Okay, this is going to be long and I could only pick one topic so I picked the symptom that's at the head of the line. I've been either in pain or sick since Oct. 22 of 08. Nearly every day since then, I've either had pain or constant horrible pressure in my head and neck. The pain normally starts at one point, either on the left or right side, and then eventually spreads to sit behind my eyes, temples, and at the base of my skull. The pain spreads down my neck to my right shoulder and arm, which just makes it all worse. I also get either light-headed or dizzy. Now, a few years ago I "supposedly" injured my shoulder/arm. I was having horrible chest pains that would radiate down my right arm, into the right side of my ribcage, through my shoulder to my back, and up my neck. The ER doctor told me I'd stretched all of those muscles and that's where the pain was coming from. He sent me to a specialist, whom did not question the diagnoses; simply look at the X-Rays taken of my shoulder/chest and sent me to Physical Therapy. Now, years later I still suffer with the same pain, though it has not been this debilitating since then. Apart from that pain, I've had nausea, my eyes are sensitive to light and motion, most of the time I can push through the noise until it's just all too much and I'm near tears. I've also had what feels like swelling in my throat and at the top of my mouth at the back that makes it hard for me to swallow. My MB have been irregular... sometimes solid, sometimes watery, sometimes constipated. Hot and cold flashes, but no fever. Burning sensations of the eyes, nose, lips, and throat plus an almost regular cough - though I don't mean that I'm coughing constantly all day. I'm restless and haven't slept well in months. My attention span and concentration has gone from fairly normal to almost none at all and at this point, I think I may even be starting to get a little depressed because it's been so long. I also suffer from the occasional flutter in my chest… like my heart stops for a second, then starts again or I get a flutter that rolls right up into the base of my throat. I've gone to a doctor and I've told him all of these symptoms. He diagnosed me with migraines and placed me on Propranolol and Midrin. The two together had a bad effect on me, so now I'm simply taking the Midrin... but I was having to take like two or three a day and the headaches still weren't going away. The Midrin only sort of blanketed the pain for a while until it wore off and the headaches came right back. I noted that some of my pain and pressure might be sinus congestion and the Doctor then put me on MucinexD along with the Midrin. The MucinexD helped a lot and I haven't had to take the Midrin at all, only a few Tylenol. The worst of the pain and pressure in my head is gone, but I can still feel it there... like a dull hum. And of course now I have all this goo draining down my throat. The rest of my symptoms are still here though and I'm ready to pull my hair out. This morning I woke up nauseous and was having trouble breathing. I'm achy everywhere and just down right annoyed. I'm ready to scream, but I just don't have the energy for it. Anyone have any ideas for me at all?? Because my doctor still thinks it's sinus/migraine headaches. A little about me and some history... I'm about a hundred pounds over weight, I get next to no exercise because I shattered my ankle a year ago, now have five screws and a pin, plus I have a bad knee and I'm just generally in a lot of pain if I do too much. I probably don't eat right because money is just non-existent right now and I'm lucky to eat at all. My family has a history of diabetes and my mother not only had Mitral Valve Prolaps, but Thyroid problems and IBS (Irritable Bowel) We both had yucky stomachs and I've had my gallbladder taken out as did she. I'm 29, 30 in February and I'm just... I need some doors here because I feel like all of mine have been shut. Any suggestions or help would be muchly appreciated.
