Do I have an autoimmune disease?
I am 25 years old. I have had several health problems over the years. When I was 18 I was diagnosed with PCOS. At 19 I got pregnant with twins. I had a very bad pregnancy, with high blood pressure and anemia. The twins were born by emergancy c-section at 28 weeks. After that I have never completely recovered. I continued to have high blood pressure and slight anemia after having the kids. I constantly felt sick and nobody could figure out what was wrong with me. Then almost 2 years later I found out I had an infection from my c-section, I had surgery and the dr. said it was bad but he had gotten it all out. He also diagnosed me with endometriosis. I felt like maybe I was going to start to feel better, and it seemed like I did for a while. Now almost 3 years later from that surgery I am still not feeling well. Every time I get bloodwork my white blood count comes back high even when I wasn't going because I was sick. I always asked if my infection from my c-section was still there, he always assures me that it is all gone. I know have swollen lymph nodes in my neck and my ears and throat have been hurting for about a month now. He put me on anitbiotics like he does all the time and it didn't go away. He wanted to put me on more anitbiotics, and I asked him what do I have an infection from he wouldn't say. I told him I didn't want to take anymore antibiotics. I am still feeling really bad. Here are all my symptoms fatigue, sensetivty to light, night sweats, insomnia, pain in my bones & muscles, headaches, migraines( I have had them since I child but they started showing up again), stomach problems. I don't know if I might have an autoimmune disease. I think I am going to try a new doctor, but until then I really would like to know what is going on with me. I just want to feel better again?
