Re: multple undiagnosed conditions

Hi! I am very disturbed by your post. I don’t know if I want to scream or cry. I was stationed at Tallil AB at the beginning of OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM in 2003. I got sick while deployed, but not sick like I am now. I have been to so many doctors especially over the last 6 months. I am very ill now and feel like my life will never be the same. I experience pretty much all the same symptoms you describe. I really thought I was going crazy. I am only 27 years old and some days I feel like I’m going on 90. I have days where I can barely lift my 8 month old 17 lb daughter. Those days are especially emotional, because I don’t feel like I can be the mother or wife I use to be. None of the doctors can figure out what is wrong with me. I am seeing a doctor now who seems determined to figure out what is wrong. My platelet, white blood, and red blood counts have been all over the place since I have been back. I am suppose to have a biopsy done of my intestine at my next appointment. I change careers and now I am having a hard time keeping up. I feel like I’m killing myself some days, just to take care of my children. I would like to correspond with you and get any information the doctors have given you, and any new information you may get. I will do the same for you. I feel like it is going to take a miracle to find out what is wrong at this point. I am still hopeful that there might at least be a treatment. I need my life back. My husband was also at Tallil AB. He has had some type of allergic skin condition since he has been back. It is called herticarea.
