Avatar n tn I have had pain in my upper left abdomen for almost 2 months. I had a 3 1/2" cyst on my kidney and they drained it thinking it was the problem. I am still experiencing the same pain. It is isolated and about the size of a silver dollar and felt right beneath my rib and I can also feel it in my back. The urologist said if it wasn't the cyst it must be gastro and did not ask to see me again. The cat scan shows no diverticulitis, and no abnormalties other than the cyst.
Avatar m tn Hello, For the last year or so, I've had an odd pain and tingling sensation in my upper left abdomen, immediately below the ribs. This isn't constant, but when it occurs, it usually lasts for a week or two. When it's there, there is definite tenderness when I poke the area, and the pain is a sharp pain, maybe a 3 out of 10 on the pain scale. I haven't been able to link any other circumstances (menstrual cycle, eating habits, etc) to this pain.
Avatar n tn One month terrible lower back pain, other days stabbing pains in my legs and arms. Right now, for the past month or so I have terrible upper back pain. Is this Fibromyalgia again?

Avatar f tn Hi. I'm a 21 y/o female, & I had a ruptured appendix in November. I had a laparoscopic appendectomy on Nov. 16. I spent a week in the hospital because I was so sick & was diagnosed with peritonitis. Since my appendectomy, I have been nauseous after I eat. I have had intermittent upper & lower abdomen pain, but most recently, it's been upper. I last saw my surgeon in January who said if I didn't feel better, they could do a CT scan.
Avatar n tn I have been having sharp pains in my upper abdomen, and I feel hungry a lot. But after I eat it hurts worse and takes an hour for it to calm down. I don't usually have a big appetite (I weigh 100 pounds and I'm 14, I know I'm underweight) and I have a fat metabolism. Do I need to eat better foods? Please help, I've been close to tears because of this pain.
Avatar n tn I am a 36 y/o female. The skin on my arms, abdomen, and especially upper legs feel bruised to touch. Pain is not severe. It does not burn or sting and there is no rash or bruise anywhere. But skin is definitely sore when you even lightly rub over it. Have not found any answers or ideas to what could cause it. Has started in the last week and it comes and goes.
Avatar f tn ve had evry test and scan known to man...including ct scans of abdomen, octreotide scan, mri of abdomen and brain, upper endoscopy and countless blood tests. Everything was within normal limits except for a benign hemangioma on my liver. I am scheduled for a colonoscopy on Nov. 18....doctor believes it may show nothing. He has even gone so far as to suggest this may all be due to stress and /or depression! I've lost 14 lbs. since April and cannot gain a pound!
Avatar m tn First off, I was diagnosed with Barrett's about a year ago. It was in the very first stages and my GI wasn't too worried about it. I just have to get yearly endoscopy's to check up on it, which one is coming up. Now, for the past month, I've been having pain in my upper left abdomen that has been getting progressively worse. The pain has now spread to my back and other parts of my abdomen and into my chest. It is so bad now that it keeps me up at night.
Avatar m tn As a bit of a history on me; 38, male. Diagnosed with fibromyalgia around 21. Have GERD and IBS. Have dealt with neck problems for a number of years. Occasional bladder issues. Family history of ehlers danlos, lupus, adrenal tumors, blood clots, stroke, POTS, vasal vagal syncope, and colon cancer. Until last February I was very physically active, running 30+ miles a week and doing plenty of other activities.
Avatar f tn In this multiple areas of tenderness are found that reproduce the described pain. The upper costal cartilages at the costochondral or costosternal junctions are most frequently involved .The areas of tenderness are not accompanied by heat, erythema, or localized swelling.
Avatar m tn To be honest, I have not heard of them, I just did a google search and I could not find anything on them. Sorry.
Avatar m tn I went to the doctor and they did this biopsy on a blister kind of looking thing that was always oozing pus and blood on my abdomen and they said it was fibromyalgia polyps. What is fibromyalgia polyps?
Avatar f tn Dear Dr.... Hello again...I've been doing some more reasearch..I've been trying like crazy to come to some conclusion as to why I have been suffering with the chronic muscle pain in my neck and at the base of my skull and upper back. I've had joint swelling and stiffness.
Avatar f tn I have had my gall bladder removed, part of my small bowel removed (due to endometriosis), mesh put in my abdomen from a hernia and a hysterectomy. My last surgery was approx 3 years ago. Since then, I have had loose yellow bowel movements, chronic pain in my abdomen, shoulders, knees, feet and hands. Cymbalta helped but caused constipation. With that being said and the research I have done, my question is: Is it possible that I have fibromyalgia?
Avatar f tn So I'm 15 weeks and two days pregnant, and I have sharp pain in my upper abdomen, should I be worried or no? I called the on call nurse at my doctors but I'm still not sure if I should be worried or not.
Avatar f tn I will be 12 weeks tomorrow and all day i have felt a stretching in my upper abdomen. Its not painful but its pretty constant. Any idea what's going on here?? Thanks!
Avatar n tn I have had severe cramping in my upper abdomen. My abdomen involuntarily draws up. I had been diagnosed with IBS over 18 years and I thought this was a flare up. On occasion I get relief from eating. My PCP indicated that it may be a duodenal ulcer. I initially noticed this occurrence after running. I was relaxed and standing in front of the mirror when my stomach just drew up. Any thoughts?
