Vestibulodynia

My health seems to have slowly gone down hill since about 5 years ago. I am a 28 year old female. My symptoms are the following:

1.Vestibulodynia -for 5 years
2.heart pvc's-3 years
3.dairy allergy-don't know how long I've had this
4.tested positive for h. pylori bacteria and gastritis via endoscopy 9 months ago
5. Various muscle twitches-2 years
6. Extremely painful periods, very clotted and heavy-for 16 years
7. Anxiety at first over fire, then car accidents, now anxiety over poor health/death-started really becoming a problem about 6 years ago.
8. Constipation-several years

All of this symptoms seem to come in cycles and I rarely have them all at the same time. About once a year I have about one month where I feel wonderful, on top of the world and then all the symptoms slowly start cycling again.

My primary concerns are the vestibulodynia, the anxiety and the painful periods. Does anyone have a suggestion for the proper remedy?? Many many many thanks!!
