Okay....I don't know which symptoms that I have that are related to each other. There are others that have started up to 2 yrs ago, but starting 6 mos ago, I started experiencing new symptoms, one after the other, that are getting worse. Here is a general overview:

FIRST ~ I'M A 27 YEAR OLD FEMALE

**joint pain in fingers, wrists, elbows- then shoulders- then hips- now knees(also have started experiencing what feels like an electric shock or
pulse/wave of electricity that goes up my arm and down my thumb when I accidentally turn my wrist a certain way)

**toe joints started to hurt at the same time feet started turning purple and would sporadically get these itchy bumps on my toes, that go as suddenly as they come

**red blood vessel or pin head sized/shaped dots under surface of skin of legs & feet - these are dark red, and do not go away when I rub my leg or press on the area

**Muscles ache

**Almost daily headaches(feel like they're possibly derivative of neck pain)

**Feel fevered/hot to touch on torso & thighs many evenings

**Disgusting, drenching night sweats

**Loss of sensation in toes, feet & sometimes complete loss of feeling of both legs when sitting

**Large knots filled w/ sebum(sometimes larger than a marble)- very painful- that eventually open & get infected and SCAR my face Sad

**In January- White Blood Cell Count was 3.2

**Blood Pressure stays around 90/55

Every few days, I wake up & feel like I've drunk a gallon of vodka, and then attempted to run a marathon, before stepping out in front of a speeding Mack truck. Every joint hurts. Every muscle aches. My head feels like it will literally crack open. I'm EXTREMELY nauseus, and sore everywhere.

**Also, I've become extremely sensative to light & sound

I WAS DIAGNOSED W/ NARCOLEPSY, AFTER FINALLY GETTING A REFERRAL TO A SLEEP SPECIALIST 2 YEARS AGO, FOLLOWING 7 YEARS OF ASKING WHAT THE HECK WAS WRONG W/ ME

Any Ideas???? I could really use some help

Hi, I won't serve any purpose to answering your question, but I also have all of the same symptoms as you. I am 18 years old, I have low white blood count, and pretty much the majority of the same things going on with me as you. My biggest concern is how my legs get purple, and have spots all over them. I think it might have something to do with our immune systems being low. I would like to know more as well. Please email me if anyone has any questions or answers.

I am an Rn..... please check into borreliosis burgdoferi the spirochete that causes lyme disease...Sounds like you have the symptoms. You need to get to a specialist and waste no time as regular docs haven't the time to check you out right. Seek a lyme specialist go down no more rat holes...good luck

I would have your thyroid gland checked out. My brother had the same symptoms. It usually attacks young males or menopausal females
