Just went to doctor today

[Guest guest]

I just went to the doctor today. I usually heal all of my aliments

using natural medicine. But my conditioned has worsened and I

finally went to the doctor he hasn't done any labs yet. But has

ordered some. He told me though he can almost guarantee I don't have

arthritis. I think I need a second opinion though because he told me

perhaps I'm sleeping wrong! I know that's not it. How do you explain

sometimes I'm fine and others I'm in excruciating pain. I'm going to

be 19 years old on the 17th and prior to this I was VERY strong and

active. I used to take care of exotic animals, and did everything

from breeding to wrestling alligators. My symptoms include joint

pain. On a daily basis not severe just moderate. But I have my days

when its severe. It hurts in my neck, lower back, fingers, wrist,

ankles, feet, and hips. I also am always so tired. Then again I do

take tyneol PM to lessen my pain and that may contribute to my

overall fatigue. Also my joints pop loudly and painfully ALOT. Which

this doctor says not to worry about. Also pain is usually much worse

on left side of my body. If anyone has any ideas I would really

appreciate it. Alot of people think this is in my head and I know

its not. Including my mother which as you can imagine makes me feel

this big. I went from having everything in the world in front of me

and now my future seems so bleak. My animals are the world to me,

and now I can't even care for them like I used to. On two occasions

this thing has had me in bed for a week. I do at times have a little

swelling but honestly not a whole lot. Also if anyone is in the Cape

Coral Florida area and knows of a good doctor that'd be great. I

just don't know what else to do. I feel like this is going to kill

me and no one knows what it is or how to help me. Probably should

have seen the doctor sooner. I want to find another one before I get

blood taken. Thanks so much for everyone's time.
