No diagnosis?

A year ago I was hospitalised with a severe headache, vision blacked out, suspected I had a rash, vomiting. They suspected meningitis. I had low folic acids, low red blood count, low blood sugars, low potassium fosfate and low magnesium. They sent me on my way with beta blockers for migraines after 4 days in hospital. I haven't felt right since, falling asleep at work, night sweats, neck pain, back pain, fluctuations in my body temperature, no energy. I've repeatedly gone to the gp and they say try more sleep, try time off work, try eating healthy. Now I don't drink I don't smoke I eat alot of fruit and veg and a mixed diet. I have a ginger and turmeric shot daily to try and boost myself. My fear is it maybe NHL but I don't want to keep returning to the gp. Has anyone on here experienced anything like this? I'm worried and noone seems bothered but my life is genuinely and significantly changed. I used to do all the housework, work 7-4 everyday look after my kids and husband and now I struggle to work and then crash. I'm not here to offend or get attention just to know if my symptoms are relevant thankyou

  • Hello and thanks for your post,

    I am sorry to hear about the different symptoms you are experiencing and I can understand how frustrating it must be that they can't find the cause.

    We can't diagnose anyone and if your symptoms are persisting then do go back to your GP and let them know.

    The NHS have written some helpful tips about what to ask your GP which you can see here

    There are other conditions other then cancer that can cause symptoms so try not to think the worst if you possibly can.

    GP's do have guidelines when patients present with symptoms so do let them know what is concerning you and how your symptoms are affecting your day to day life.

    Even though it is reassuring hearing other members of the forum do remember that it is difficult to compare one person's symptoms with another as everyone is so different.

    I do hope you feel better soon.

    All the Best,

    Catherine
