results back. She said they are normal, but I have an elevated white
blood cell count. I was so sure I had figured out what had been wrong
with me for as long as I can remember, and I feel like maybe there is
more testing that can be done. I have an extensive medical history,
but these are the symptoms I've had.
I am a 23 year old female, in good shape and I eat very very healthy.
-Elevated white blood cell count.
-For as long as I can remember, I've had hand tremors. I was tested
for iron deficiency, and my levels were fine.
-I have an extremely fast resting heart rate.
-I have a severe intolerance to heat, and I sleep with my fan on and
window open, 365 days a year. I am always hot when everyone else is
cold.
-Just recently I have had extreme cases of vertigo, sometimes taking
me to the floor. I was put on anti-vertigo medication, but it is not
that effective and also makes me very sleepy.
-I have insomnia, and I am always having to take over the counter
sleeping pills, otherwise I will not fall asleep until 7am.
-I am winded easily, despite being in shape.
-My hair is very straight and fine, but randomly I will develop these
almost nappy patches of hair, completely kinked, as if it were African
American hair. I will also randomly get very greasy hair at the crown
of my head, that does not go away with washing. I had to attack it
with dish detergent, mouth wash and baking soda to make it go away!
