Anxiety, Neck Pain, Tenderness In Stomach, Have Hepatitis B, Vestibular Dysfunction. Done Brain MRI. Prescribed Xanax. Help

Hello. I have been having some unusual symptoms the past 3 months after suffering some neck pain. I went to my MD and they drew blood tests and everything came back fine except for Hepatitis B, which is new to me. Doctors said I have anxiety and prescribed me Xanax (which I never took) but lately, my symptoms have gotten worse. The past few months, I got a "faint like" feeling while sitting in a chair. I had a Brain MRI done because of this and it was negative, not issues. Neurologist said it was a Vestibular Dysfunction. However, lately, I have been extremely tired and often going to bed by 8:30-9pm which is unusual for me since I used to always stay up until at least 11pm every night. I've also been noticing some tenderness in my stomach area and have lost approximately 20lbs in the past 2-3 months, mainly because I have had a decreased appetite (used to be hungry in the late hours but not any more). What could be causing this? I have a one month follow up with my doctor on Tuesday for the Hepatitis B. My last blood results showed everything in normal ranges and my HepBe Antigens were negative. However, my ALT and AST were High but "stable". What questions should I ask my doctor?

Dear sir,

Kindly ask your doctor if by any means you are suffering from fibromyalgia . It is a condition that can lead to this problem.
