Short Bio

Im a 64 year old struggling with multiple symptoms that affect my activities of daily living. have been getting progressively sicker over the last 10 years or more, possibly longer.. as a 17 year old,had severe mononucleosis, in bed for a couple of weeks and unable to work for a month. Slowly recovered, but am wondering if over years with ongoing fatigue, depression/anxiety and panic attacks and other symptoms of migraines, and bladder issues (urge incontinence one day, slow bladder emptying the next, nocturia etc)as well as gut issues like an IBS, vertigo, labile blood pressure. Declining cogniton, balance, memory, muscle weakness, numb sensation of hands and feet, profound fatigue, involuntary muscle twitching, headaches every day, mostly sharp pain behind Left eye with flashing lights and blurred vision. Getting very clumsy and feel like Im losing fine motor skills, few other nebulous symptoms as well. Many thousands out of pocket medical bills seeing every specialist known to man, am still no closer to an answer.What I do know is that blood tests have shown Vitamin D deficiency very high ANA antibodies, and an abnormal brain MRI, that according to the physician I saw was showing I had a series of ministrokes.
