Q: abscess shingles and pneumonia
asked by: JGibson on June 22nd, 2009

In the past 6 years I have had many problems that have baffeled many doctors.
All of my blood work comes back fine but I still get sick.
Here is what I have had in the 24 months.

4 Perianal abscess
6 cases of shingles (over 24 month period)
1 case of pneumonia which I am getting over right now.
1 cyst removed from hand
3 cases of bronchitis
5 sets of Kidney Stones (this was over 3 years changed diet each time but they still come back)
Migraines at least once a month (not the fake kind that most people complain about, vomiting and dizziness are part of these bad boys)
Cluster headaches twice (hope to God these never come back)

Left leg fracturing for no good reason other then walking. (19 years old when this happened and in the best shape of my life)

No matter what diets i follow, what medicine I take, what exercise regiment I do these things just keep happening.

With all of the medial tests I have had ran over the years the doctors say other then I need to lose 20 lbs, I am in great shape. My stress tests come back normal, my blood work is good for my age (37), one time my triglycerides where off the scale but I started to take garlic water and got it down to normal levels. My good and bad cholesterol are normal, I had an immunity test taken and it comes back normal so why do I keep getting sick. I would say I am a hypochondriac just looking for attention but it is really hard to fake abscess,shingles, pneumonia and all the other stuff. Since I do have a family history of lupus and hardening of the arteries they test me for these things on a regular basis but again everything is normal.

Sorry you are going through this..I would bet you have more than one thing going on..Form what you have said I would say you have autoimmue disease..Have you see a Good Rheumatologist that knows about autoimmune disease..I know some say they do and don't..Problem is unless you are in a good flare so to speak labs may come back normal..Keep a diary and health history..Be able to show and tell exactly how the pain feels-is it dull, sharp, burning etc..Loacation is necessary as well..Have you had an MRI? Ask for one if not..Don't give up -also-if your problem is autoimmune prepare to have a battle because it is so many things happeningit is ahrd to diagnosis..I am here if you need to talk..kd
