My symptoms worry me Hello. I am a 21 year old male with a whole bunch of symptoms that have started up in the past couple months. I want to start off saying that I quit smoking a little over a month ago in hopes to obviously improve my health. Its been the opposite so far. I couple months ago i went to the doctor cause i was having trouble breathing and chest pain with hand tingling, and feeling like passing out. They told me I was having panic attacks. This could have been true because i had been unemployed with bills racking up. the past month however, i have had a craving for sugar....food with sugar, drinks with sugar....koolaid, soda, etc. I have recently cut those out of my diet because when i drank them my body felt out of control and felt like i was going to pass out. I drink a lot of fluids....I always need to have something to drink...and i have been like that since i was a kid. my chest pains have come back and i have spells of the chills, cold sweaty hands and feeling like i'm going to pass out. I also always have lathargy lately and my jaw has ached. Iin the past couple day I have had black dots(floaters) once in a while in my vision. I have always been skinny and can never seem to gain weight. Once in awhile i'll be able to eat a decent size meal but a lot of the time i'll get full fast and sometimes feel nauseous. I am tired lately and could always sleep it seems like. sometimes i will sleep 16 hours. I'll also have restless leg syndrome(rls) once in awhile which will prevent me to sleep. my relatives and friends have told me to get tested for diabetes. I have never had a problem feeling unhealthy my whole life and the past couple months have been worrysome for me. I would go see a doctor again but I havn't had health insurance for awhile and can't afford to. I just worry they will tell me nothing is wrong or that it's anxiety when in fact I know my body and I know something isn't right. I would love your opinions or want to know if anyone has similar problems. Any doctors out there? |
