So first off i am 15. I have been dealing with pain and such in my abdoman for almost a year now. First i randomly got asthma symptoms. Nothing helped that. Finally in january they diagnosed me with GERD which is acid reflex. Since last august i have been sick a lot and had a ton a pain everyday and they finally did a ct scan and found out my spleen was about twice the size it should have been and there were swollen lymph nodes in my groin area.

The spleen hurts still. Its a daily struggle and nothing helps it go down. The doctor did a regular blood work
came back fine and now im going to see a GI specialist but idk if she can help..

I also am always tired. im 15 and sleep a lot. A full 9 hour nights sleep is nowhere close to what my body needs. I am also dizzy, light headed, sometimes nauseas and just feeling bad. I also get headaches a lot lately. almost everyday..

Any ideas would help!
 
why is your spleen enlarged?
why are the lymphnodes in the groin enlarged?
you have several symptoms so obviously it's not so easy to get a diagnosis.
if the doctor doesn't know why your spleen is double in size and why those node are
enlarged, the first thing i would suggest is that you get those nodes biopsoed.
insist on this simple procedure that will give you definate answers.
you are way too young to be feeling this way.
i hope i was of some help.
