What would you do?

Six years of pain and Doctors telling you that you were fine. Six years of debilitating headaches that just got worse as time went by. What would you do?

Right now I'm crying, stupid I know, but it hurts. It always hurts.

One Doctor told me that it was in my head and because I wasn't active enough. Because I was overweight and depressed.

Another Doctor told me it was just allergies. She gave me medicine and told me I'd be fine.

The next Doctor wanted to give me medication. He said if I slept more and had strong pain medication I’d be fine.

They all took blood. so much blood, but it never told them anything. they weren't looking for the right things. or was it just because I was making up the pain?

I was thirteen when I started to gain weight for no reason. fourteen when my headaches started. fifteen when I started to have other health problems. by eighteen I gave up on Doctors, they didn't do anything and I just got worse.

Answers:
The doctors you have been seeing are trying to help you, and after seeing so many without conclusive results, your problems are most likely psychologically induced.

I have a similar problem, Im only 21, but if I don't have enough strenuous physical activity in a week, I find myself always tired and depressed, those emotions affected my personality, and I then passed those same feelings to other people, and naturally would push them away, kind of an endless cycle of sorts.

Watch your diet too, not how much you eat, but more importantly what you’re eating. After a few weeks on a good diet, I give in to the convenience of fast food, and every time my body reacts negatively. I can feel how bad that food is for me.

This is just a bit of friendly advice, this is what works for me.

keep your head up,

Pituitary sounds right.. please make sure you follow up with all appointments.. I am praying for you!
I had to undergo severe migraines for many years while I was growing up and I did the rounds of many doctors too. However I finally managed to control them by altering my diet, losing weight, taking yoga and meditation classes and a good sleeping pill occasionally. You're not alone out there, try to normalize your life (balanced diet, exercise etc.) and you'll get out of this. You should consider seeing a psychologist.
I would ask for a referral to a neurologist who can find out the real cause of your pain. I also got three different diagnosis's from general practitioners and didn't know what to think! It turns out I get both sinus and migraine headaches.
make sure they finished all tests then you can really see if it's really in your head
maybe you do have too much stress, this may result by your routine activities, your genes, or mysteriously occur
i'd suggest start getting more active and stop worrying
if you worry, then you're going to be thinking about this issue every second and your health will deteriorate everyday, maybe this is why you have headache cause you think too much
just go to doctors regularly, stop worrying, sleep more and eat more, and again get active, exercise lots
good luck you'll be fine
An MRI should get to the root of the problem. Sadly doctors sometimes take ages to find a tricky problem because they always start with the obvious. This does sound like it is related to your pituitary gland and I hope it all gets resolved for you. I have a friend who has seen loads of specialists for a health problem that nobody can really get to the bottom of (she is seriously underweight, cannot gain weight, and they kept thinking she was anorexic!) But they have now found out what it is (a combination of things which made it hard to diagnose). Hang on in there! Good luck.
Omigosh, you poor dear... it sounds like some sort of neurological thing to me.

I will say some prayers for you sweetie.
