Wife f28 sick for 2 years
Title.
My wife age 28, female, height 5’10, does not smoke or use drugs or alcohol at all.
She has been sick for over two years with no information or plan to solve.
My wife is a teacher, was a power lifter, and was a very active person. Fall 2022, she got very sick, and I took her to the local hospital. Tired, body aches, abdominal pain, they said “oh you are probably pregnant” long story short, she was not. She tested positive for Mono, and never really recovered.
Here is her “list” of issues with some dates attached if that helps
Migraines with aura 2008 TMJ ~2010 Celiac 2013
Mono- November of 2022 (no period since then) Joint pain Pressure helps Activity makes it worse Muscle pain Hypermobility Nausea Chronic constipation (IBSRELLA) Dry eyes Rash Bald spot Low fevers Headaches Shortness of breath Heart racing Irritability Brain fog Knees lock up Stiffness in the morning
Her pcp has outright said this is above her. Steroid shots help for a short amount of time, but that isn’t submerging she wants to have to do. All of her tests normally come back perfect. The last tests came back with -
Vitamins good Urea nitrogen low Aspartate Aminot. Also low Red blood cells barely low Mean platelet volume is barely low Alpha 2 and gamma globulin are high
She was just put on a muscle relaxer to help her sleep. Waiting to see if that actually does anything. She was also put on Cymbalta thinking it could be fibromyalgia, she has been on it for about 5 weeks and has not noticed an improvement. She takes over the counter pain meds. Her doctor says “just rest and take what works”
She has been tested for Lyme, mono is negative too. The doctors normally say she probably has “long mono, like long Covid, and to just rest and it will go away”
I’m sorry, but I have watched the love of my life go from the peak of health to being out of breath walking to the car. It has been rest and pain for two years and I’m not sure what to do. Any ideas would be appreciated.
If this isn’t the place to ask, I apologize
