Hi guys
I need some advice of a way forward as this is driving me nuts. I have been ill on and off over the last 18mths plus. Let me clarify ill :
Constant bouts of chest infections, repeat episodes of bad stomachs / diarrhoea. Eyes watering and nausia and feelings of exhaustion. Temperatures dropping and rising from 35 to 39 every time I'm ill. Weight lose due to the above bouts of gastric problems.
I am a physical person my job entails training physically with and alongside students three times a week, however I have not been able to train very hard for over the past year and my muscles feel tired even before training.
I have been wishing to start back running for the past year, but have said to my self "wait till you feel a bit better first but" that day has not come yet.
I work in the day and teach and train in the evening and have late nights, fortunately business is busy.
I have spoken to my doctors who have drawn a blank, although I had not had any tests as yet. They say you are bound to be ill at least 7 times a year anyway !!!
Medical Hist.
When I was a baby I drank mercury and was poisoned by it although I received no medical attention after drinking it I came out in a sever rash for several weeks. Doctors said if i'm not dead I would get over it ! Had Diabeties 27 years type 1, basal bolus system, in short stints between illness sugar levels are ok, but when ill they swing from 1.8 to 20's. Im over 40 but a young 40 LOL
No real allergies.
Been taking vits and omega 3 and auto immune boosting vits, but they don't seem to help much ??
I just feel I role from one thing to another, but the illnesses are driving me nuts, my personal feeling is my auto immune system is to weak to fight the infections to start with, whether the mercury poisoning is having some kind of effect on my resistance or its just an effect on long term diabeties.
None of the doctors can suggest a auto immune specialist that deals with type of thing. My doctors to be honest either are disinterested or may be think I just moaning for the sake of it.
I'm not - I love life and would like to start training hard again, but i literally feel to ill and weak to do anything, and going from bad stomachs to chest infections just seems to be like chinese water torture.
Any help, thoughts or recommendations I would be grateful, if further info might help either post here or pm.
Many thanks
