(Age 18-24) Pregnancy :: Extremely Tired And Breast Tenderness (7 Weeks)
Is anyone else 7 weeks pregnant? I'm 24 and this is my first pregnancy. I'm concerned because I haven't had any morning sickness. I have been extremely tired and have breast tenderness. I have already gone up a cup size and my lower tummy is already poking out a bit but it's firm not fat. I really don't have anyone to compare notes with :)
View 11 RepliesBackache :: Arm Tenderness, Abdominal Pain, Loss Of Appetite?
I been having pain on my ribs and under my ribs, specially under the ribs. It feels like a pulled muscle all over my right side body from my shoulder to the back of my leg. I have had a loss of appetite and usually get bloated and get a lot of gas after eating. Once my stomach started hurting so badly I had to lay in bed and my hands got all cold.
I am not sure what any of this could be but I am not able to see a doctor till september. Before this happened I had come from traveling. I went on a 2 day bike ride which left me very sore because of hours of riding in a very uncomfortable bike.
Uterine Fibroids :: Post Open Myomectomy - Tenderness Like Pain
I am in Australia (this website is fantastic by the way) and have just finished my first week of recovery after having an open myomectomy to remove a 15x11cm fibroid.
The fibroid was on the outside right hand side of my uterus.
I feel like I am recovering quite fast (have been able to get up and active during the day). However, I have a constant tenderness like pain on the inside on the right hand side. I have been sleeping on my sides at night because I can't stand lying on my back for too long! I feel like this may be irritating my insides though, do you think I could do permanent damage by lying on my side?
What are your experiences 1 week in post op?
Irritable Bowel Syndrome :: Intermittent Pain In Left And Right Side With Tenderness Under The Ribs
For about 6 weeks I've had stomach irritation, intermittent pain in left and right side with tenderness under the ribs, headaches, lower and upper abdomen pain, bloating, belching, an intermittent sharp pain like an electric shock at the top and just to the right of my abdomen, and most recently floating stools.
To be honest the pain isn't unbearable, just irritating, very uncomfortable and persistent which is getting me down. I wake every day with the same series of pains and bothersome bloating and burning. I've been on omeprazole for about four weeks which doesn't seem to have sorted it.

View 2 RepliesCan You Have Fibromyalgia Without Pain?
I have been ill for around 4 years, mainly with persistent fatigue, episodes of intense sleepiness and episodes of lightheadedness on exertion. I have had probably hundreds of blood tests that have ruled out everything from thyroid to diabetes to iron etc etc. I have also had sleep apnea ruled out. I went to a rheumatologist yesterday as I have coeliac disease (which is under control) and wanted to rule out the possibility of other autoimmune conditions. Anyway the rheumatologist prescribed me vitamin D tablets as I am vitamin D deficient but he said if that didn't improve things his next option would be fibromyalgia. However (and I told him this) I don't have any pain! None! I was under the impression you can't have fibromyalgia without pain? I have already been to see an ME/CFS specialist and chronic fatigue syndrome was ruled out as I don't have enough other symptoms, ie I have fatigue but no memory/concentration problems, I don't have periods of feeling worse after periods of activity etc.
Am I right in thinking that I don't have fibromyalgia?

View 1 RepliesBreast Pain And Getting Cramps
I'm a young teen. I recently been having a problem with my period. Which I never had before. I never get cramps or bloated. I am a few days late of this month. Earlier this month, I had sexual inter course for the first time. My partner did not go inside all the way. He pulled out before he ejaculated. So no sperm entered my uterus. From the beginning of when we started and when we ended, was from 3 to 5 minutes. It happened very quickly. Why is he reason why I am haven't had my period? Why do my breast start to hurt and I'm suddenly getting cramps, yet I have never gotten them before?

