The newest update:
My ANA and ANCA blood results are negative, so it's not autoimmune
All blood work is perfectly fine...

I have to clue what to check next, I refuse to put "idiopathic" label in it

I guess I'll check genetics
Will run vit profile as well but I have a feeling nothing is there, I'm a carnivorous and my diet it's pretty reasonable
Hi banjanti

In regard to starting "a full cocktail of supplements" - you may want to consider starting them one at a time with 3-4 weeks between a new one. That way you might be able to tell if it's helping or not. If you start them all at once you won't know which ones are working - equally if you have any adverse effects you won't know which one is causing it. Also keep in mind that some supplements/medications may take 3 months or more to show any beneficial effect - research the therapeutic properties before starting.

All the best for finding some effective supplements and please come back and let us know what you find works for you.

You have a very valid point here, however I'm desperate for a relief
As you've noted it takes time to see if they work

What I wanted to give a shot in a combo advised here:
B12
acetyl carnitine (starting at one gram a day in divided doses)
alpha lipoic acid 600mg a day or r-lipoic 100mg a day
benfotiamine 300mg a day*

I'll report here, hopefully it will be some help for others
