I've had health problems for the last 4 years affecting my whole body, physically and mentally.
Main symptoms include:
constant aching and cramping in my head, neck and back.
heaviness all over my head, especially at the back
abdominal aches and pains and discomfort
aching up back which feels like contractions
visible signs seemed to be linked to poor circulation eg blue toes, yellow fingers
Does anyone recognise these symptoms? My doctors don't know what the problem is. I've seen a neurologist and gynaecologist and they don't have a clue.
I think the problems may be linked to bad circulation. Which doctor deals with circulation affecting the whole body? My doctor said I should see a neurologist but that doesn't sound right.
Hello, Your GP Is sending you to a Neurologist as they will look at things such as the nerves and conditions that are not easily spotted without blood tests etc. You say you have already seen a Neuroligist so what did they say? Anxiety can also cause a lot of symptoms you describe.
Hi, the neurologist diagnosed chronic tension headache due to anxiety. But the problems with my head are not headaches, it's more of a constant heavy feeling all over which often becomes worse and I get a cramping feeling in my head and neck. The doctor was quite dismissive, not a good listener and did no tests.
Most of my anxiety is caused by my health problems, since they are ongoing and affect most of my body. I think it's a physical problem but I'm not sure what the source of the problem is and which doctor to go to since most doctors only focus on one area of the body, not the whole body. I'm hoping someone might recognise the symptoms and have some suggestions. The doctors don't know and I'm stumped.
Hello Miss Muffit,
Have you tried Lyme disease?
