I am hear the frustration in your message and can appreciate how you are feeling. I feel at a lose because if physicians have not been able to make a diagnosis, how can I.

Have you had any diagnostic testing for adrenal insufficiency?
Your adrenal glands produce a variety of hormones that are essential to life. The medical term adrenal insufficiency, or Addison's disease, refers to inadequate production of one or more of these hormones as a result of an underlying disease.

Signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency include:
Fatigue
Body aches
Unexplained weight loss
Low blood pressure
Lightheadedness
Loss of body hair

Adrenal insufficiency can be diagnosed by blood tests and special stimulation tests that show inadequate levels of adrenal hormones.
It is just a thought.
