Did you ever find out what caused it? I don’t know how much longer I can take this. It’s been almost a year and a half. In the last year, I have lost a lot of weight. I have not been trying to. I don’t watch what I eat and have no energy, time or desire to exercise. I don’t know what the illness is. I just know that it is wearing on me physically as well as mentally.

I have such a strane range of symptoms. My doc has offered many possibilities as being the cause, celiac disease being one of them. Everything comes back negative. He is ordering more tests. I am a mother too. I try to hide much of my concern and pain from my family. I don’t want the kids to be affected. I’m sure that they are affected anyway, bc I feel pretty stressed.
Thanks for the replies. Please invite people to read this if you think that they might be able to offer advice, suggestions or ideas on what could be causing this.
Thank you all. I certainly do appreciate your help.
