I would seriously look into intestinal pathogens. I hadnt felt "right" for nearly a decade and every time I brought it up to the doc I was blown off. I finally started researching the various pathigens and found one that seemed to fit my symptoms. Got an antibody test for it which came back positive. Went back to doc, he ordered stool test which he said was negative and sent me on my way. Ive heard conflicting reports from various docs on how long antibodies stick around after pathogen has been removed but got anywhere from a year to forever.
I talked to another doc who said if I had never been treated and antibodies existed he would run me through the proper therapy to be safe. I then decided to get another genova diagnostics GI test and it also showed positive for what I suspected as well as another bug. I started self treatment and immediately got a herx reaction from die off. I spent 60 days using 2 different homeopathic treatments and feel so much better now.

Any time I here of a lab test that indicates generalized inflammation, I immediately think of the Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory that a) doctors ignore and are grossly ignorant about, and b) the only essential hormone. (If your adrenals are not making it - you die in about 24 hours from generalized inflammation.)
Cortisol (aka hydrocortisone or its concentrated cousins, prednisone and what I take (methyl prednisolone - my own dosage is now down to 1 mg daily.))
Since the medical profession seems to have lost the knowledge about the safe uses of cortisol - it is almost impossible to get proper hormone replacement, but I have found a lab that accurately tests for cortisol in saliva. This West Coast labt found my cortisol to be about "2 mg" low - all day - exactly what I had to take at the time.
The only chance of getting replacement cortisol is finding an open minded doc with time to read SAFE USES OF CORTISOL, 3rd Edition, by William Mck Jefferies.
According to the cases in this book, most people start to have "adrenal fatigue" (low output) starting around age 50 or so.
In my case, all the vitamin C in the world did not overcome the malfunction in my adrenals, but yes, I agree, bowel tolerance vitamin C can help reduce symptoms.

Sounds like they are treating the symptoms and not the underlying problem.
