Precursor : I Have Anxiety, Secondary Reynauds, On And Off

Precursor : I have anxiety, secondary reynauds, on and off insomnia and and a kidney functioning problem of which doctors have struggled to diagnose. I had a spitz naevus removed from my ankle at age 16. I am not diabetic.

I am a 24 year old, active woman who has been active her whole life. I have no medicinal or non medication allergies. I am not on any medications. I have a copper IUD.

History: I When I was born I was struggling with my kidney function. I was in and out of children’s hospitals and the doctors couldn’t figure out the problem. Just as they went to take further measures, it resolved its self. Then when I was about 12 it came back. Fatigue, I become anaemic practically over night, urine samples showing over spillage of protine, abnormal bloodwork, low blood pressure, low heart rate, struggling to get over any illnesses and overall feeling weak. They ran more tests and then decided that my reynauds disease was secondary to it. Once they attempted to do a biopsy of my kidney, it resolved itself yet again. It did this off and on, every 3-12 months for the next 5 years. Then one day it just never came back. I’m now 24 and I believe it’s back again. I have a few different symptoms this time though.

Currently: I don’t know if these are all connected but I have the following symptoms: Cloudy urine, fatigue no matter how much I sleep, weakened muscles, inability to fight off ear and sinus infections (even with antibiotics course), mid back right pain over kidney (not consistent, stabbing searing pain in flashes), dry mouth and inability to feel hydrated, some times my hands swell and other times I get a feeling of not being able to close them with no swelling, low blood pressure and heart rate (the low heart rate is semi normal for me as I have been athletic my whole life), and a general feeling of unwell.

I’m just wondering, in your professional opinion, what you think of all this?
