If you haven't tried going to a naturopathic/holistic doctor, that might help. If you've already been to that sort of physician, you might want to get a second opinion. It sounds like you've already covered the basics like getting your vitamin D levels and vitamin B levels checked. You might be one doctor visit away from a permanent solution to a temporary problem. When I found my current physician, I learned how mediocre my previous doctors were. It wasn't that hard for me to find a quality physician. The problem was that, not being a medical expert myself, I simply had no idea that my previous doctors were so deficient.

"It wasn't that hard for me to find a quality physician."

Any tips? I keep swinging and missing.

It sounds like you've exhausted things like recommendations from people you know in real life and on social media. There are a ton of Facebook groups for any and all medical situations. People in a suitable FB group might be able to provide you with all sorts of advice. If you live in a densely populated area, that can make it harder to find a good doctor. In areas with less population density, the pace of life is slower, and there's less competition for resources (and health care is a resource). If you live in the USA, you can browse the link below where you can set the location and the types of expertise you want. I hope you quickly find a doctor who can solve your problem. In the past, I've had my own medical struggles, and on multiple occasions I've been astounded by what finally solved a seemingly intractable medical condition.
