I've been sick for awhile now, and no one can figure it out, I'm going to see an endocrinologist and obgyn. I was wondering if anyone might have an idea.

Here is my symptoms. and medical history.

14.Wounds slow to heal.
15.Moderate muscle aches.
16.Chronic headache.

•Last December, collapsed at work and was found to have had hemoglobin of 5.4 when sent to St. John hospital. Had a blood transfusion and two iron transfusions. Hemoglobin rose and then dropped after periods, was given more iron transfusions (about 4) and then was put on high does birth control pill to take every day to completely stop periods. No transfusions since birth control pill regime. No one has ever found the reason why my hemoglobin dropped in the first place.

Existing medical problems:
Suffered from Anorexia sophomore year when I started diet to lose weight due to being overweight. (6’1” and 227lbs and went to 125lbs within a year) Had regained weight and was a stable 145.
Severe Anemia.
Possible fibromyalgia, seeing doctor.
Depression and Anxiety.
Hypothyroidism, taking synthriod.
POTS. (Blood rushes to legs when standing or sitting for too long, been prescribed support stockings)

Prescriptions:
Necon 1/50
Leveythroxine (synthriod) 50 mg.
Dabbled with diet pills, and some mild diuretics in past.
Flintstone vitamins.
Been prescribed miralax and colace regime for chronic constipation.

I'm just wanting some ideas and possible information to better communicate with my doctors.

Sounds like hypothyroidism. They may have to adjust your medication again.
