undiagnosed please help



Hi, this is probably going to sound ridiculous but here goes. I have been
diagnosed with major depression, IBS, interstitial cystitis. But I have all
kinds of weird symptoms that are undiagnosed as of yet. Daily headaches
which feel like tension, numbness & tingling in my hands, feet, & one side of
my face. Electric shock like pains in my lower back which now moved to my
hands. There's a spot near my left elbow which will trigger this in my hand
sometimes too. I have pains in different spots in my stomach at different
times. Pain in my left jaw. Basically I have pain from head to toe sometimes.
(Not all at the same time) Trembling in my hands, sometimes just the left one.
Sometimes my lips even tremble. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning it
feels like my whole body is trembling. Certain sounds & voices sometimes
cause these "episodes" where I feel like I'm going to black out, either me or
things around me seem to be moving. Vertigo I guess you'd call it. & my head
seems to tilt just slightly to one side, & everything sounds funny, kinda
distant or something. This happened before several years ago every time I
would here this certain sound & lasted for only a second. (That's as long as
the sound lasted, if that matters) Now it was more like 10 seconds, which
again was as long as the sound lasted. But I believe if it had lasted longer
I would have passed out or something. It's hard to explain, such a weird
feeling. I wonder if it might be related to a seizure of some sort only
without losing conscousness. Also I've had short & long term memory problems
for several years, but it's alot worse now. It's hard to concentrate or think
of what I want to say most of the time. Also I'm extremely tired all the time.
I know some of this could be caused by the depression, which is severe right
now, but I need to know if there is something physical that could cause all
this including depression. Oh sore throat alot too. From my experience with
the dr.'s I've seen when you give them a list of symptoms like this it's like
they don't believe you or something. Maybe I just haven't seen a good dr.
I've only seen 3, & one was at the ER for chest pains, with a normal EKG &
chest x-ray. I was told it was probably a pulled muscle, but I know if I
pulled a muscle that badly I would have known about it.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
