Hi. I am 26 years old, female. I have been struggling with this for nearly four years. I experience my symptoms every day, sometimes intensely enough to be severely debilitating and distressing. I usually go though a few days where they are most intense every 10 days or so. I am otherwise healthy. I feel pressure building up in different parts of my body -- my head, neck, back, stomach, face, limbs, all over, at various times. The pressure builds up and makes a cracking sound when it releases, like cracking your knuckles. It is often painful, or at least uncomfortable, and sometimes lasts for hours. It doesn't respond well to over the counter pain medications. Sometimes I tap rapidly where the pressure is building up because it seems to make it release faster. But it's not a relief, because there is always more. It seems to move throughout my body with ease. The cracking sounds are sharper when the pressure is close to the bone and more like squishing sounds when close to soft tissue. My symptoms are more or less constant. When I feel them in my nose it sometimes makes me sneeze, in my mouth and throat they are sometimes accompanied by a bad smell. Sometimes the pressure is accompanied by feeling too hot or cold, or by tingling sensations. The pressure causes my body to tense up and is debilitating. I have been to many doctors, none who have diagnosed me. I tested negative for Rheumatoid arthritis and my hormone levels are fine. I currently want to look into acupuncture, because I did once session and at least felt at ease during the session. My symptoms have seriously impacted my life since I've had them and any help would be greatly appreciated.
