SOMEONE PLEASE READ I REALLY NEED FEEDBACK ANYTHING WILL HELP. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU ALL


OK.. Ill try to make this short.. but 9 months back me and my friend got extremly sick. Only my friend and I no one else we come in contact with which makes me think it had to be airborn or just by contact. That also makes me think mold maybe but how long should that last. What could last ( months on and off.

We had nausea, horrible stomach pains, side pains, swollen lymph nodes, feeling of a fever but one never showed, joint pain and cramps plus very dry mouth which was the oddest symptoms of them all. This lasted for about a month or 2 then would go away for a few weeks and come back as it is still doing.. I also had testicular pains for a good while

About 6 months ago my skin started to burn also. I tried everything and it wouldn't go away eitheR. I also got ringworm for the first time ever and eggsama. the ringworm just would go away either even with to medicen the doctor gave me.

I have had all the blood test my doctor could do including all the std tests and still no answer.. I just need to know if there is any direction for an answer to this someone can point me to.. Could it be fungl or a mold issue or bite by a bad bug.. All my blood tests said i was completly healthy not viral or bacterial so what could it even be close to being... This is getting to bad to take anymore im only 22 and this is running down my life.

The same questions
Hi, My name is Caitlin and this is the first time I have read someones story and it is identical to mine. I am still searching for answers. I have done so much research I am actually in school now to become a PA. It was the rash that got to me. I have been treated by a dermatologist for a fungal infection and treated by an osteopath for possible fungal infection (as I'm not sure that is what it is). I also have tried homeopathy, herbs, and other supplements. I have seen some things help and then one day it inexplicably gets worse. Were you tested for the Epstein Barr Virus? I have read about a syndrome that sounds just like what you have gone through that is a persistent viral infection in the same family as mono. May I ask where you live? I have made some improvements in my health and would like to hear what has helped you. Oh and I am currently doing a paper for school on MCS and it is quite possible that is what is causing my sickness and chemicals are not the only thing that can trigger MCS... dangerous mold can do it. I had an extreme exposure to mold right before my symptoms started. Ok, I'm done. Hope to hear from you.
