Strange Illness.. Need some input or suggestions.?

I got sick in July with a cronic sinus infection. Along with the sinus issue, I lost around 15-20 pounds and became very tired. I also started having hand numbness. I have made several visits to several Doctors and specialists with no answers. I am still tired, and the hand numbness comes and goes. I have also had hip/groin pain as well. What is weird is most of my weight has come back but my legs, hips and arms still seem very skinny. I have been tested for mono, lyme disease, hiv, dibeties and nothing is coming up. They are checking for lupus but so far the ANA is coming up neg. Any suggestions?

    I agree if there is an ailment it quite is likely a heavy gas. it would want to also be a pair of different perpetrator chemical elements. even regardless of the straightforward undeniable truth that therefore the sensationalized comments sound like the similar effect a foggy lake in Mexico had about fifty years interior the previous solid previously a volcano erupted. chance is this grew to develop into into not a vent regardless of the straightforward undeniable truth that, until eventually there have been comments of different unusual events close to to the similar position at modern-day. it really is going to really be a warmth spring that's volatile to human beings not sensible. the basically different end i'm in a position to judge conceivable, all section ailment concepts aside, is this is a comet middle, not a meteor. in which case the radiation will be more desirable acceptable. And if this grew to develop into correct right into a comet middle it matches both or 3 different comet a lot which have fallen interior the previous couple of months, probable fragments of the similar comet after it broke aside and travelling at diverse speeds. Now if this is a mutant Zombie ailment I actually have my machete waiting.

    If it is bothering you physically, then keep looking for a doctor who can help. Maybe an ear, nose and throat doctor could help since the symptoms started with chronic sinus infections. The old adage rings true: Go for a second opinion (or third, or fourth, or fifth...)

    Philip,

    I have been very sick for over 4 years with something undiagnoised.

    Have the doctors check your HHV6. It can be checked in the same test aas lupus. Epstein Barr, CHronic Fatigue. I wish you well.
