Hi Megan,
I'm not very knowledgeable about autoimmune diseases. I have had MS since the late 1970s and try to keep up with developments in that field. It isn't known for certain that MS is an autoimmune disorder.
Anyway it sounds as if you're suffering considerably and I hope that the doctors who are treating you will find some answers that will be helpful soon.
I'm struck by the list of medicines you're taking:

I'm on paracetamol, oramorth (morphine sulthate) dihydrocodeine, ibuprofen, buscopan, amatriptaline, peppermint oil, deloxatine, quatiapine, omeprazole, cefalexine (my profalactic antibiotic), cyclazine, ondansatron, zopiclone, my anti histomeine, movicol, scenna, docisate sodium and suppositories.

That's a fairly long list. I hope that your doctors have been looking closely at each of them to check for possible adverse effects and drug interactions. Quite often seemingly unexplainable symptoms turn out to be caused by a drug the person is taking--or by a combination of drugs that has triggered a problem.
