In either case it is a autoimmune disease and there are certain things that can be done to stop its progress and make life easier.

Irritable Bowel, psychiatric causes, food and or drug allergies are other potential causes.  Any new stresses in the last six months?  Dietary or lifestyle changes?  \n\nTry to think of anything that may have coincided with or be related to the onset of your symptoms.  Think of what brings on the symptoms, prolongs them or shortens them, makes them more or less intense, affects them in any way.\n\nOften, it is hard to think of anything that is related, especialy after so many tests, but it is a way to find answers.  Consider keeping a diary of your symptoms and observations to help find associations with diet, activity, daily stressors, etc.\n\nShare your fidnings with your doctor(s) see if they spark any thoughts about possible causes.  Best wishes - I hope your symptoms resolve soon.  Take some solace in the fact that alot of really bad things have been eliminated as possible causes.

Demand a second opinion. Positive note I had similar symptoms for years rarely a day off. I had a brain scan, a EEG and other tests turns out I have hemiplegic migraines - very scary. I have an aura with mine - a bad taste often triggered by what I eat or smell. Gloss paint sends me off my legs for up to 2 weeks. I was investigated for having a stroke! Go back an see your Dr if symptoms don't improve and demand further tests! Have allergy/ sensitivity tests done, mine showed my triggers as being corn, melon, larger etc. I changed my diet and took FEVER FEW natural health supps and have made a fantastic recovery, with the occasional relapse. I f your symptoms are new to you and you have had no further investigations than a DR appointment, go back and demand more. Take a friend or relative with you if your reluctant to push the issue. You only have one life - enjoy it. Luv J xx

I know what you are going through....I am 51 and was diagnosed with PD two years ago.  The doctors (I've seen 3) don't tell you much (at least what to expect).  I believe that is because everyone has different symtoms and different degrees of systoms.  What I did was to go to the book store and get a book about Parkinson's Disease.  It was very informative.  Told me what I might be looking at "down the road".  Medication can help, although it takes some work to find what will work for you.  (I am in that process right now). It is a guessing game for you and the doctors....try until you find something that works for you.  Mine is getting progressively worse.  Started with my right hand shaking, then it progressed to the entire arm and now my right leg also shakes.  Stress makes it worse.  I have been in retail for the last 28 years and it is looking like I will probably have to stop working in the not too distant future.....can't keep up the pace.  Good luck to you and get as informed as you can.  There is an on line group that you can go to that will answer any questions that you may have now or in the future......check on line......

My mom has this too....it is called Fibromyalgia, though I am not sure on the spelling.....the pain is like a knife and it is very debilitating, so I am told!

Since you are concerned about her behavior I am led to believe that this is a drastic change. So, yes, you should be concerned. She needs to see a doctor as soon as possible for a complete physical. Be sure to document the changes you have witnessed. Write down everything you can think of before her appt. to make the most of your time with the doctor. Your mom is a lucky lady to have you.

Calm down, sweetie.  Your mom is probably concerned b/c of your irregular periods and abdominal pain.  This could mean cysts or endometriosis. Which is treatable.  It is good to go to the gyno b/c they can answer questions and help you with your problem.  A gynocologist is a professional-that person is not there to hurt you!!  She is there to help you and answer ques.  She will talk to you, give you a breast exam (and show you how to give y/self a breast exam), she will lubricate her fingers and feel of your ovaries to make sure there are no cysts.  She will put a speculum into your vagina( it is metal and sorta cold).  This will take samples of your bacteria to make sure that there is nothing to worry about.  Your mother does not have to be in there and the gyno will be the only that can view your genitals.  Which they see everyday.  This will allow you to overcome some of your anxiety so that when you get older you will not be so overwhelmed.  Your mother may want to know if you are sexually active and the doc cannot say anything to your mother.  Talk with your mother and ask her the reason why she wants you to go.  And tell her that you will go only if she is not in the room (or whatever you prefer).  Try to ease her worries by telling her that you are not being sexually active.  good luck.

My 11 year old was like this earlier this year. We couldn't figure out what was wrong with her...It got really bad and she wouldn't eat for days because of the pain. The doctor put her on medicine but that made it worse... so this is what we did... We changed her diet, reduced her stress, had her talk to a counselor, and then went back for another thorough exam. For children there could be many things wrong... from cysts, infection, blockages, even allergies. I hope they find something to help your daughter! for our daughter we cut back on milk (she only gets a small amount now and we suplement her calcium), reduced sugar, went whole wheat, more vegies, and juice, and no soda pop, reduced junk food, and easy to cook meals (yes more work for mom and dad but worth it!) and also sent lunches with her to school to have more control over what she ate there too. Then I give her back massages, which seem to help relax her stomach muscles and then she drinks green tea with mom ( we made a ritual of herbal and tea time with her and I)... again.. hope your daughter feels better!

No ,it's not normal. I also had this many years as a teen and up to my 40s. Dr. said you must have had mono back then, so you're immune system is impared. Also took many supplements and extra vitamins. Helped some.Then after nursing my dying mother,moving ,going through lots of emotional,stuff.Found that stress and procastion, seemed to add to my tiredness. New life ,excersise ,be happy, let go of some of,[I've got to].tackle chores you don't like first.Also new Doctor said I have chronic fatique, put me on anti-depression meds,and something pepole with narcolseply take. Feel much better,and I'm a senior. Go to Dr.until they listen to you. ALSO BE LIVING LIFE DOING THINGS YOU WANT TO.Excersize is not an option .Walking is great. It starts with the first step .Fake it till you make it.It's your life ,laugh ,be interested in things you see on walks,and soon you won't have to fake it. Please let me hear from you later on,so I'll know how you're doing.LOVE YOURSELF!!!!

If she is feeling that sick hun, she'll have to go no matter what.  I would check the internet real fast and see if there are 'low income' places she could go that wouldn't charge her too much.  If all else fails, and she's really sick, take her to the Emergency Room and they HAVE to treat her until she's stable, and that's a law, so - they'll just have to bill her for it.  It will cost over 400 bucks just to walk in the door and ask for treatment.  :(  I hope it gets better for you and I am praying for your Mom hun.
