Physical health of my 19 year old

Hi All

I really need some help! My 19 year old has had physical health issues for years but we are getting nowhere with finding out what is causing them. The varying ailments are; chest pains, stomach pains, diarrhoea, raising heart (up to 210bpm), extreme tiredness.

She has had so many tests and even a few surgeries but the doctors find nothing. They are now suggesting Munchausen Syndrome! I know there is more to this than that. 

Has anyone else had experience of this or can recommend any private medical professionals who may be able to help?

    Can I suggest you a thyroid check? I had similar problems, and I got them fixed after I got my thyroid checked. If your GP does not want to prescribe the blood tests, they are about 50 pounds from Medichecks.
