I feel like I am sick all the time....and it is always something new! I often have many symptoms of different infections/diseases at the same time -- making it difficult to identify the problem. Is an Immune Disorder to blame for what I have been struggling with for 21 years?
I was a healthy child (almost never sick) until I turned 8
When I was 8 I had many re-occurring UTIs and other forms of Bladder infections
When I was 13 I was diagnosed with chronic sinusitis -- Doctor did not know why my sinuses wouldn't drain (do not have deviated septum) nor did he understand why I got them so frequently (at least 1 infection every 1 to 2 months)
Had surgery on my sinuses -- brought the infections down to about 4 or 5 a year
I did have an allergy test -- showed that I was allergic to "the world" (as the nurse put it) nearly everything they tested for (grasses, plants, animals, ect)
Going along the same lines ---I have asthma
It would seem that, minus the UTI's, everything was allergy related
HOWEVER
the UTI's have been consistent all my life
-more recently a doctor treated me for Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
I am hypoglycemic
I "catch" a virus nearly every other month (if not constantly for months on end..)...viruses that cause many upper respiratory infections
-Mono put me in the hospital last year and "walking pneumonia" or severe bronchitis is a new theme of the viruses/infections I attract
*?* I have also experienced SEVRE abdominal that has put me in the hospital more than once and that no doctor has been able to diagnose*?*

I am SICK AND TIRED of being SICK. Especially these past few years I feel that I have spent more time being sick than healthy. Am I just an unhealthy girl or is this all related to something bigger?

---I do take allergy meds daily, as well as a decongestant, I have gone through endless steroid packs, and I have taken many antibiotics that help fight- but never keep the viruses/infections away
