Constant Pain Posted: 01-17-05 19:17pm
I'm new to the forum so not sure exactly
how this works. Here's my story. Pain
in upper abdominal daily for 4 + years,
back pain that has worsened in the past
year - can be anywhere in the spine from
neck to lower back. I have mild arthritis
in my neck, otherwise mri doesn't show
anything. My back feels tight and
jammed. My stomach gets worse when I eat
but hurts even if I don't eat. Lying
down with heating pad helps. I've had my
gallbladder removed, ecrp for sphincter of
oddi dysfunction and exploritory surgery,
all to no avail. I went to john hopkins
for over a year, had several endoscopies,
colonoscopies, mri, ct scans, ultrasound,
upper and lower gi, hida scan and many,
many others. Had trigger point and facet
joint injections and taken an incredible
amount of medicine. I take oxycontin and
vicadin daily. I have no idea what else
to do. Help! Any ideas?

a Thought Posted: 01-26-05 14:56pm
I would not normally think of emailing
anyone with what i'm about to say but
after reading your post I was genuinely
aghast at how many treatments and
operations you ad tried and received!
This truly deserves an exclamation mark as
to still, after all that searching, to not
really know the true cause.? Well,
flabberghasted is theonly word I need.
I then had a thought pop in my head, 'has
she tried a regression?' and then I
thought why would she think of trying
that? For what reason could she or anyone
think that going back through time would
help? Regression is about being
hypnotised and 'regressed' back through
your life/lives to find healing. This can
be physical, emotional, spiritual, mental
etc. I had an image of something that
might have happened to you in a previous
life and it fit your symptoms well. I am
not qualified to say anymore and I urge
you to look at websites that explain and
give testimonials about regression.
Thanks you for listening, if you think
this a load of old monkey doo that's okay
too. I had to tell you anyway.
Regards

as this is the pregnancy forum... I don't
think you will get a lot of answers you
are looking for. Good luck though..

Dear charleymom
it sounds like your really suffering, all
my best that they'll soon find a treatment
that helps you. When did your symptoms
start i.E. After a pregnancy or due to a
job where you could have had "repetitive
movement" injuries ?
Your symptoms sound a bit like my
husband's symptoms....Stomach aches, back
problems, arteritis in joints,
headaches...He's a bit overweight, doesn't
exercise nor eat balanced and has an it
job....
He's done mri scans, bloodtests, endoscopy
and a lot more and now has regular
physiotherapy
some of his symptoms were also linked to
that fact that his dad died a year ago and
he didn't deal with it very well...
