Help

Just thought i would tell you my story and see if it is familiar. In March 2001 following losing a baby at 22 weeks pregnant and having surgery and a blood transfusion i started having very strange symptoms they all came out of the blue with a dizzy spell and palpitations starting the whole thing off then the following persisting symptoms started:

Pressure feeling in head

tinnitus

tingling/crawling sensation

burning feelings on skin that would move around

visual snow blurred vision

dizzyness

pin prick pain sensations

aching in muscles and joints that moves around

really bad muscle twitching especially in calves after exercise

I have probably missed some symptoms. Anyway i went to the doctor and was phobbed off with stress a few times then finally had a ct head and lumbar puncture all ok. Then phobbed off again. These symptoms have carried on for years and have flared up and down but never disappeared. in the last few months i have started getting slow heartbeats and dizzyness on standing and also on straining, talking coughing. I was bitten by a tick years ago and thought it may be lyme but my gp mentioned chronic fatigue syndrome. The only thing is i do have fatigue and tiredness but i have never had marked weakness and can always get up in the morning and go to work.

I thought the fatigue and tiredness was the main symptom.

Would appreciate any comments thanks
