Thank you both! Great suggestions and links. I'm definitely going to see how I continue to feel and then decide on my next steps. I guess I'm just starting to feel crazy from all these symptoms, results, and lack of any diagnosis! But, I know I'm not alone and appreciate your responses.

you might also consider getting a 2nd opinion. i don't like drs that chalk problems up to just migraines or stress, or hormones. to me, that dr isn't really listening to you. they're not validating you or really looking for a dx or reason for the problem. dx = diagnosis.
take a deep breathe and formulate a plan of action. if any other plan makes sense then pursue it; like a 2nd opinion. you may have to let a few months go by and see how you are. sometimes MS, or other illness, isn't dx'd right away.
you are your own best advocate. don't give up.
