Oh gods, that sounds awful! I hope you're feeling better as the day wears on.
Y'know, I'm going to post about it soon, but I've been spending a lot of time thinking about how complex my condition is. I have fibro, celiac and NMH/blood pressure dysregulation, they're all invisible, they're all incurable, and they interact in ugly ways. It's tough sorting out the symptoms.
I'm willing to bet you've got a similar complex situation, your own special version, of course. Now that I've started thinking in this "complex" way, it's easier to sort my symptoms. Hasn't helped too damned much, but at least I'm feeling less out of control and in the spin cycle.
It's the getting diagnosed that's the real PITA. I feel so much for you, for the slog to the docs and the tests and the general bullcrap that is trying to get diagnosed for us with the weird problems.
