    Is this normal?

    Are these symptoms normal? I am really tired most of the time, without doing anything. That is probably the worst of my complaints, the rest I can deal with. But my head feels unusually heavy and the back of my neck burns (like a massive sunburn that won't go away) and the burning spreads...

    Cat Scan anyone?

    I had a cat scan w/contrast done a couple of months ago. For 2 weeks afterwards everything was worse...pain, fatigue, brain fog; I'm still a little worse than before the procedure. I even got the onset of new pain (like I needed that) in my hips. The hair has basically slowed down to almost a...
