Avatar f tn Pain under the left shoulder blade is usually a referred pain from abdomen like stomach ulcers, acidity, pancreatitis, or ectopic pregnancy (unlikely) or from the chest like in heart attack, pericarditis, pleuritis, pneumonia, pulmonary embolus, and aortic dissection. Another possibility is ankylosing spondylitis. Back pain worse when sitting or lying down and feels better with movement is usually caused by ankylosing spondylitis. This is a genetic condition.
Avatar n tn The most likely cause is costochondritis, which causes pain and tenderness at points where your ribs attach to your breastbone. The inflammation around the joint area gives sharp pain on taking a breath. This can also cause tenderness on pressing the area which pains. An orthopedic doctor can diagnose this for you. Generally there is no cause. However it can be due to infection, blow, injury, or fibromyalgia. It usually goes away on its own.

Avatar n tn t know how she got it. Ever since the pancreatitis she has been in pain just about every day (and missing quite a bit of school). It doesn't seem to make a difference as to the types of food she eats. She has tried going without milk for 4-5 days and without wheat for about a week. She was tested for food allergies also, which came back negative. The most pain she has is in her abdomen area, running horizontally from side to side and it is tender to press on.
Avatar n tn Mid-back could be related to gastritis/ peptic ulcer, pancreatitis, spinal issues, neuro-muscular causes, cardiovascular abnormalities etc. If you have history of gastritis, you could try taking OTC antacids and see if these seem to help. If these bring little relief I would suggest consulting a primary care physician or an internist for a primary evaluation. After a cause is identified it can be managed accordingly or specialist care may be sought. Hope this is helpful. Take care!

Avatar f tn In the absence of these findings its unlikely that you have chronic pancreatitis. The other causes for the pain could be infections of the bowel and bladder, prolapsed intervertebral disc or inflammatory diseases of the colon. So, if your symptoms persist discuss these options with your doctor. Regards.

Avatar f tn 1. Steroids, mumps, Epstein Barr Virus and Cytomegalovirus, Lupus and other immune diseases, very high calcium, lipids and triglycerides, drugs: sulfa drugs, steroids, NSAID use, diuretics, duodenal ulcer, diabetic drugs especially Byetta. The drugs could be a problem for both the pancrease and liver too. If you have been taking Byetta for diabetis it is very important to get treatment for that right away. I would say there is cause for concern but you are getting it checked out.

936335 tn?1246412231 I have pain in about ten minutes after I eat that causes severe pain. I keep a food journal to try to avoid different foods that causes the trigger. But the pain is so severe that is debilates me for the remainder of the day and causes severe back pain on the left side of my back near my spine. If I take whatever stomach medicine I am trying at the time, my enzymes to break the food down, and pain medicine then I can usually function pretty well without going into that severe pain.

Avatar f tn You more than likely have chronic pancreatitis. Every attack causes damage to your pancreas. Even though you quit drinking the damage has been done. You need to read up on chronic pancreatitis and get more of an understanding.
Avatar n tn There are many causes to the problems you are describing, and almost all of them do involve pain. These problems include: disk disease, or another musculoskeletal injury (sprain, strain, etc), Lyme Disease, (or other painful joint disease spread by ticks), colitis, pancreatitis, urinary tract infection, and many, many, more. Even something simple like impacted anal glands could cause shaking and inappetance.
Avatar n tn The first two weeks I was fine and feeling healthy. Two weeks later I started feeling a chest pain on left side, fatigue, no appetite and I am losing weight. I sometimes have stiff and heavy shoulders with neck pain. I sometimes feel like my neck muscles are pulled and gets tired. When I have the left side pain it makes the whole side down to the leg a bit numb. I consulted with my doctor, they did tests.
Avatar m tn Alternatively, your physician might be able to recommend other treatments, possibly including injections into the joint itself or surgery, that can improve your joint pain.
