Mystery illnesses refer to medical conditions that are difficult to diagnose due to unclear symptoms or lack of identifiable causes. Patients often experience a range of symptoms that do not fit into known diseases, leading to frustration and prolonged medical investigations. These illnesses can affect anyone and may involve various systems in the body, such as the nervous system, digestive system, or immune system. Healthcare professionals may use a combination of tests and patient history to try to uncover the underlying issue, but sometimes the cause remains elusive, leaving patients without clear treatment options.
