The symptoms - headaches, nausea, fatigue, unexplained bruises, loss of appetite, etc.?!? So I feel all these symptoms lately and I was just hoping that the gurus of health may be some of you there would not have a clue. My current theory is that it's just stress, but I do not really know.
But yes. My headache is fairly constant, but varies in the amount of pain. At worst it is strong and it is debilitating, usually on the side of my head and behind the eyes (even if it varies.) I'm also nauseous a lot, which may or may not be related to my loss of appetite. In addition, I was randomly noticed bruises along my legs and my arms on some that I can not explain (and I do bruise easily!). I was also feeling very tired and weak, and sometimes I'll start to shake a little to the point where it is sensitive to other people.
Ideas? I do not think it serious enough to go see a doctor, I mean they'll only tell me it is stress anyway.
I think it's aplastic anemia ... ... http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/aplasti
Whatever it really is time to go to the doctor ... try an internist (a doctor of internal medicine which is reserved for adults and focuses on a problem in its entirety)
what ended up being your diagnosis? I'm having exactly the same symptoms and I'm just curious what has come to be yours. I have been to doctors and process blood work, but if I can help with my diagnosis with fewer tests would be great. I thank you. Report Abuse
This is not cancer or something like that. Most likely it is Migraines I get / have them too and I had nausea and vomiting really bad and fatigue. All the things you said are the symptoms of migraine. Going to the doctor, he gives you medicine or you take every day for the rest of your life to prevent them, or (what I take) medicine you take when you get the first signs of a migraine.
These are also signs of anemia especially bruising - a fact quickly CBC (blood) or if you do not want to go to the Dr. just yet - buy a bottle of 2.00 iron pills and see if you feel better after a week. It could be your thyroid, do a little Reasearch on hypothyroidism. Good Luck
Some of your symptoms of your stress realted, but not bruising. Do not scare you, but what are some symptoms of leukemia.
