Not Sure What's Going on With me

[Kirstenmumof3]

It started a month ago with flu like symptoms, then got worse. I went to a walk in Clinic and saw a doctor on call. I had a really bad sinus infection, ear infection and throat infection. That was 3 weeks ago finished the Antibiotics and still was not feeling any better. So I called to make an apt. with my Family Doctor, but he wasn't booking until November, so his receptionist told met that he was on call at the Clinic yesterday.

So here are all my symptoms:
left ears plugged
sinus pressure on the left side of my face
headaches
slight cough
fatigue
hot/cold

nausea
diareah/constipation
pain in my abdomen
stomach cramps

So my doctor checked my sinuses and my ear. He said the ear infection is gone, but that I am still feeling the pressure from the sinuses. He prescribed another antibiotic. He also did an abdominal exam and as soon as he put the stethoscope on my stomach it hurt. Then he was pressing on my stomach and OMG did that every hurt! So he has me going for blood work, a sinus x-ray, abdominal ultrasound and a bowel x-ray (which has to be done at the hospital, the rest can be done at the clinic).

So I had the bloodwork and sinus x-ray today, I have the abdominal ultrasound next Wednesday and I just have to wait for the hospital to call for the bowel x-ray. The bottom symptoms have been going on longterm, but I have been affraid to talk to my doctor about them. It's hard for me because of my mental illness, because I don't think that Doctors will believe me or take me seriously or that they will think I'm a Hypochondriac!

I'll keep you posted as to what the test results say. My biggest fear is that nothing will turn up!

I am so sorry you are feeling bad. I hope you feel better.

~~~GET WELL VIBES~~~

And dont worry about the mental health thing. If you dont feel right then by all means get it checked. I would rather look stupid and nothing be wrong than me wait forever and find out it was something major.
