Extreme fatigue, numbness, rashes, muscle aches, why do I feel sooo sick?

So I have been running a low grade fever for over 2months now. Have had extremeeee fatigue, body aches, like the worst body flu ever, naseau, and now.. rashes. I got one last wk when I was in the sun for 5 minutes, my back turned into bright red blotches that lasted two days. I got little tiny hard bumps two wks ago that got larger and are now starting to calm down. A wk before that I had one on both sides of my neck and lower under arms, red turned purple cracked bled and chapped off. Not to mention that my chest has been bright red, looks like a sunburn for over a month. In the last few days my ft and hands have started to get tingly and I woke up two mornings ago and the right side of my upper body felt numb and achy, hard to move it. Also felt very weird sick at this time. chest pains, memory sux, and have to pee every 5 min. One dr gave me a nerve block injecton, and said i may have a bladder disease. I had abnormal cells on my cervix, a something on my ovary, and had three inches taken out of my back for precancer a typical cells all in the last three months. All of that came back fine. My dermatalogist completly sluffed me off saying to stop shaving my arms and I must have just developed a sun allergy. The bumps are also where I dont shave my arms with are not my hair folicles and how do you just develope a sun allergy?? Please if you have any ideas Im getting so frustrated. I am 25yrs, healtly eater, yoga, runner. Happy no stress life, not depressed, not sexually active no STDs. I want to feel fantastic and I do not. :( Thanks

Sounds like Glandular fever i had it!!! it’s so bad!

Glandular fever

Glandular fever (or kissing disease) is the common term used to describe an acute viral infection called infectious mononucleosis.

Mononucleosis has a set of common symptoms that are usually presented in the individual with the disease. The classical symptoms are a sore throat, fever, fatigue, weight loss, malaise, pharyngeal inflammation and petechiae, and common signs include lymphadenopathy (enlarged lymph nodes), splenomegaly (enlarged spleen), hepatitis (refers to inflammatory cells in the liver) and hemolysis (the bursting of red blood cells). Older adults are less likely to have a sore throat or lymphadenopathy, but are instead more likely to present with hepatomegaly (enlargement of the liver) and jaundice. Rarer signs and symptoms include thrombocytopenia (lower levels of platelets, with or without pancytopenia (lower levels of all types of blood cells), splenic rupture, splenic hemorrhage, upper airway obstruction, pericarditis and pneumonitis. Another rare manifestation of mononucleosis is erythema multiforme.[8][9]

Mononucleosis is sometimes accompanied by secondary cold agglutinin disease—an autoimmune disease in which abnormal circulating antibodies directed against red blood cells can lead to a form of autoimmune hemolytic anemia. The cold agglutinin detected is of anti-i specificity.[10] Patients with infectious mononucleosis are sometimes misdiagnosed with a streptococcal pharyngitis (because of the classical clinical triad of fever, pharyngitis and adenopathy) and are given antibiotics such as ampicillin or amoxicillin as treatment. Some studies indicate that approximately 80-90% of patients with acute Epstein Barr virus infection treated with such antibiotics develop a red, diffuse rash.[11]

    where were you two or three months ago (USA, abroad, mexico)? have you changed living accommodations during that time? have any of your family members or close friends exhibited such symptoms? do you have any pets? what kind? It may be that the fly symptoms are unrelated to the skin problems.

    You speak as though you’ve been to several doctors. Do you not have a regular GP? You’re getting nowhere skipping around. See a general practitioner or an internist and make that guy your main doctor. If he thinks you should see a specialist, let him make the referral.
