Answer 1

Go to a new doctor and get a second opinion

Answer 2

stomach problems for that long are worrisome. I don't know what to say to that. Obviously your doctors don't know either. Try a couple of these things in between trips to different doctors:

Eat no refined sugar, and little other sugars or starch.
Clean up your diet to a high protein, high benificial fat, low carb, low saturated fat, high fiber diet. Take a multivitamin daily with your first meal. Also take calcium/magnesium/zinc pills, a flax oil and maybe a fish oil, at least 5x the usrda of vitamin c, and Kyolic brand aged garlic supplement.

take hot showers, but 2 or 3 times during the showers, turn the water on the coldest it will go, or a little warmer if you can't handle it. This will stimulate circulation and immune response.

Stretch your throat way backwards in a standing backwards lean or backbend to see if that is part of the problem.

While you are at it, a general stretching routine like yoga or t'ai chi warmups is a very good idea when sick.


Consider whether you have made any changes in your environment which could cause sickness. Are you poisoning yourself somehow?

If your sinuses are draining, the drainage could cause some stomach discomfort... Perhaps that is all. Good luck in becoming well.

Answer 3

yopur problem can be easily solved by 1) getting a week end off work 2) getting at least 8 hours sleep 3) start taking a throat soother - such as cepocal and about the stomache ache.. try either eating more or eating less and the doctor could probably just think that your a very minor case , try going to a walk in clinic or your regular doctor ( just one that you havent seen yet) and ask them thier opnion!

Answer 4

you probably need a second opinion

most physicians today are merely guessing as to your disease or illness and really guessing when it comes to curing. All doctors fear a malpractice suit and hence do not prescribe any quick but dangerous cures lest they get sued.

Thus, most doctors just allow the patient to suffer thru and allow the pest illness to run its course and go a way.

Answer 5

Sounds like strep. Go again and have them give you a strp test. If he didn't give you antibiotics, then that's what you need for strep if you test positive for it. They just put a swab on your tongue and test that; it takes 5 minutes. I'd call his/her office and say that you've already seen the doctor and that you just want the test, so you're not paying to see the doctor AGAIN. Strep is one of the only colds that needs antibiotics.

Answer 6

Sounds serious; you need to have the doctor do blood work so he can determine whether or not you have something infectious. If he won't do the tests, go to another doctor. Hope you feel better!

Answer 7

sounds like the flu. It can take anywhere from 7-24 days to get rid of the flu. Drink lots of water, get lots of rest, stay warm, and take tylenol to the keep the fever down.

Answer 8

Answer 9

You could possibly have mono, but it's most likely just the flu

Answer 10

this is very disturbing. It could be cancer. It could be HIV. Then again, you could have a cold.
