gout carpal tunnel syndrome (sudden onset) hypochondria (I think) Hepatitis C Hepatitis B Does this count? From the doctor at the Student Health Service--"Ah, I don't know what you have but it's definitely something. Your symptoms are sort of like mono but your bloodwork is the opposite of mono. Come back so we can draw more blood to check." The blood checks went on for weeks and weeks until my then-beau said, "Don't you realize they're experimenting on you--your blood? Maybe you'd get better if they stopped sucking all your blood!" (I stopped giving blood every few days and I did get better! The fatigue and pounding head went away. Babs? Lyme? This was 1975-76 at the University of Minnesota.)

At age 10, possible juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Knee problems at at 12, was told by the specialist that it was from growing and that your knees haven't fused together just yet.
Mono at 17, which took me longer than most to get over. Raynoids by 19. Boarder line lyme by 22 and treat for a month.
After a month told I had fibro. From 22 to 33 the headaches and illnesses got worse. 33 treated for Fibro.
Finally by 39 treat properly for lyme

I was diagnosed with MS. I never saw a psych. but at that time I could have easily been diagnosed with mental illness. I like to call it my "early, squirrelly Lyme daze". Every pun intended.
