Just a little down (because of physical stuff)

I'm just a little down right now due to my physical problems of an unknown cause.

I was planning on going to the drive in tonight to watch Harry Potter because going to the movie theater causes me too much anxiety. Around 7 pm I started feeling sick, like the feeling I get all too often now. It starts out with me feeling incredibly hot but no matter what I try I can't cool down. I then start to feel nauseous and dizzy. I get really sleepy and just can't function. I kind of stumble from one place to the next, unable to stand for extended periods of time.

I know I won't be able to stay awake for the whole movie and I'm afraid that I'll get pretty sick. Sometimes I start shaking/twitching really bad. Oliver does alert to these episodes but with an alert he typically uses for when I get really frustrated with something (due to OCD). It always throws me off because when he does it I know I'm not frustrated. I don't know what's going on but I want an answer. I want my life back. This isn't supposed to be happening. I'm 19, I should be able to do things that I want to do.

I've been having trouble with hearing all day, which is really weird. My vision has been going out of focus all day as well. I want to be able to walk Oliver without having to worry about falling. I want to be able to walk without looking like I'm heavily intoxicated. I want to be able to walk from the car across the parking lot without feeling like I ran a marathon. I don't want to feel uncomfortably hot all the time. I want my life back.

Just a few years ago I played soccer. I ran 3 miles a day, I rode my bike up to 9 miles at a time. I know what being out of shape feels like and this is not it.

I have trouble walking down our hall. I stumble between the walls, running into them several times. I have to lean against the railing on stairs or else I trip and stumble down them.'

It has almost been 2 1/2 years since this all started. I am no closer to an answer today as when it all began. I had an MRI done Thursday. I kind of hope there is something there, some sort of answer. I just want an answer, is that too much to ask?

I keep wondering how I'm going to make it in college this semester. I can barely make it through a day at home. I can't even make it out longer than 30 min at a grocery store. How will I make it through class changes and going up and down stairs? How will I sit through class and what if I drop something on the floor? If I bend over to pick something up most times I fall over. I tried to kind of squat next to Oliver for a picure today but ended up falling on my butt.

Sorry, I just needed to let that out. I have an appointment at the neurologist again on August 17th. I just hope there is some answer.
