Default Any Suggestions of What to Do?

I am seventeen years old, and for the past three years I have been having medical issues. So far I have been diagnosed with billary dyskenisa, and neuroly-mediated hypotension. However, what the doctors have not been able to address are the following symptoms:
- Fatigue
- Nausea
- Bone and Muscle Pain
- Headaches in the temple on the right hand side
- Right sided weakness
- For a time I had Right Legged Paraylsis and a dropped foot
- Temors in the right side (especially the right hand)

The doctors have ruled out a stroke. On the MRI of my brain prior to the most recent one there were iron deposits in the contralateral basal ganglia of my brain, but on the most recent MRI they weren't there. The doctors are at a lose of what to do right now, and are just trying to minimize the symptoms. Could this be parkinsons? Is there anything more I can do to get a diagnosis or perhaps improve daily life? Currently I am taking l-dopamine, celebrex, bentyl, and midodrine. Also, I go to physical and occupational therapy three times a week.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
