Advertisement Response from Dr. Young I'm not sure what is the cause of your symptoms. It does sound like your doctor has done many of the evaluations that I would have started with. Unfortunately, a more precise determination would require many details that are beyond the scope of the forum. I'd advise you to continue to work with your doctor (even get a second opinion, if necessary) to find the cause. Good luck. BY Want to read more questions and answers on this subject?
