lots of problems no insurance

ok this is a bit long but maybe someone in the world can help me.I've asked the man up stairs a few times and he doesn't seem to respond. it all started about 3 years ago, I woke up with a overly large gland protruding out of my neck.about 19 hours later it burst and released fluid.Naturally for the next 4 months i felt sick.Extreme stomach pain, constipation, much vomating,head aches this went on for a while as i proceeded with new types of antibiotics and medicines the doctors gave me.But the symptoms seemed to worsen.After taking cipro for 1 week i began to feel a burning feeling in my throat i alerted the doctor to this burning and he said continue with the dosage.Another month went by and i began to develope new and ackward symtons,Lower back pain some kind of build up of soft tissue in my leg that the doctors say isn't there but i can feel it and a rather large bump on the upper femar between my pelvis and thigh which the doctors also claimed was not there. Soon after my throat healed but i was left with a grindin feeling everytime i swallowed and my adnoids seemed to be blocking my breathing.My tounge and throat began to swell until it was time for surgey.Removal of adnoids and toncilectomy?? was preformed(not a very good speller)No cancer good sign.My throat stop swelling and my tongue went back to normal size and i actually felt good for the first time in a long time.But again six month later the same problems arised fullness underneathe my tongue is becoming an issue again large swelling on the right side and blood in my nosetrils continued on for another year.Now i felt dizzyness and sick as well as constant popping in my groin when i walked This is when evrything becomes pretty bad pain in groin pain in lower back,lower stomach, dizzyness,blood in stool massive chest pain,trouble taking full breathes,Overly gassy unusual stools(Ribbon like)Never constant.This was about the time my premiums on my insurance were too high, i seeked different providers but it was all much to high for my price range due to my past history.I continued to see doctors paying cash but was never givin a diagnosis (I beleave because i didn't have insurance they didn't want to treat me)By now most of the doctors thought i was the guy who made stuff up to get pain pills or medicines like i was an addict or something.I didn't even want the medicine i wanted to be fixed. Well about 6 more months of the worse time in my life went by as i ranked up the medical bills to well over 9000 for the E.R visits.I'm only 19 and i'd like to figure out what the heck is wrong with me.lately i've been off and on these syptoms pop out of nowhere and have no consistincy.Some days i feel extremely tired other days i have scary dizzyness,Tonight i have pretty bad pain in my lower stomach and what i beleave to be blood in my stool. I don't know what to do.I have no insurance and little money but i feel as if i'm dieing slowly and if i don't figure out what this is it will be too late.It's 1:43 am here and this is my reach out to the world for help.I'm tired of doctors thinking i'm full of crap and tired of spending thousands of dollars on endless tests that reveal nothing.

Re: lots of problems no insurance

Try eating a "healthy diet", exercise, lose weight if overweight and see if you start feeling better. If you are still in school, concentrate on making the best grades possible and/or if you are working concentrate on being the best employee possible. Find a hobby you enjoy that is not too expensive and find a place to volunteer helping others.

At first this will not be easy, but in time you will accomplish all of the above and feel so much better physically and mentally. It is amazing what the above can do for a person.

Do not spend time on the computer looking up various diseases, it poisons the mind and makes you think you have all of them over time. You need positive influence, not negative.

Let us know how the above works for you. Many of us have been there, done that and are blessed for giving it a try.
