I'll try to keep this short as possible.
I've been sick for the past 5 years and I've tried almost everything but I'm still not fine. I was told I had staphylococcus areus four years back, I took antibiotics and all kinds of herbal medicines. Antibiotics didn't work at all but herbal suppressed the symptoms. I went from one hospital to the other but no solution, some doctors even made me look stupid saying that staph is not an infection, that we have them in our nostrils, skin and all. I went from one spiritual house to another, did all sorts of things I never thought that would do in my life, still no solution. I've done all kinds of test and they all came negative, did blood culture and urine test again, few months ago, staph was no longer detected. I've also received two therapies for depression from two different hospitals but I still feel the same way. A doctor even called me a negative person. Some people no longer believe me, they say I don't look skinny and sick. I feel like I've exhausted all my options and nothing is working. I've spent all I have plus what my friends contributed for me, I don't even know what to say to them anymore

What I feel -
I feel very very tired and weak, I have joint pains all over my body, internal heat, chest congestion, I'm always dizzy and I've being experiencing catarrh for like 9 months straight now

Please is there anyone who might have any knowledge about what's wrong with me. I need your advice please or is it that I'm going crazy? Judge me all you want.

Do u have difficulty in concentrating?

Do u fart frequently?

Eastsea:
what his/her condition now? Do I need to tell them I'm suffering from social anxiety disorder or just explain to them the whole way I'm feeling. Thanks

Just explain the way you feel to them.

Trust me, you'll be fine insha Allah

To hasten ur recovery, I would advise u visit a general hospital where u will be referred to the appropriate unit where u'll properly be assessed n be given appropriate therapy

I know someone similar thing has happened to b4 n that's what he did

skin2care4:
There is this skin problem I have Been having on my body for quite a while now especially on my chest as you see in the pic below.

It doesn't seem to respond to all the treatments I have used on and it's not itchy, it doesn't hurt at all. and it seems it runs in the family including some of my cousins too. Please and please Doctors and skincare experts in the house can you help me with a solution to this problem? Am planning on getting married very soon. Thank you God bless.

Steatocystoma multiplex

Check it up on google

Also go to a dermatologist to confirm this

Lusard:
no Sir.

Pls go to the hospital, let them evaluate u thoroughly. If after evaluation, they r still not able to resolve it, most likely it will be what I'm actually thinking.

If u don't mind, I'll also like to go through ur tests results after u've done them, particularly FBC n differentials and stool analysis

Lusard:
hello sir good evening, please I have digestive issues recently and same time it seems my throat is dry and I find it a little difficult swallowing saliva and my intestines makes alot of sounds, I have dandruff, though I have been living with pain in my stomach like 7 years now ( probably ulcers),
I feel confused most times and restless, am always thinking of something all day long without rest, and my masturbate alot sir, sometimes 18 times a day, please I really need your advice sir, I feel depressed and thinking of suicide, please help me sir please.

Pls don't contemplate suicide, it is not n won't be a solution. There r pple out there suffering more than us, not that they r not tired of life themselves but they r just being optimistic. Pls endeavours to be optimistic about getting cured.


To start with, have u seen any doctor concerning it?

Bobbybob:
I have most of these issues. Pls help

Try n ans the questions I just asked him also

Ovokoo:
Yes, i would say so.

Can u remember prior to the onset of symptoms 7years ago if u had an illness that required the use of long term antibiotics?

Have u done HIV test?
When last did u check ur blood glucose?
Do u use steroids?

Ovokoo:
Yes, this happens but what also happens is the reverse. Sometimes, even after eating, i can feel hungry.

Pls ans the questions I asked one after the other so that I'll get u clearly

Did u also noticed that u've been having excessive dandruff?

Ovokoo:
I think so. But i'm not sure.

Like always feeling full even though u've not eaten for some hours?

Or having watery stools?

And also difficulty in gaining weight?

Ovokoo:
Hello Medical Practitioners,

I have this condition that has been bugging me for some years now. Probably close to 7 years.

It started mildly but got worse over time. It's a debilitating condition.

The symptoms are so many and i'm not sure if they're related or if it's a condition that gave birth to another and then another.

The most comonn symptoms are:

Body Weakness: I always feel like a walking corpse and my strength level is very low. I get weak for doing the minimalist of things like even talking. Even sleep does not help in refreshing my body.

Memory issues: My thoughts are very basic and this has meant that i've not been able to do anything intellectually demanding because my memory has become pathetic. I can hardly learn new things or even perform well at things that i used to be good at.

Other symptoms, some of which come and go or used to be there but no more there are:

Lack of muscle control : I don't know if i'm right in terming it "Lack of muscle control" but it just feels like i'm not physically fat and very clumsy.

Stress: This is similar to the body weakness. I have stress that doesn't ever get to go away. You can tell from my face that i'm always stressed even without doing anything.

Anxiety: I may also have anxiety because i tend to be panicky a lot at the slightest thing i hear. When i'm travelling by road, my eyes are always on the road to make sure the car does not get into an accident.

Slurry speech: I think there's a disconnect between my mouth and my brain. It's like i force speech out of my mouth especially when i want to pronounce certain words.

Sexual dysfunction: I don't even know if this is related to other symptoms. But i just thought i should leave it here.

I don't even think i have described this symptoms very well.

I have been to doctors and they almost always tell me it's depression and while i think some of these symptoms can be found in depressive people and while i also think depression was a symptom, i don't think it's the underlying problem. Some Nigerian doctors don't seem patient enough to rule out other conditions.

Moderators, pls I DON'T want this on the frontpage.

Do you have digestive issues?

IMASTEX:
Are you guys not the same Nigeria politicians again who always seek power by all means. Yet deceive the jobless ones that you want to serve them. Call yourself PDP or APC, how does that make you different?

Finally got it

sholatech:
Healthplus stores have probiotics capsules/supplments . Yoghurt are also excellent sources of probiotics.

Thanks alot

i just found out about health plus

Drayokunle:
You can get the best probiotics supplement online, @Amazon.com. However, there is healthy food in Nigeria that can also serve as probiotic. You need to include them in your healthy food to get the best-balanced diet.
