Have Eyelid Inflammation, Fever, And Extreme Fatigue. All Test Done But No Solution. What To Do?

Over the past 2 years I have been tested for about everything. Docs recently diagnosed Fibromyalgia...but some symptoms don't fit. Eyelid inflammation, butterfly red rash (came and went) costchondritis, low grade fever, chills, extreme fatigue and more. Blood work indicates slight inflammation. Something else is wrong. What can it be?


It's not the cost...just don't have the confidence that after seeing six doctors who can't give me an answe, that a doctor can diagnose me over the internet

Hi there ~

I understand your concerns, and your problem description fit more into an autoimmune disease pattern rather than fibromyalgia. I hope you have been adequately treated after testing for autoimmune diseases. Prednisolone is helpful with your condition and if you improve you most likely had the diagnosis of autoimmune disease. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
