Good morning,
I am so happy to see all of these replies!
I'm sorry if I don't answer all of the questions on the first shot, but here it goes.

Thyroid - been tested more times than I can count. I know I am on the hyper side, because I am thin, jumpy, quick digestion, etc. Even a naturopathic doctor looked at the results and said it was fine. My only abnormal test results are always low creatinine levels, and low blood sugar. If I don't eat every couple hours, I am in big trouble.

Regarding immunological explanations - my neurologist that I just saw once a week ago said that she would refer me to a rheumatologist ( that could take up to 9 months here in Ottawa, Ontario)
However, she did give me a sheet for blood work which includes ANA, RA factor, and others, and I did that this morning.

Unfortunately, I have found nothing that helps the bladder. Obvious things like avoiding caffeine are a good start. I go to the washroom frequently, and have episodes of burning with no infection. I've had two cystoscopies, because we were convinced that I had interstitial cystitis. But no ulcers. Finally realized that it was a nerve issue, when everything else started acting up.

Mrs D- the burning in the pelvic area including thighs led to the laparoscopy.
I don't have edema, and no breathlessness. Well, sometime the opiates suppress my breathing but that is different .

I have been tested for food I tolerance, and the only big one that came up was eggs. So I avoid those. I eat so much and so often that I am not able to tell if certain foods affect me. I NEED to start a food journal.

I have done two candida cleanses. I didn't feel much different after. I do crave sweets, but I attribute that to my wonky blood sugars. I don't have any brain fog or fatigue ( other than an afternoon slump)

I'll leave it at that. Appreciate the responses. Let's keep brainstorming!!
