Anyone have any ideas, clues what could possibly going on???
My next Dr. appt. is Nov. 28th, she wants to check my WBC count again and she said if it's still high she wants to investigate that. She also has me going for a chest x-ray for the cough. I'm sure it's not a cold because I've had this annoying cough for 8yrs now. Also, been told No on fibro and Chronic Fatigue. Also my sed rate tends to jump around a bit. Last checked it was pretty low.
Anyhow, any thoughts or ideas I can mention to her would be great. She does a great job at listening and taking time to try and figure out what's going on.
