Why cant the doctors give me answers?

Hi. For over 3 months, I have had a very rough time,I have been experiencing lightheadedness, nausea,extreme fatigue, weakness, headaches loss of appetite, and loss of balance. I have anemia, and I have been to the doctor several times, and he has told me that this is not my anemia. I have been on iron pills for a month and it should have gotten better. I feel terrible! It’s so hard to describe what I feel, but I just can’t take this anymore. I don’t have the strength to go anywhere, and I haven’t;t been at school for the past 2 weeks. The doctor thinks it has to do with my ear, so he is referring me to an ENT, but both my mom and I disagree. She thinks that this is my hormones, and they aren’t producing enough, or too much. I have been researching the internet, just looking for some lead or any answers. I found something that describes most of my symptoms, called Acute Adrenal Crisis. It has to do with hormones I believe, and it sounds like what I have. If you have any ideas, any answers you could give me, I would appreciate any help you could give me. This is so much for a 13 year old and I can’t take this anymore. Please help me!

Answer #1

I suggest seeking out another doctor.

Answer #2

I had the same problem, exact same symptoms, back in november, I missed like a month of school because of it. My doctor thought it had to do with my ear to, and it turned out it was, I had water bulid of behind me ear that wouldnt drain throughing off my balance causeing me to be light headed/dizzy, ect ect all you symptoms, but I also had server sinusistus, (a reallyyy bad sinus infection) which made the symptoms that more powerfull. Also my brain was apperantlly sending out a lot of different things (I don’t know im not a doctor hard to explain) to try and fix this problem on its own, which through off my hormone levels. It was basically a lot of head stuff, all at once. treatment they put me on anit-nasuia medicine, decongestionted, ect. I was on a lot of pills for a long time.. And though my symptoms are better, they are still there slightly, just like an annpyng buzz not unbearable.

Keep going to the doctor, best of luck, and if you wanna talk any more about this fun mail me, since I had the sameee symptoms.

Best wishes, Daydream Believer

Answer #3

My mom wants to take me to urgent care…so I can get tests, what are your opinions on that? this has been going on for 3 months, I need answers, now.

Answer #4

I suggest you keep going back to the doctor.

He is going to check you for several things before pinpointing the real problem - don’t shrug off his opinion just because you don’t think it’s right…you’re not the doctor, your mother is not the doctor, and we are not doctors…the only one who can help you is…gasp…the doctor.

Answer #5

It could be multiple things. Tell your doctor all the things you think it could be and have them do tests to rule those out. Or go to another doctor for a second opinion. Also it could be pregnancy if you are sexually active.

Answer #6

Try and go to a different doctor!.
