I think i might have chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia. how can i tell the difference?
So far, the doctors have not been able to diagnose anything and have basically been putting me on random medications just to relieve the symptoms. Symptoms I have:
Fatigue (sleeping thirteen hours +) exhaustion
pain in my knees, ankles, and weirdly my elbows. Headaches, congestion.
I’ve been really nauseous occasionally and ended up having to go to the ER because of it.

Oh Boy, Fibromyalsia is really tough to diagnose, but my guess would be at your age it isn't that. Sounds more like Rheumatoid Arthritis, to me. Your other symptoms DO coincide with either disease. Except for the nausea, and that is probably from your meds. Your body is young for all or those and they are very bad for you.
I too have had a slew of blood tests going as far back as when I was 17(I'm 42 now) and nothing ever showed up in those tests until about 3yrs ago. Have your parents ask for extensive X-Rays, and a MRI. That is one true way to show the deterioration of your cartilage.
