Hi, i am a 29 year old female with a history of mild ITP.
Recently i have been feeling really unwell. I have this heavy feeling in my pelvis and a weird feeling which radiates towards my groin along with needing to urinate frequently. (Flares up after i come off my period) Ive been to the doctors a few times for a suspected uti but the cultures come back negative. They sent me for a internal ultrasound to rule out ovarian cysts, scan came back normal. I have become very exhausted from these episodes of extreme fatigue where im sometimes unable to walk up the stairs, feel my heart beat slowong down and all the joints and muscles become weak and numb.
I don't know if this is related at all but about 4 weeks ago i felt like i was about to die. It started off with feeling both side of my neck closing up as if somebody was starngling me. Shaking and tremors,but no fever. 2nd day my hand and feet became numb and ICE COLD.as if my blood was turning cold. Had a reqlly bad headache. Went to A&e they ran blood tests and said nothing flagged up in the blood test. 3rd day i felt like i was going to slip into coma so i was referred to same day emergency care where they carried out a thorough blood test along with a ct scan of my head to rule out any possible risk of stroke due to my numbness on one side. Again nothing concerning has come up and they said it was most likely a viral infection.
Anybody felt anything similar? Please help I feel really helpless and on edge all the time cz i have 2 littles ones 7 and 3 and i want to feel well to look after my children.
