HELP!!

[sandyross1988]

I've been having upper right back pain for three days. It hurts my chest on my left and right side. It also hurts my shoulder. I don't know what's going on, but I haven't been coughing, sneezing, or anything. Even my throat burns after what I eat. I literally drink water and gatorade to keep me hydrated. I don't know what's wrong, but I can barely lift my daughter and she's nine months.

Hey, Sissie. Its Sandy, aka Cassie. I haven't gone to the doc yet, since apparently the pain is only when I overuse it. I noticed something along with it. I noticed a small hard lump halfway above my belly button. I've had nausea after I eat and only milk helps. I feel like I am preggy again even though I had the tubal. When I had my LO, I had an epidural done. That was in august of last year. I'm scared cause I haven't run any fever and the hospital here wont do anything unles its an emergency. Also, I've been feeling lightheaded and tired. My hubby has to take care of my daughter or my friend who lives with me does. Idk wats going on. I JUST WANT RELIEF!!!!!

Hey. Im having the same pain still but worse today. I was wondering if I should go to the E.R. i'm in so much pain its unbelievable. Also, I know im not preggy cause I had a tubal ligation done. The pain is making my head hurt, my arm cramp, im starting to shake and im not cold. I dont have anything on my chest right now cause it hurts so much. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON???

As to the seizures I have no idea. I know about nerves because I have severe back/leg problems. If it is a nerve the only thing that will help is to get the nerve to where it is no longer pinched. If it get to where you have numbness or tingling in your arms/hands go immediately to the er and have a mri done as that is a sign of the nerves becoming damaged. You should try to get into your dr asap to see exactly what is causing the problems. Also try alternating hot and cold packs on your neck/shoulder area to see if that gives you any relief. Also what do you mean by drinking water and gatorade, are you vomiting have excessive urination or having diarrhea and worried about becoming dehydrated?  It is also possible that you are low on vitamins like potassium and magnesium. Best wishes, Sissie

You may possibly have a pinched nerve in your shoulder/neck area. There is picture of a nerve conduction chart on my profile that you may find helpful. You should really see a dr to make certain. It could be a easy fix by just getting a chiro or something even more serious that requires therapy or even surgery. I hope you find some relief soon. Best wishes, Sissie
