Hello to all!
My name is Rok (25) and I am from Slovenia (EU). If someone could give me some advice please help me.
My chronic illnes started in April 2003 when I was 23. I never had any illnes before. First I had problems with constipation and abdominal pain. I have been diagnosed with IBS. At the same time problems started in the mouth. I had sore and painable throat, pain in my right ear, inflammed upper left side of my gum (red colour), pain in my temporamandibular joint and neck muscle on the right, and a lot of mucous all the time. I have been diagnosed with chronic sore throat and TMJ. Then in Avgust - September I realised that I have problems with emptying my bladder, low back pain and sometimes vertigo. Some problems with speech, memory and a lot problems with concentrations started. Then mild pain in elbows and shoulders showed up and joint crecks in knees. I had have a lot stiffness in my legs especialy in ligaments and tendons. I had have a swollen soles and muscles from knees to soles (like water in musclesand around the ancles) . Then in the begining of year 2004 problems with arms weekness and numbnes set in. I noticed tingling in my left leg. Then problems with my bladder became more intense (bad urine flow presure - cant emptying totaly, pain and rarely burning) and neurologist made an EMG on that area and diagnosed cauda equina syndrome. I did a lot of tests and everything had been all right except an EMG. Then in july 2004 the worst symptoms started. And that is fine tremors with more weaknes. 1. left arm, 2. right arm, 3. both legs and than mild tremor in neck. I notice tremors sometimes even in eyelids. People around me say that they cant see any tremors at all, but inside me I feel terrible buzzing, vibration, and restlessnes. The neurologist made an MRI of my spine and spinal tap for oligoclonal bands becouse he thought of MS. The MRI and spinal tap showed nothing specific but he wanted me to repeat a MRI after one year : diagnosis - probable MS. Then in october some rheumatologist diagnosed me with fibromyalgia. I sometimes have clummy palms and have stripes on it. Many times I have dry mouth and 2 or 3 times I noticed metalic taste. In january 2005 problems with my heart started. Sometimes like palpitations, sometimes like nervousnes and allmos all the time like hard not fast but hard beat of heart. I feel sometimes this hard beat in neck or back or in my left arm especialy when I laydown. One or two times I had problems with my eyes too like 2 picture for moment but have had a lot problems with sun light (sensitivites - my eyes water). Of course deppresion and fatigue is present and mood changes. I have 8 negative lyme tests and have some mercury amalgams in my teeth. In addition I would like to tell you that prior to this disease I slept 2 days (december 2002) in my room in a new house. Parquet was freshly varnished and it smelled terribly. Do you think that this varnish could contain mercury, lead or some other heavy metal. I worked at the gas station at this time but we were selling gas without lead.
I hope someone could help me
Thanks to all

P.S. Recently I ordered Heavy metal screen test for urine and NDF from Bio Ray for challenge. I hope this is the couse of my illnes.
