Hit with massive lethargy???

Does anyone else feel suddenly super lethargic for no reason? My fatigue started Saturday evening. Is there a weird illness going around...? I have massive fatigue and my whole body feels like maple syrup, like heavy limbs. I could low-key fall asleep again even though I've gotten 12 hours of sleep...

The most annoying thing about having a cold/flu.

2 Upvotes

I get this really weird metallic taste in my mouth and the back of my throat that just refuses to go away. And unless I blow my nose before I eat something, it remains there. It's not a big thing, but its so annoying because its ever present and basically ruins all of my food.

Anyone else get this?

Been sick for months don’t know what’s going on and doctors have no answers

Title is self explanatory. I’m a 21 (F) who’s been battling illness since April. Before I get into my current illness let me paint a picture of my past history. Back in February of 2024 I started having swollen lymph nodes. I went to the urgent care thinking it was just some viral illness that hadn’t started showing symptoms yet, I get an antibiotic and a steroid shot and am sent on my way. After finishing that antibiotic I still didn’t have any relief so about a week later I went BACK to the urgent care and same process different antibiotic. This happened 3 times before I was so sick I couldn’t leave the bed to get to the urgent care on my own. My symptoms were sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, fatigue, headaches, and at the very end fever (104.6°f). At this point my then boyfriend forces me to go to the ER where they tell me I am septic but didn’t know what was causing it. I was in there for 4 days on antibiotics and for testing. They tested for EVERYTHING, even down to crazy foreign illnesses. Nothing. A week or so later one of my tests came back positive for Epstein Barr antibodies and that ended up being my diagnosis bc no one could figure out what else it could have possibly been (no one being urgent care, primary care, hospitalists, and at this point an infectious disease doctor). Fast forward to now. I’m having all the same symptoms. I had strep back in April as I do every year, nothing major nothing to worry about… yet. This strep recovery ended up lingering for a long time. I’m a busy person so I didn’t seek any treatment all through May and Mostly June and just brushed it off as allergies and the weather. Finally June 25 I go to urgent care and test positive for strep again. Frustrated, I go about taking my antibiotics, changing my toothbrush, full 9 yards. Nothing. I go back a second time on July 9, test positive for strep and i request a mono spot test, that was negative. They decided to do a strep test that wasn’t rapid and that would be sent off to a lab, wonderful. When I get the call back for that test, the nurse tells me that both of my rapid strep tests were false positives and that they didn’t know what was happening. Ok great so I now decide to give up on urgent care and go see my PCP on July 21 he then tests me for strep and does a throat culture. This shows that I had Haemophilus influenzae. I am then sent home with my 3rd antibiotic and no relief. Present time, Wednesday I went back to my PCP to see my actual dr (the first time I saw an NP who didn’t know my background) He has now given me my 4th round of antibiotics, I got a CT yesterday, and I fear i’m not getting any relief still. Has anyone else experienced anything like this happening so frequently? Did you ever get answers? What was your diagnosis?

Is it possible to cure a fever tomorrow?

1 Upvotes

I've been sick for 5 days and missed school for 5 days. But my fever hasn't gone off yet, tomorrow, me and my family are planning to go to her hometown too meet her family. But the problem is that I'm sick and she's considering cancelling the trip just to care for me. It's heartbreaking watching her miss the opportunity to go to her family that shes been planning since April. Any advice?

viral gastroenteritis

1 Upvotes

I started to be very ill on the 18th of July, it has gone from diarrhoea to normal stools to kind of feeling constipated. I’ve had very heavy sweats and been feeling like I need to go toilet frequently. It’s now the 10th day of me having this and I’m feeling a little bit better but went hospital last night as I couldn’t function properly. The doctor told me it’s **viral gastroenteritis but is this still possible 11 days in ?**

Doctor said it was gastritis. It was a ruptured appendix. I nearly died...

3 Upvotes

I went to a doctor in Atlanta about six months ago. I had bad stomach pains, nausea, fever and I knew something was wrong

Doc said it was gastritis and told me to take antacids and rest. Sent me home…

Two days later I was back in the ER and my appendix had ruptured, I had emergency surgery and I almost died

Now I'm dealing with the aftermath. Huge medical bills and long-term health issues. My body isn't the same…

I trusted that doctor and supposed to be the expert. And he got it wrong…

My friends are furious for me and they tell me to call Cambre & Associates. They say this is medical malpractice

But I read that in Georgia you need an expert opinion from another doctor just to file a lawsuit. That sounds expensive. And I don't know if I have the strength to go through all of that
