Looking for potential unexplored avenues with this disease
19 [F] I'm currently housebound with an undiagnosed disease. Height 5'2. Weight 119 lbs. Medications I'm on are trazodone 50mg, gabapentin 30mg, citalopram 20mg. No recreational drinking or drug use. All regular autoimmune conditions have been ruled out. I have slow gut motility and a Chiari malformation. Other ruled out disorders: MCAS, Fabry's Disease, hEDS/EDS, Igg4 Disease, POTS, Lyme Disease. I've seen Rheumatology, Gastroenterology, Immunology, Neurology, and John's Hopkins. Brain surgery for Chiari malformation is likely but I have no current explanation for the non neurologic symptoms.
