pain in my neck and back shooting down my arms. pain in the stomach spots on my body

[rcarley79]

hi, i have been getting pain at the bottom of my ribs which is very painful. I am also experiencing constant neck pain which i have had an mri for. it showed damage but nothing major. also, severe back pain and shooting down my arms and legs. It goes into my hands and makes them very painful. I dont drink very often but if i have half a lager i get really bad pain in my arms and legs.
I had terrible sciatica a few yrs ago where i couldnt drive for 6wks and couldnt even get out of bed myself. I couldnt do much at all. it was worse than child birth.
I have also had an inflammed gallbladder in the past which went away after i had taken antibiotics.
I also have tiny red spots all over my body, not many but i dont know what they are?
does anyone else experience my symptoms?
thanks

I had an inflamed gall bladder and it was removed but it didn't fix my health problems. My health issues consisted of rib pain, muscle pain, neck pain, arm pain, hand pain, feet pain, lower back pain, leg pain, fatigue, headaches, migraines, eye pain, numbness on my face, memory issues, restless leg syndrome, insomnia, feeling wired and tired, digestive issues, problems with the liver, abdominal pain and many more. I also had other issues like inflammation of the eyes causing dry eyes and I would get frequent bladder infections along with frequent vaginal infections. I believe these infections is because of inflammation in the body. I was told by a rhematologist after my gall bladder surgery that I had fibromyalgia and would likely develop rheumatoid arthritis. He couldn't explain all of my symptoms so I went searching for answers. To make a long story short I got tested for lyme disease by a lyme literate doctor and it came back positive. I was tested for lyme at least four times prior to the positive test and they always came back as showing some markers for lyme but not enough to be considered positive. I was getting sicker by the day and this health issue has also stricken my husband and son. Doctor could never tell us what was going on and what we had. My son has chronic fatigue and my husband is prediabetic along with having IBS all caused by lyme disease. There are many infections you can get with a tick bite or with out. One very bad infection is called Bartonella. It is what caused my digestion problems, muscle and body pain, sleep issues and more. This is something you should look into before it gets any worse. I do not have rheumatoid arthritis or fibromyalgia anymore. The antibiotics I take for the Bartonella infection are helping them to go away. After we treat the bartonella infection we will move onto the next infection which is called babesia. The last infection we have to fight is borrellia. Don't let a rheumatologist label you with an autoimmune disease. It is likely you have lyme disease or some other infection. Testing is very poor for all of these infections and you need to see a doctor who specializes in them to get proper treatment. My family never had a bullseye rash but we do suffer with rashes from time to time. The red spots you have on your body are classic bartonella. You should look into this and not waste your time going from doctor after doctor and getting different diagnosis's.  Lyme disease along with the other infections can cause all of your health problems. You can get bartonella in a few different ways. One is from a tick, fleas, cats and a few others. I hope you look into this. Good Luck.

I have not and am not experiencing any of those symptoms but maybe I can help. You say right below you ribs hurts. sometimes that could be your gallbladder. I had gallbladder disease. What you need to figure out is if that pain is starting at the right side and then moving over to the left and covering the bottom of your rib cage. Also the red bumps on your body could be several different things such as your body has an infection and that is why you are getting those bumps. Which would make sense with all the pain you are feeling you immunities can go down if you are under so much pain. And the back pain and arm pain could be linked to you neck damage, You need to speak with you doctor about all these symptoms and tell him or her that you want something done about all of it. Good luck

Before I say what "could be". You should see a Dr.
You mention pain bottom of your ribs; Is it mostly on the right?..red spots, history of gallbladder and sciatica. alcohol triggering swelling causing pressure/pain in your spine to your arms and hands... have you had blood work for your liver. Good luck, get checked out..:)
