Hello, iam a 14yr old female who has not been well for over three months..
It all started when i was ill on the 30th of dec, i was violently throwing up, i was so weak i could barely walk and i wasent eating. After two weeks and a bit i was fine, two days later my eyes swelled up and watered - a eye infection!, one and a bit weeks later.. I woke up coughing and wheezing.. A chest infection!.. Three days feeling fine but tired the guess what..Another eye infection.. Two days at school feeling ok but a bit nauseous.. Another chest infection!.. Then it carried on like that but with a throat infection then tonsillitus, chest infection, urin infection then a bladder infection.. Ever since october i have had the same underlying symptoms.. Dizzyness, feeling warmor cold, wobbling and stumbling, feeling faint, terrible migranes, drinking excessively and eating lots but not gainig weight, feeling nauseous and sensitive to touch, a pat on the back left me in tears, and the feeling of complete fatigue and weakness.. Like all my joints were unhinged:c Don't wory its not diabetes she nastily pricked me today and it was normal6 5 x she says if by next wed there's no improvement i will need blood tests, but its my bday on Saturday?? What's wro g with me someone help!!!
Hello Rea,
you will need some more tests done - it's obvious that your immune system is weak since you keep getting these infections. You also might have iron deficiency caused anemia which could only make things worse, since it makes you constantly tired, dizzy, you lose your appetite... And this is somethng that is very easily treated with iron supplement. The other thing is, if you're constantly nauseus, no matter what you eat, you will need to se a GI specialist to check if you have stomach infection with H.pylori or maybe you're secreting too much stomach acid.
Wish you all the best,
Nicole
