Strange illness

Now that's something strange.  For no apparent reason, about 10 days or so ago, I started to have both legs covered with red dots, as if I had been bitten by some sort of insect or parasite.  As time grew, I ended up by having those dots creeping over my body, and they started to grow, and itch more and more, up to the point that I went to the hospital twice for this matter... the first time, we thought that with some cream, I,d get better soon, but at my second visit, I was almost paralyzed due to the pain...

I've been in the isolation room for about 3 days in overall, and after passing several tests (blood, cultures, etc), the doctors didn't find anything at all... as if it all appeared out of nowhere and struck me.

It is not contageous, and after cleaning up my appartment twice, there is no way that this can be some sort of parasite.

As time grew since these strange events started, I started to feel physically weak, and something has been lurking in my back.  Everytime I turn around to find out what it is, there is no one, nothing at all.  Is my mind playing up games on me again?

The doctors ordered me to stop taking my Zoloft medication, to see if this could be a cause or not of this situation.

It has been a week now since I stopped, and for the last four days I've had difficulties to sleep... if I ever sleep that is.  My wife also mentioned that I seem more and more anxious, as if troubled by something.

Sometimes I get visions.  But for some odd reason, I can never remember them clearly. Is it about me, about my surroundings, the world? I cannot say.

Stopping Zoloft might not have been the brightest idea, but mixing Zoloft and Codein is not a bright idea either.

My spots are dissapearing... the ones on my legs that is.  Because the ones on my chest are just evolving.  Will my chest feel the same paralyzing effect, I cannot say.

I have to go back to the doctor this week, but I don't feel like it.  Of course I'll go see him.  I really want to know what's going on.  It's just one of those unexplanable situations where someone becomes sick, for no apparent reason.

Let's hope, but I feel that this only the tip of the iceberg.
