I am a 29-year-old male who has recently
experienced several annoying but seemingly
unrelated/fairly minor health problems.
But I just realized this might be part of
the same pattern, and now I'm kind of
freaking out about it.
About four weeks ago, I started having
breathing trouble, which I've had before,
at this time of year, so I thought it
might be allergies. (My doctor said the
first time that it was anxiety--she didn't
test anything; just diagnosed it as
anxiety in the office--and put me on
Zoloft, which I've been off for about
three years.)
About two weeks ago, the breathing trouble
went away--I could breathe fine--and then
suddenly I got a bad cold. I woke up with
a terrible sore throat that lasted about a
day and a half. Afterward, I had what
seemed to be a bad sinus infection, which
lasted for several days, and then I had a
102-degree fever, and within two days I
slowly got over it and feel almost well
now.
About three days ago, my back started
killing me--but that was two days after I
did these crunches that sometimes make my
back hurt. My lower back still hurts
terribly when I move around.
Yesterday I woke up with a dark red blush
in the lower half of my left eye. It hurt
more and more all day and now it just
looks generally pink and it's not blurry
anymore and doesn't hurt or itch.
I now have two little red bumps--one at
the base of a finger, one on my neck, and
I suspect one inside of my left outer ear
because it's itching and hurting.
