Question: Does anyone know what illness(if any) I may be suffering from?
Hello, I've had chronic hives for about 5 months with increasing severity. In the beginning I would get them sporadically every few days, it gradually became a daily occurence but with anti-histamines they would stay away, now I have them 24/7 with the exception of the few hours a day the anti-histamines keep them at bay.
I have been suffering from joint pain for a year, low back pain for six months, diarrhea for a few months, lesions inside my mouth and on my tongue for the past few weeks and I constantly feel fatigued. My doctors don't seem to be able to determine the cause of these issues and I'm tired of not feeling well. If anyone can help me, I'd appreciate it.
Just some additional information, here are some treatments I've tried: Anti-histamines for the hives(my body is becoming resistant to them), blood work which indicated some allergies I may suffer from(they were later determined to be false positives by an allergist), avoidance of my possible food allergies pending an allergy scratch test later this month, and four days of a basically raw foodist diet with me consuming nothing but fruits, vegetables and rice(I still had symptoms).
I am scheduled to have additional blood work and the aforementioned allergy scratch test later this month, but I feel that my doctors are not as interested in helping me as they could be and I am so tired of feeling awful all the time. If anyone can help or give any suggestions of treatments or the possible causes of my symptoms I would be so appreciative.
Thank you so much!

I think it is Limes disease. Go to an infectious disease specialist doctor for an in depth blood work for this disease. It can occur without the circular rash. I am almost positive this is what you have.
problems from diabetes causing fatigue, lower back pain and joint pains? Avoid sugar. Get tested.
a food allergy creating the hives? tomatoes? try to isolate different foods.
maybe it's diabetes related too.
