I'm sick and the Dr's are clueless

It could be mold in the walls. Please, DO NOT disregard this. If you live in an area with bugs, rain, and running water it could easily be mold. You breathe in the spores and they make you very sick!! I had this happen to a friend and he was on his death bed before they finally ripped down his walls and found it. I logged in today JUST for you, so please have an expert inspect your house. OR even a friend with a mold allergy (like me). You could save thousands in medical bills.

Also, it could be a hernia, get a second opinion.

When I was having problems with my ex wife 20 years ago, I had similar symptoms in the same spot. It was very painful. I thought it was a peptic ulcer. They did a lower GI, and found nothing. I dont know what is causing your pain. I just wanted to throw that out there.

Is the pain always in the same place? If so that would seem to indicate some issue they could locate. It it moves, then it could be diet related. I had issues some years back, that were driving me crazy. GI problems, with serious vomiting, and it seemed to come and go for no discernable reason. I went in to get it checked, and they looked at various possibilities, thinking gall bladder, but everything was normal. I started listing, in detail, everything I ate. Turns out, my system can't handle that flash frozen chicken, that you can buy in bags. I am talking the stuff that is in a big bag, frozen individually then packed all together. Something about the processing just tears me up. Regular chicken, no problem. That stuff, and I am seriously sick! Monitoring that is worth a shot, at least. If you can pin down a common element, you might get some relief.

Mold isn't the issue, or at least it shouldn't be my wife and I had to move out of our house over a year ago due to black mold, long story short and after having the mold removed and the house thoroughly cleaned and re checked my house is in the normal range for ok mold and no more black mold

Yes it is very localized the same spot all day every day for over 2 months now

What I would recommend being check in further detail. As well as muscle tearing specially if having done any lifting or straining.


Also as mentioned in a prior reply, Ayurveda and eating for your Doshas.

Where on this chart is the closest to your pain spot?



Have they done any of the following?
Xray
MRI
CT Scan

Also see www.oustormcrowd.com...

Does it hurt more when you push on the spot? What about when you release pressure?

The pain is localized just above my right hip about 2 inches or so, there is no change in the pain with applied pressure or relief of said pressure. The need for a bm does not add or subtract from the pain nor does having a bm add or subtract.

As I stated before the test have included
Blood work
CT scan with and without contrast
Xray
Sonogram
Colonoscopy
Numerous physical exams
And xray with contrast

What I really need is fictional Dr Gregory House to tell me it's not Lupus pump me full of drugs that almost kill me then figure it out as the shows about to end so I can have a miracle recovery just before the end credits. Lol

Could it be an adhesion?

did they check for that?

Every hospital has a Dr. House. The problem is, Dr. House is usually wrong. He just keeps guessing and putting you through potentially deadly procedures until he gets it right, or you die. They don't show the episode where the people die. (Just joking for those that don't get my humor.)

This is a little out there but still in the range of possibilities; a Lipoma.

This little fellow can be a bit tricky as it can go missed because they are not looking for it. It can be painless or painful. Size and location can change the level of pain. Also while it is usually benign, it can on occasion be malignant.

Just throwing out possibilities that I am familiar with.

I am really leaning toward appendix.....You could try Raw organic apple cider vinegar ....2 tablespoons in 4 oz of water...

Has to contain a filament called the "Mother"...drinking this daily will reset the norma flora in your GI....

I would seek a second opinion with a GI specialists and start over! If you spleen is enlarged that is indicative of a immune type disease....such as Epstein Barr virus, Mono, Lyme, several....you need more testing....

someone suggested hernia and that is a good possibility. as frustrating as it is do not give up! You know your own body and something is going on.!

You are correct. I have seen cases where the diagnostics reported a healthy appendix, when on surgical intervention it was found to be diseased.

We forget that 99% accurate leaves with a 1% that will be inaccurate. It is that tricky 1% that catches some of us of guard. 1% of the population, leaves way for a lot of possible errors.

a reply to: crimsongod21

Do you have any other symptoms of Lupus or were you just using this as an example? I would recommend writing down every symptom you have, whether they seem related or not. It may help point you in the right direction. I am just now discovering what my "mystery illness" is after almost 40 years of knowing something was terribly wrong, but repeatedly being told everything looks fine on testing. Turns out, I was right.

I had a long list of crazy symptoms that seemed unrelated. Super flexible, an extra rib, low blood pressure, continuous abdominal pain, joint pain, tired, migraines, rashes, near fainting, family history of aneurysms ect. The list could go on and on. I finally went to the right doctor who knew right off that it was Ehlers Danlos syndrome and I am now waiting for genetic confirmation. I am finally being seen by the right docs that are treating a lot of the illnesses that are commonly found in conjunction with EDS and I am gaining my life back more and more every day.

Don't give up. You know your body and if your abdominal pain continues then don't be afraid to be your own advocate and speak up if you aren't getting any answers. Sometimes they aren't looking in the right places and our problems don't fall within the usual testing. Good luck and keep us posted!

I assume you are not familiar with the tv show house, lol according to dr house on the tv show it is never lupus, though in reality my grandmother did die from lupus so it theoretically possible

a reply to: OkieDokie

Wow! you have reminded me that there are so many diseases that are so uncommon that they are never mentioned, and are never looked for during your standard diagnostic studies.

I should know better because I am a big supporter and a proud member of the 1% Club. I keep having to remind others that just because it is outside of the 99% chance of probability, it does not mean it is not possible.

I agree that one should never give up. Borrowing a phrase from another TV show, though old, "The truth is out there."
