Hello, maybe someone here can help me with this. I'm having trouble figuring these symptoms out, my GP and now a neurologist I saw recently weren't much help. Symptoms started about two years ago. A strange pain affects my entire body but its most prominent on my torso, mostly affecting my shoulders/arms, upper-back, chest and stomach.
Any slight stimulation or change in temperature can illicit the pain and it can feel hot and burning sometimes but also like a chill that will present with goose bumbs everywhere (sort of like when you have a fever.) Night sweats are another one, every morning I wake up in sweat. And a hyper-sensitivity to sound and smell. This one can be difficult to be objective about because once you realize your bring startled easily you become hyper-aware, but I believe the degree to which moderate sounds and smells/tastes can irritate me is not normal and is not something which was always present.

Two major events preceded the symptoms. First, in November 2010 I was hospitalized when septicemia from an unknown infection apparently got into my blood causing septic shock. I was treated with wide-spectrum antibiotics (which exactly I'll know soon when I get the reports from the hospital) and spent two weeks in the hospital. I was also treated with methadone for these two weeks related to complications from the septic shock.
The other thing I can remember which happened around this time was I was put on lamictal about two weeks after release from the hospital. This was for bi-polar depression, I was already on seroquel and geodon at this time and the psych dis-continued the geodon and started lamictal. I can't remember exact dates but it was around this time that I started to have (I think) neurological sensory symptoms. I started to feel pretty bad on my last day before I was even discharged from the hospital.

I thought I was feeling withdrawal since they had stopped the methadone but the Dr.s said I wasn't on it long enough to cause dependance. Basically what happened from then until now is that the feeling of "withdrawal" never truly went away, but of course now it is far too long to be withdrawal. The neuro did some blood work. Vit D(15) Vit B12(392) Hemoglobin(17.2) Hematocrit(52) TSH(4.58) Free T4(4.2) T3 uptake(36%). I started supplementing D3 and B-12, Dr said hematological stuff is because I smoke, and to repeat thyroid tests in four weeks. Everything else was normal.
Neuro didn't order any other tests and didn't seem to concerned or interested. I had Lyme in 2008 when I was 16 which was treated, that was also tested for and came back negative. Any comments or insight is appreciated, I've been researching a lot and its quite frustrating as my symptoms don't seem to really "fit" anything. Thanks for reading.
