Please help me, I think I may be very sick?

Question

I have been feeling very awful for about 2 years now. I have been to the emergency numerous times from the incredible pain I was feeling. I became very frustrated because nothing was showing up on tests except very irritated lymphnodes. The doctors have not figured out what is wrong, I know that not everyone feels the pain I do.
I have pain in my upper and lower stomach, mostly upper.
I also occasionally have a very terrible pain in my upper back.
I have have lost my good eye sight, I have to wear glasses or contacts now.
My memory has become terrible, I am only 16.
I stay the same weight even if I eat large amounts of food frequently.
I am always very cold.
I do not like eating very much because it hurts so badly afterward and I feel like throwing up.
I have become very pale which is weird for my family, we are all olvie skined.
My stool is very loose and usually floats (I know gross, but doctors are usually interested in that)

Please help, I don't know what to do anymore.

Answer 1

In my opinion, may be you have got peptic ulcer or pancreatitis or Irritable bowel syndrome.
Here are the symptoms of these 3 conditions:

Peptic Ulcers Symptoms

Ulcers do not always cause symptoms. Sometimes, a serious complication such as bleeding is the first sign of an ulcer.

The most common symptom of peptic ulcers by far is abdominal pain.

The pain is usually in the upper middle part of the abdomen, above the belly button (navel) and below the breastbone.


The pain can feel like burning or gnawing, and it may go through to the back.


Pain often comes several hours after a meal when the stomach is empty.


The pain is often worse at night and early morning.


It can last anywhere from a few minutes to several hours.


The pain may be relieved by food, antacids, or vomiting.
Other symptoms of peptic ulcers include the following:

Nausea


Vomiting


Loss of appetite


Loss of weight
Very severe ulcers sometimes cause bleeding in the stomach or duodenum. Bleeding is sometimes the only symptom of an ulcer. This bleeding can be fast or slow. Fast bleeding reveals itself in one of the following ways:

Vomiting of blood or dark material that looks something like coffee grounds: This is an emergency and warrants an immediate visit to an emergency department.


Blood in the stool or black, tarry, sticky-looking stools
Slow bleeding is often more difficult to detect, because it has no dramatic symptoms.

The usual result is low blood cell count (anemia).


The symptoms of anemia are tiredness (fatigue), lack of energy (lethargy), weakness, and pallor.



Acute Pancreatitis Symptoms

The most common symptom of acute pancreatitis is pain. Almost everybody with acute pancreatitis experiences pain.


The pain may come on suddenly or build up gradually. If the pain begins suddenly, it is typically very severe. If the pain builds up gradually, it starts out mild but may become severe.


The pain is usually centered in the upper middle or upper left part of the belly (abdomen). The pain may feel as if it radiates through to the back.


The pain often begins or worsens after eating.


The pain typically lasts a few days.


The pain may feel worse when a person lies flat on his or her back.

People with acute pancreatitis usually feel very sick. Besides pain, people may have other symptoms.


Nausea (Some people do vomit, but vomiting does not relieve the symptoms.)


Fever, chills, or both


Swollen abdomen which is tender to the touch


Rapid heartbeat (A rapid heartbeat may be due to the pain and fever, or it may be a compensation if a person is bleeding internally.)

In very severe cases with infection or bleeding, a person may become dehydrated and have low blood pressure, in addition to the following symptoms:

Weakness or feeling tired (fatigue)


Feeling lightheaded or faint


Lethargy


Irritability


Confusion or difficulty concentrating


Headache

If the blood pressure becomes extremely low, the organs of the body do not get enough blood to carry out their normal functions. This very dangerous condition is called circulatory shock or is referred to simply as shock.


Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptoms

Irritable bowel syndrome affects each person differently. The hallmark of IBS is abdominal discomfort or pain. The following symptoms are also common:



Abdominal cramping and pain that are relieved after bowel movements


Alternating periods of diarrhea and constipation


Change in the stool frequency or consistency


Gassiness (flatulence)


Passing mucus from the rectum


Bloating


Abdominal distension

To make the diagnosis, you should be examined by a very skillful gastroenterologist.
He may propose you to do the abdominal ultrasound, the gastroduodenoscopy, the coloscopy, measuring blood amylase and lipase, the liver functions or even a MSCT 64 scan of your abdomen to confirm the diagnosis.

Hope that may help you!
Good luck!

Answer 2

it sounds like you're flushing fat, stop eating so much oil and fat, examine milk to fat ratio if you eat any cheese, I would suggest not eating anything w/baking powder since the aluminum, which is what it is, blocks absorbsion of almost everything good. You need to drink about 5 warm glasses of water filled with epsom salt a day and stay near the toilet to flush impurities that are obviously irritating your glands. Concentrate on eating fruits, sugar is much better than corn syrup. Avoid any non dairy creamer, it is aluminum. Also too much milk can coat the intestines and rob you of energy. High fructose corn syrup is made with a small amount of sulfuric acid, it makes all kinds of cells swell in a bad way. There is such a long list of what you need I can only suggest consulting a nutritionist. No, you don't have miliary tb.

Answer 3

Emergency rooms are only for emergencies.....they are about stabilizing and moving you on. They usually refer you to specialist and if they have, you really need to contact that specialist. If they did not refer you to a specialist you should go to see your primary care doctor, which is the one you should see first and foremost. What he will do is order some testing and then based on your tests he may refer you to a specific specialist. This is usually the process you need to go through in order for some insurances to pay for a specialist....you have to be referred. If you don’t have to be referred, I would just contact an Endocrinologist and/or a GI physician and go from there.

Answer 4

Get a second opinion from a different doctor. If your lymphnodes are irritated then something is definetly wrong. Where are they located? If they are at the bottom of your neck or in your collar bone area, you need to seek medical advice at once. There are so many different things that could be wrong...try checking out www.webmd.com

Answer 5

It looks like you are not absorbing anything you eat (and are therefore anemic, therefore pale) and your body is not growing because it is not getting the nutrients it needs.
If your doctor has ruled out stomach cancer, celiac disease, Crohn's disease, stomach ulcer, thyrroid, then you need to go to a digestive specialist. Have you been tested for lead poisoning? What tests were run?

Answer 6

hi there! first if you are a women go quickly to an endo-cronoligest. they will see and hear all that is wrong. you need help NOW. if you are a man go see a ur-oligest. you may have need of a indo-scope. but which ever you are the ER is not a place to help, and they cost you 4 times more than a specialist. get help asap it is serious.

Answer 7

Somebody mentioned this to you in one of your previous questions, and I think you need to check it out, which is the possibility that you have celiac/coeliac disease. Please look it up on Wikipedia and elsewhere online. It is an autoimmune disease that causes immune system derangement and intestinal damage, brought on by eating wheat, barley, rye, and oats, in any amount. Over time it leads to physical exhaustion, symptoms of maluntrition, weight loss, anemia, diabetes, depression. The only treatment is to completely avoid these foods, and anything containing them. I'd be glad to discuss things with you further if you wish. Just send me an email message. Best wishes.

Answer 8

Hi Shadeblitz, are you keeping up with regular partial water changes, gravel vacuuming & gently rinsing the filter media in old tank water to keep your parameters spot on? over 90% of supposed fish ailments [& about the same number of needless deaths] can be attributed to poor water conditions from bad tank maintenance. Check the attached link to see if you need to revise any of your methods. Scroll down to 'Cleaning Your Tank'.

Answer 9

It could be an allergy to milk/milk products, wheat products, peanuts or some other food. Talk to a doctor about this possibility. You may need to see an allergist. Allergies can strike at anytime and at any age.
