When I am sick

  I wrote that I’m currently sick. If someone finds me dead, this is why. (Practical doctor doesn’t know exactly what is there with my person.) 


Summary 


🦠 Initial Symptoms (about 4 weeks ago):

Sudden fatigue, sleeping almost 24 hours

Nausea, loss of appetite, flu-like symptoms

Muscle pain, body aches

Parainfectious state with pressure sensations, internal restlessness, indescribable “strange feelings in the body”


😷 Subsequent Course:

Inflammation in the left ear (treated)

Followed by a tooth infection (left molar) → drainage, pain, minimal food intake

After improvement, a return of “flu-like” symptoms and physical weakness, fever 38 °C


💊 Treatment:

Erdomed, Ventolin

Long-term use of ibuprofen during illness and for dental pain


🩺 Laboratory Findings:

CRP within normal range

Electrolyte imbalance (specific values not provided)

Elevated magnesium


🚨 Current Symptoms:

Persistent pain and pressure in the chest area, probably especially on the left side

Whole-body pain

Prolonged fatigue, often sleeping all afternoon

Today: Sharp, sudden one-time pain radiating from the chest to the legs, ending in a shock-like feeling, after that, sleeping all afternoon

•       Sensitivity to touch: discomfort from clothing rubbing against the skin and from normal contact with objects

Pulling sensation in fingertips, feeling the need to slow the body down, non-specific discomfort during normal movements

Paradoxically, I can physically handle heavy exertion (7×100 push-ups, for example), but ordinary movements feel strange

Relief when lying down – fewest symptoms in this position

Ammonia-like smell in urine over the past two days


📍  Infection as a Trigger (AI summary)

• You clearly had an infection: fatigue, inflammation, fever, cough, shortness of breath, inflammation in the ear or tooth → the body was systemically weakened.

• These conditions (especially viral infections) can trigger:

  • post-infectious inflammation of nerves or their sheaths

  • an autoimmune response – the body starts attacking its own tissues (including nerve tissue)

  • inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis) or the pericardium (pericarditis) →  the same possibility mentioned doctor


🧠 Suspected Conditions (by AI):

Post-infectious neurological involvement (e.g. sensory neuropathy, dysautonomia)

Post-infectious myocarditis / pericarditis 

Electrolyte imbalance with possible metabolic complication (including kidney involvement)
