I'm searching for some answers to my back and neck pain that has been relatively consistent for the past 5-6 years. It has periods where it gets better or worse, but a typical day is that I ache all over my back. I have been dealing with this since I was 16 and am now 21. At the time it started, I was taking Accutane and had an incident on a roller coaster where I felt shooting pain up my spine. Since then, I have had two MRIs, a ton of x-rays, physical therapy, been to a chiropractor, massage therapist, multiple orthopedics, etc. Nothing has been found that may be causing my pain, so I'm wondering if it may be a muscle issue or something like fibromyalgia? I'm running out of options, as my first doctor suggested taking up to eight ibuprofen a day, and having done this for years, it's no longer working. Not to mention the effects on my stomach that I'm concerned about. My chiropractor and a former orthopedic both said I had a "swayback' and there was a slight curvature in my spine, but current MRIs and x-rays seem to conclude that I do not.I had a bad episode with the pain about two weeks ago where I couldn't function and ended up at urgent care. I had the pain from my neck to the bottom of my lower back and had tingling in my arms. Walking was difficult and I had to miss class and work due to the pain.The tingling and intense pain has since disappeared, but the aching persists. The orthopedic I went to prescribed a medrol dose pack and it was a few days after I started taking this that I was able to function normally (or normally for me anyways) again. I can't exercise except very, very carefully. Any kind of dance or running is a complete no go. I have difficulty sitting for long periods of time (long being anywhere from 30min-1 hr depending on the day). I'm constantly tired and am on Prozac for anxiety and depression. I've also noticed some short term memory difficulties that seem abnormal. I'm completely lost, but after some online research I'm beginning to wonder if they're somehow connected? I have an appt to see someone else as of now, but I'm searching for answers in the meantime. Maybe I can guide them in the right direction. I'm open to any and all new suggestions as I am getting desperate and am just miserable.
