Relist: I still need help.
in addition to the excessive weight loss, anemia and low white cells, they found I have hypomagnesemia,low calcium they say I have 2 rare conditions but cannot give them a name. my daughter asked the consultant was the condition I have life threatening he said he couldn't say that it wasn't yet still no one can tell me what it is. I am so tired and weak all the time by 2pm each day my day is over as I feel 2 ill and tired to do anything other than lie down. I'm on calcium and Magnesium tablets daily, i have also been on iron tablets continiously since september 2005 yet I'm still anemic. I experience a lot of pain in the top of my stomach and in my chest. Despite the daily calium and magnesium I take I repeatedly have to undergo magnesium infusions daily for five days at a time yet still my levels drop usually to around 0.28. I get involuntary twitches to my hands, legs and feet I get cramps and spasms in the same areas and get a lot of pain in my back usually in the lower half. As the end of each week arrives I feel weaker and more ill, can all this be connected? I read on the net that with hypomagnesemia there is usually an underlying condition if this is true what could it be, do you think all the symptoms are connected. I have seen a lot of consultants who always end up saying they are passing me on to someone else more experienced as they can't do anymore but still i don't get the answers. I'm 47 and feel like 70, I still can't get back to work and my general quality of life is poor. My children are all worried as they are all adults themselves and have seen the physical changes in me and are worried that something is really wrng. I don't want them to be right and that because it's all been left to go on for so long without finding out why or what it is that it will be too late. Is there anything else you can suggest or work out from the symptoms I given you? thank you for your time.
