Is there a medical condition that systematically mimics other medical complaints?

Question:

Had loads of medical problems with physical symptoms all requiring me to see hospital specialists i.e. skin splitting on hands and feet (2 episodes both times lasting about 3 years) had allergy tests and only the sticking plaster with the patches on caused a reaction! A whole range of gynae probs (no periods, heavy periods, continuous bleeding, secondary infertility, miscarriage, an ovarian cyst showing on a scan but it had disappeared by the time treatment was arranged) , abnormal smear tests, hair thinning, underactive thyroid blood test was positive but then follow up test normal, sciatica which has left the back and side of left calf and 3 toes on left foot numb, also have 2 fingers on left hand numb, rheumatic pains in limbs to name a few.

As soon as one complaint clears up, usually without invasive treatment, something else starts. This has been going on for almost 30 years (i'm 41)
Does anyone know if these symptoms could be caused by a single medical condition?

Answers:
I think you need to change your family doctor and keep a diary, as you'll be able to sell it when you do get a proper diagnosis.
