Hi,
short summary. I am a 39 yo male. I have been sick for 3 years now. initially the symptoms came, stayed for a month or two then went away, except for some lingering fatigue, but since august 2012 they have been chronic. I suffer from constant dizziness (feeling drunk, being on a boat feeling), pain in stomach and constant nausea that at times get severe. seldom vomit. headaches frequently, daily flushing in neck and face, mental fatigue (not muscular fatigue) and after exercise it gets way worse (but again not in my muscles), at times constipation, sometimes diarrhea. I tend to have increased heart rate after eating, sometimes an odd feeling of shortness of breath, mostly at rest, sometimes chest pain.
I have been screened for carcinoid cancer repeatedly (CgA, 5-HIAA) always negative, pheocromocytoma negative, every kind of other blood tests (bloodcount, thyroid, liver, minerals, vitamins, lyme and loads of others) normal, CT scan of abdomen and brain normal, lung x ray normal, gastroscopy normal, ENT tests normal, ultrasound of liver, gall bladder, pancreas and heart normal. They found a parasite called blastocystis, eradicated 8 months ago (confirmed several times), but not better. I eat a gluten free, dairy free, egg free diet, and hardly no insoluble fibers. No one seems to have any clue what i suffer from. No medication or herbs have any effect against the two most debilitating symptoms, the nausea and dizziness.
I have though about CFS but as i have no muscular fatigue and not prone to infections it seems less likely. anxiety/depression but I have never been the anxious type and except for being depressed over my undiagnosed disease I have never felt depressed and antidepressant have had no effect as expected.
I have tried acupuncture, worked with a chinese doc, gone to a chiropractor. Unfortunately nothing has had any effect whatsoever.
Does anyone have any clue what it could be?
