    What a mixed up group of symptoms. I think the only advice I have for you is to "chart" all this. Remember that doctors deal in measurable facts–not generalities.

    For example: "My pulse is really fast" is different than Pulse = 120 at 3pm, lasted for two hours. No activity to trigger this.

    SYMPTOM and Date
    Heart rate:
    Number of hours slept (or NOT!)
    Weight:
    Nausea:
    Joint pain:

    REMEMBER: IF YOU BEGIN TO ITCH, OR RUN A FEVER–CALLYOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY AND STOP THE MEDICATION.

    This can be a start, at least.
