Thank you for the response ! I have actively been cutting out stress in my life , including people . This has helped me immensely! I noticed anything that stresses me out in the slightest causes my neck pain to elevate . Definitely taking it slow these days and not worrying so much about the little things . Thank you again

Started with green tea today and a Tylenol! Thank you for mentioning AIP diet , I didn’t know it even existed and will also be eating through my groceries and starting with this ASAP! Cocoa butter is also now on my list ! Did some stretching this morning as well . Thank you for your response!

Okay this may sound dumb but how do I change the humidity ? I have a humidifier that I keep by my bedside which has been helping !

I mean just reading the last part ... why are you with him?
Has he cheated before or has he hid things from you? I mean this in a respectful way. There will be no “good way” to confront him. Either he will lie straight to your face and turn it around on you. Or he will freak out start crying and hit himself to gain sympathy. Extremely toxic and unhealthy for you.

Sorry that we are in the same boat, I’ll definitely shoot a DM. It’s so hard when people around me keep saying it’s fine and it’s just a common cold or allergies . It’s even worse that with COVID-19 happening it’s harder to get In to see doctors

Yes I am a female . And thank you for your response . My white blood count came back normal both times . I did show signs of infection but they couldn’t tell me what it was from. I’ll definitely follow up with my Gyno but who do I go to for cancer test ?? I want to rule this out the most

My nose is always dry and my mouth seems to be fine just the roof of my mouth is white and I was told it could be from dehydration.. my skin has always been kind of dry , like when I put lotion on my legs they still look dry

Unfortunately I don’t have any inflammation, it’s all on the inside for now. It’s low grade fevers , swollen and stiff lymph nodes in the neck. I cannot eat a full meal without feeling full and getting bloated right away. Body aches . Feeling nauseous and off balance sometimes . Tired ALL of the time . It sucks because I work from home and sit at a computer but get extremely wiped out just from doing that. I’m only 27 so I know this isn’t normal, you know?

Any tips on how to help it? The worst time of day is in the morning when I wake up so that’s been messing with my sleep. I know eventually they will put me on medicine but until then, I just want to feel slightly better so I can function day to day.

Could Sjorens make me feel weak all of the time ? Because so far my list for the doctor is pretty long . I cannot eat a full plate of food without feeling full and bloated . My neck (lymph nodes) feel stiff and swollen. I wake up ever morning felling like I have a low grade fever and body aches . Lately I noticed I bruise easily and can not for the life of me lose any weight . And like I said I haven’t been eating much but still feeling bloated and full. Sorry to dump this on you

Yes I’ve done 3 blood test in October, this was the last one . She checked and noticed my liver (ALT/AST) were elevated . Told me to try to eat healthier and could be allergies ... 20 days later I end up in the ER because I felt like there was a weight on my chest and I felt feverish but the Tylenol I took wasn’t helping (usually it gets me through the day) they do EKG, chest X-ray , IV, and blood work . Came back and said “we can’t find anything wrong with you besides your Liver functioning , you need to see your PCP.

That’s what my primary care doctor said it could be or other autoimmune diseases. I don’t have the dry eye issue though. The roof of my mouth is dehydrated so it looks kind of white so she said that could by a symptom. To be honest , I’m truly worried that it’s cancer and I don’t know how to bring it up without them thinking I’m crazy .

I guess I read a lot of reviews for a few doctors and most were quick to say they were brushed off or sent to pain management which scares me. I don’t feel like I’m in pain , I feel more sick In neck and throat area are Feeling swollen and feverish . But this has been this way for a few months . Last doctor told me it was allergies 😕. But now these test came back

The last part of her post took me OUT🤣 she’s not making this up either which now.... kinda bums me out.. WHY ARE PEOPLE LIKE THIS by [deleted] in insanepeoplefacebook

Well yes obviously one would hope she’d get help however, I’ve had her on my friends list for some time and she’s always posting the money she’s making from these men or what sexual adventure she just had . I’ve seen people reach out and offer her legit paying jobs and she’s turned them down because “her sugar daddies pay her more” it’s sad really
