Strange Symptoms

[podapimpz]

I have some very strange symptoms going on for 6 months.  Basically, it feels like there is this extreme tightness around my abdomen.  My ribs, spine, and chest often feel bruised and very sore.  The weird part is my nose is all messed up, like it's being blocked off or flooded with some type of horrible sickness, but I don't have any infections or colds.  The weirdest part is the breathing problem seems to change with position.  For example, when sitting, I often feel like a giant object is just sitting on the right side of my abdomen, kind of like the stuff inside has shifted or moved higher in my body.  Depending on the position I am in, my nose will get more blocked or less blocked.  It's like someone is squeezing something in my abdomen, but instead my nose (and throat actually) feel the symptoms.  Another example is after using the bathroom, it seems like just the shifting on my abdomen makes my nose become unblocked.

I don't get what could be happening, but it's like horrific fumes are coming in my nose, not just being blocked off.  I feel like I'm breathing in water all day or something.  I keep trying to clear my nose, but it actually is clear, but it feels like I am smothered with some type of horrible liquid or fumes.  I don't get the connection to my abdomen.  Other things are after I eat, my ribs and lower back often burn and feel bruised.  Seems worse when I have pressure against my back.

Has anyone had any symptoms like this?

Have you been tested for worms?  One can have them and not pass them in their stool, thread worms especially so.

Thanks, guys.  I don't know, but the symptoms are bad all day.  The problem is, my whole abdomen feels tight now, and often burns a lot in both the front and my mid and lower back.  However, it seems more positional rather than to do with eating.  But, eating does seem to mess it up.  As far as my nose, it feels like I'm fighting against a heavy resistance.  My nose isn't stuffy, but it's like the tightness in my abdomen is causing my nose to tighten too.  Sometimes, when I use the bathroom, for example, my nose untightens temporarily.  The problem is all these symptoms don't seem to add up to one thing, but something is very wrong here.  I can tell things are really tight because when I try to take deep breaths, I am fighting my abdomen and chest it feels like.  I often hear pops in my chest and abdomen when trying to take a deep breath.  Sometimes, I notice these weird things in my lower back or abdomen where I can see it jumping around like something is moving beneath it.  It's like a muscle jumping or something.

Hey podapimpz.
Conventional medical appoach, dx and treatment possibly will not get you
back to physical harmony and balance.
This an Energy Medicine issue.
Your stomach meridian is imbalanced. There are underlying  unresolved emotions.Perhaps you are conflicted and have lack of clarity with some important issues.
My suggestion is to seek a Chakra Energy Practitioner to open and rebalance your Chakras. Specially your Solar Plexus and your Third Eye.
Meditation and Hypnotherapy will also benefit you.
Take care.

Sometimes stomach problms like infections (H.Pylori) can cause pain and ulcers.  I have this and you have to get a blood test for it, then take antibiotics and antacids.  Is the pain constant?  Does it occur after meals?  Also nerve damage to the spine can cause tightness around the chest.  But, the previous post seems to be right.  A hiatal hernia causes these symptoms.  Because part of the stomach slips upward into the chest through the diaphram.  It can be a sliding hernia and move back into place. A relative had this and had to eat small meals.  Nothing with spices.  The nose problems might be sinus?

I'm thinking a hietal hernia could cause the feeling that something is sitting on your abdomen, pressing up against your ribs.  But I'm not sure about the nose connection to the hernia.  Do you have acic refluxz?

Hi, Dr.  I had the RAST test.  It came back negative for everything.  The skin tests I had too.  It showed allergy to wheat grass and dust mites.  

[Dr. Kokil Mathur]

Hi! You could be having an allergic reaction to something causing a chronic obstructive lung disease type of symptoms. Common allergens are pollen, mold, dust, pet dander, food, cosmetics (like powders, shampoos, soaps), smoke, pollution, dust storms or drugs. Please think this over—a damp wall or an old AC, pets at home, immediate neighborhood or school or some food. You must get an allergy test done, either a skin test or RAST, to know what you all are allergic to.
Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Take care
