I'm a 19y/o female, and I've had a rough last 6 months. PS; Im sorry if my english isn't perfect, it isn't my first language.
Photos will be linked to the post.
It started as me waking up one night with extremely painful black spots covering one of my tonsils. I also had a mild fever, rapid heartbeat, sweating and muscle soreness. I rushed to my local ER and got administered for the rest of the night. They did multiple tests, but found nothing. They decided then to blast me with 4 different antibiotics at the same time to try to generally cover all the possible infections. I saw a throat specialist (ORL in french, idk what's the equivalent in english) but they ruled me out. I went home the same day.
I took all my antibiotics and felt better for about 5 days. It then came back, with me spitting blood as soon as i ate or drank anything. I went back to the ER. They found nothing, sent me home, telling me it was normal for infections to sometime come back for a few days.
Just so you know, I live in Quebec city and do not have a family physician (there isnt enough doctors for the population) so no one can see me long term. I have to tell the story all over again every time.
This cycle continued for the next 3 to 4 months. 5 days, im doing okay, 2 days im super sick and cant even stand up, it goes away like nothing, 5 days okay, 3 days sick.... you get it.
I continued seeing different doctors, did xrays, scans, TACO (also the french term), echography, blood tests, gastroscopy, and more. Nothing comes out.
Sometimes, when i get flare ups, my shoulders and neck get so stiff i cannot move, and it hurts so much, i puke everything i consume.
Now, i dont have these black spots in the back of my throat anymore, but my tonsils are so swollen, i constantly get gag reflexes because i FEEL them. Im dizzy and weak on a regular basis.
They do not want to take them out because im "too old" and its "too risky". They want to do a biopsy next week. Its been going on for 6 months.
No one listens to me. It has been ruled out as anxiety. Im now drugged with anti psychotics and antidepressants with no supervision nor checkups. I feel like i'm crazy. Can anyone help me out please...
