I have been on here months ago now… Well i am back here again with still no answers.
I am not too sure what i wrote in my last story so i will start from the beginning and i hope to ahve replies asap…
Well I am now 22 years old and i have no children and generaly my health is ok. I do suffer with IBS and i used to have depression and i still have anxiety from time to time…
In 2005 i was suffering with excessive sweating that didnt smell and it was on and off most the time and has been since. I was given Driclor to try which helped to a degree but i was finding it too strong so i stoped using it and within time, when the stress was less i found it decreased but has never really gone.
In about July 2007 sometime i started having pain under my armpit, like an ache, so i checked it and i found a lump. To be honest i didnt think much of it and carried on as normal. The sweating started up again so i went to my doctor and he gave me Anhydrol forte and that helped the sweating alot. I shave every other day and i was told to cut that out abit as it was probably irriating it. Over the months it slowly was getting bigger and more painful and when i move my arm it aches too… I stopped wearing deodrant to see if that helped. Then i started to itch and as i scratched away it made my arm very swore, and by this stage i was still shaving and sometimes using Anhydrol forte.
Time past and it started to bug me because the pain had spread into the side of my breast and to me it felt lumpy, so i went back to the doctor and he gave me some anti botics. They didnt help in anyway so i went back but my doctor was always off so i seen another doctor and he gave me 2 lots of anti botics, stronger ones, nothing changed, so i went and seen the nurse, she didnt have a clue and she gave me a blood test to check for infection and glandular fever. They both told me it was nothing to worry about because of my age and that they didnt no what was wrong. They looked in books, asked other Doctors and nursing, i ever seen another doctor and he gave me other anti botics. They could feel the lumps and at that moment the surface wasnt irriated, shortly after it was due to me shaving too close etc. (This was going on for a few months)
No improvement just worsen if anything and becomeing uncomfortable.
I rang my doctor again and he told me the blood tests are all clear, no infection and no diebetis and no glandular fever so he suggested anti botics and see how it goes. I left it few weeks and rang back and he referred me to a dermatologist… I wasnt too sure why i was sent to one. Anyway i finaly got my oppointment and she seemed to not have a clue. Told me to put metrogel on it and use alcohol gel on it and she said i may just have a bug in it, so i tried it and my armpit killed when i applied it and my skin went red and immflamed when before outside was fine, so i stopped using it all…
I rang my doctor and said i wasnt happy and that earla that morning i had a letter saying i onyl seen a locom dermatologist and she wasnt wrongly doing her job and i needed to go asap for treatment. So on 15th jan 08 i went and he was a lovely bloke.
He said the sweating i can sort with botox injections and to stop irriation dont shave for 4 weeks and dont use dedrant so close and told me that the women shouldnt of gave me what she did. He made me sit on the bed, checked my arms when i moved, poked underneath, had a good feel and he said that is a seperate problem and you should be seeing a different specialist but it isnt my place to say who, you need to go see the GP asap and get a referral and he said he was going to write a letter aswel. He made it clear that they were too different problems and when together is annoying. He asked what was more the problem and i said the pain and the lump. I told him my breast hurts more these days but the other one never hurts and that i dont understand it. When i feel it, it dont feel right and it kills after, just like after he felt my armpit i could hardly move it after because it ached so much.
This is becoming annoying and why wont someone just help me like now instead of ages later… In general i feel exhusted all the time and i keep feeling extremly sick on and off and the last 2 weeks only i been getting alot of headaches…
Any ideas please and what should i do???
I rang my doctor yesterday and guess what hes off again and i spoke to another one but he ant GOT A CLUE!! Is there anything i can do without them??!!
thankyou nic xxxxxxxxxxx
