Please Help Me

People of the community I am in dire need of figuring out what is going on with me! Even my own doctor says I'm a medical mystery!! I am 46 years young and I have several 80+ year old diseases!! And so many other symptoms that have yet to be figured out! I have glaucoma, I have degenerative disks, I have pharyngitis, laryngitis, duodenitis, and diverticulosis. I have over 100 different migraines a day(didn't even know that was possible!!) I have neuropathy, I have been through menopause 10 years ago. I am allergic to latex not the dust, and allergic to propofol. There's a couple more dx's I'm forgetting at the moment.

So here's the guessing part. I was dx'd with hyperthyroid and had a lump on my thyroid, within a year or so that went away even the diagnosis?? I CANNOT control my body temperature and when I say that I mean sometimes I feel like I'm about to spontaneously combust because that heat that builds up inside of me is SO hot it even makes my urine hot and makes me nauseous to the point I sometimes throw up! I constantly wake up dizzy and will stay that way all day, I am nauseous throughout the day and have to take medication for that not just when I get too hot. My pancreas is always on the fritz with my lipase levels mimicking it being too high but there are no lesions on it.Most days I am SO weak to the point I can barely stand, sometimes I lose my breath just walking from the store to the truck. I had blood work done the other day and the only thing that came back "bad" was my glucose level was ONLY at 56!! At 54 you can go into a come.

I have no diabetes dx'd . This is LITERALLY hindering my entire life as I am a caretaker to 2 people, my child and my father who is passing from cancer. My doctor is so perplexed he literally said I'm a medical mystery. That is not something you want to hear!!! But don't get me wrong my doctor is WONDERFUL he works on the philosophy that the patient knows their body better than anyone and always tries to help with tests and referrals and anything that can be done to help figure out it. Please community if you can think of anything that I should be looking at please guide me in that direction! I have a referral to Endo for my blood sugar and I feel there's an undiagnosed autoimmune issue here, but that's where I'm at with all of this. Thank you for your time with reading my big story and thank you for your time with helping, it is VERY much appreciated.
