It turns out he's had two sleeping pneumonia infections this whole time - they've gone septic and embedded in his blood cells, apparently. This could cause a ton of his symptoms. M. Pneumonia and C. Pneumonia. And he's severely Vit. D deficient, his thyroid is enlarged and his E-Os are elevated, whatever those are (something to do with allergies, but he hasn't had allergies lately . . . doc is investigating other causes of this, may be autoimmune).
So she gave him a MONTH of Doxycycline, 100mg twice a day, and Vit. D, and acidophilus probiotics.
FINALLY a test came back positive for SOMETHING! The more I think about it, the more this makes sense. I'm so relieved. This is doctor #12. Oh, and by the way? She's not even a doctor, she's a nurse-practitioner. And she's busting her butt for us, and she's more creative than the doctors . . . I'm impressed with her. Some of my best doctors have been nurse-practitioners.

a very relieved wife,
