I have a 14yr. old daughter who has been experiencing these symptoms for the past six weeks and I cannot get a Dr to even acknowledge this is serious much less a diagnosis:
Severe joint pain in elbows, wrists, knees, & ankles
Shoulders & back aching
Fatigue
Loss of energy
Headache (across forehead, top of head, & back of head)
Difficulty concentrating
Stiffness in back, shoulders, arms, & legs
Pale skin
Dark circles under eyes
Rapid Heartbeat/Pulse Rate
Shortness of breath
Chest tightening
Left Side under ribs feels stabbing pain
Insomnia / Difficulty getting to sleep / Wake up in middle of night / Restless sleep / Non refreshing sleep
Clumsiness
Cold hands and feet
Reduction in breast size & fullness (4 inch loss)
Low body temperature
Mouth Sores/Bad Breath
I realize that it could be more than one thing but they've only done blood work and X-Rays never a CAT Scan, MRI, or any "serious" test to get to the bottom of this. I feel as though I am beating my head against a wall to try to get someone to help me.
Is there anyone who can lead me in the proper direction?
Thank You,
Ptama
