Chris,
Wow. The symptoms you have identified in your youth seem to be describing mine.
From the low endurance, colds and congestion, the back problems (mine starting at 21 instead of 18), the alcohol intolerance, to the lack of perspiration.
The only symptom that you listed that I did not experience was the fevers (although, you did not experience this symptom until adulthood).
I also experienced epilepsy (which began at age 15) in addition to the symptoms you listed, but I suspect that the dysregulation of our body chemistry and hormones could potentially result in an almost infinite list of possible symptoms.
You had mentioned that you were raised in Minnesota (which is almost directly below my province of Saskatchewan).
This makes me wonder if the regional similarity might explain the symptom similarity, perhaps through a bug which is (or was) more predominant in this region?
If I ever identify any particular CWD that I am infected with, I will post it.
This makes me wonder if symptomatology were mapped geographically, if particular regions would reveal any commonalities of symptoms?
Regards,
- DaveW

I gotta jump on this one. I was a breach birth forceps delivery, and born severely jaundiced. My last living Aunt describes me as having been completely yellow at birth, eyes and all. My parents had incompatible blood types and both me and my brother were breach. Mom also had two miscarriages. Mom was my best friend and it pains me to say this but both my parents were alcoholic and I was born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. During the emergency forceps delivery the Dr pulled my ass out of joint or fractured my femur causing me to crawl sideways until I learned to walk. This also caused a leg length discrepency that requires a shoe lift on my right foot to help alliviate sciatic pain in the left side.
I was told by my Mother that I cried constantly for the first year and that as a child I would develop chicken pox yearly but only on one side. I mentioned this to a Physician during a slight case of the shingles and he said that being that they were only on one side shingles were more likely the cause. I am EBV active at 4.49 but I was never treated for Mono nor do I remember having it.
I have been lifting weights and running for almost 22 years (up till about 3 months ago) and I barely break a sweat. It's 72 degrees in here as I type this and I am freezing even though I am wearing a sweatshirt. A health fanatic since the Dx but pale skinned and mildly anemic and described by people as the sickest looking healthy guy that they know. A two beer drunk. A six pack would leave me hungover for days. Yea, I think these illnesses go back a long ways.
Past is past, but Thank God and Dr. Marshall we are getting better now.
Mic

If I ever identify any particular CWD that I am infected with, I will post it. Dr Marshall suggested that I would not be worried about what CWD it was, once I got better. However, that is really becoming a concern and I'd really like to know. It'd help me convince the rest of my family to get tested for the specific bug, and that would give a diagnosis which would make the use of MP easier for the family doc to prescribe.
They've all got some symptoms of auto-immune/hyper-VitD-osis, but are treating them as just part of normal life at the moment.

Hello (((Good Folks))),
I had mentioned earlier in this post, that if I ever found out which specific bacteria I was infected with, I would report it.
I tested positive for Borreliosis b., on the Bowen Q-RIBb test with a serial dilution value of 1:32
I tested negative for babesia and erlichia, but that does not rule out innumerable other possible (and even probable) co-infections I may be harbouring.
All the best.
Regards,
- DaveW