Fibromyalgia? Back Pain Every Day Along With Fatigue And Depression
Nine months ago I was in active mother of two with very little pain until one day one of my toddlers jumped on my back while playing around in the floor. Since then I have been back pain every day along with fatigue and depression. I have been to a few different primary care doctors, physical therapy for three months and I've tried a slew of muscle relaxers and medication for my middle back pain. I have had an x-ray and an MRI that shows my back is perfectly normal and healthy. I am beyond frustrated about what is causing this pain! I also have slight digestive issues even though I eat fairly healthy, heavy menstrual cycles and recently sharp nerve pain in my right ankle. I used to be pain free and healthy and now I feel like a hypochondriac with no answers to why! Does this sound like fibromyalgia to anyone? I'm at the point where I'm just reaching out for help to find a reason for my pain. My back pain is the worst of all of the symptoms but it seems to get better (still pain but not as bad) for a week and then get worse again for no apparent reason. Help! Am I going crazy!? I don't want to have fibromyalgia but my doctors cannot find anything physically wrong with me!
View 2 RepliesChronic Pain :: Fibromyalgia Or Vitamin D Deficiency? Or Both?
Okay so I'm feeling really down at the moment due to chronic pain. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia three years ago but can't tolerate all the medications such as gabapentin, pregabalin and amitriptyline so I'm basically just taking solpadol 30/500s and tramadol 50 mg if it gets really bad. I've now been diagnosed with severe vitamin D deficiency and all they would tell me it was below 20 so I've been started on 60000 units of cholecalciferol per week. I'm now getting sharp pains in my feet which I can only describe as a cross between a bee sting and an electric shock in my heels and feet, and a constant ache of calf muscles and bad bone pain to my shins. Everything is getting me down
View 4 RepliesFibromyalgia :: Disappointed With Pain Management And Exercise
So I was finally able to get in to see a PM doctor and she looked over all of the info that had been sent to her and then decided she wanted x-rays of my hips (where I have the most pain) and spine. She told me that she really doesn't do medications (which is fine) but that injections of some sort might help me and she would wait for the results to make any decisions. It took almost 3 weeks for me to get the results back and then the nurse told me that my x-rays looked ok but that the doc said I could get an MRI if I wanted to. I told her that I really can't afford another MRI (had one of my brain) right now and would rather not have one unless the doc really thought I should. She again told me the doc said I could have one if I wanted and that was it. Never offered another appointment or anything.
My rheumatologist who until my last appointment I really liked is frustrating me too. I told her I hated the gabapentin and would prefer not to take it anymore. She said that's fine the best thing that I can do for myself is to eat healthy, exercise, and get good sleep (impossible with 3 babies! but I try) And I have a very healthy diet and have added exercise as much as I can tolerate. She told me that medication is really for people who can't live a normal life because of their fibro.
Did she not listen to me? Is it "normal" to come home from the grocery store in tears? Is it "normal" to spend a week recuperating from a trip to Coney Island or a family BBQ? Is it "normal" to take 2 hours for your body to work in the mornings?
Gabapentin :: For Fibromyalgia / Neuropathic Pain - Bad Reaction
I was prescribed Gabapentin for fibromyalgia like pain - neuropathic pain. About 90 mins after taking one 300mg capsule I was experiencing some strong side effects. My spatial sense was distorted - I seemed bigger or smaller than I usually experience myself. I kept hearing indistinct voices - whole sentences in voices I did not recognise. I felt intense nausea. At one point I caught sight of my face in a mirror and had the feeling that the image was somehow independent of me, and that the face there was malevolent, and I was unable to break away for several minutes despite quite strong fear. I went to bed and as I lay there I felt like I was not quite in my body - lying beside myself somehow. My mind was caught up for a while in a series of incredibly violent and distressing daydream-like images over which I seemed to have little control. My body twitched and convulsed irregularly - although I've experienced this with intense anxiety and at this point I was really quite afraid! I woke early after a fitful sleep with an intense headache - behind the forehead, temples and also pain in my neck. Also some nausea. The headache lasted all day and into the night. It felt on a par with a moderately bad migraine (maybe 7 out of 10). I was unable to do much of anything except lie down and wait for it to pass (pain killers had no discernible effect on the level of pain).
That was one pill of 300mg. And needless to say I won't be taking another, let alone the prescribed 3 a day!

After reading some of the posts lately, I started thinking about what diversion tactics I use to block out the pain. It got me wondering what tactics you all use.
Apart from getting on with life as best I can, I do a few things to take my mind off it all. Doing simple crosswords, I don't have the
or patience for cryptic. Watching TV programs like Antique
Roadshow and watching movies. Reading novels, and going online to read articles.

I check my breast regularly and can't feel any lumps or any other changes in my breasts, the pain is mostly in the left one. I also get painful joints since starting perimenopause. I went to see my family doctor and he checked my breast and tells me there's nothing to worry about. I ask him if I needed a mammogram he said no...I don't know if I should get a second opinion? No one in my family has ever had breast cancer.
