Abdominal Pain and other symptoms

[tedrodmich]

I am having severe abdominal pain throughout the entire abdomen along with muscle ache, weakness, numbness, tingling, severe headaches and left chest pain radiating down the left arm and left side of my neck.  I was given the green light on TIA's, MRI, MRA, CT Scans and all blood work.  They did find a small whole in my heart but I guess it's been there since birth.  They cannot find anything to show a hernia but I have had five hernia surgeries in the past, a small bowel obstruction repair, parathryoids removed, a mesh net put in place, a esophogeal repair.  I am tired of this pain and it's getting worse, sunlight is bothering me along with noise and am tired all the time.  Help!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes it does, but it seems to be stemming from the only one left not working.  The surgeon stated that it didn't look too healthy and she wasn't sure how long it would continue to work, but some of these symptoms are new to me.  When I had my parathyroid problems in the past, prior to them removing three, it was because they were mush and constantly secreting serum which caused an over abundance of calcium in my system, causing kidney stones, cramping, painful urination.  I wonder what is next for me as far as a treatment.

Hope this gets resolved for you.  Some of your current symptoms mirror parathyroid issues, no?....bothered by light, noise, tired.

Is it common after 2 major hernia repairs (which were over a year ago), to have a lot of gas, bloating, difficulty swallowing immediately after eating or drinking?  The surgeon said that it was normal but the last surgery was over a year ago and most I have talked with that has had this surgery do not have these issues.  One of my other surgeons has stated that since the last surgery I have contracted IBS and a spastic colon.  Why would this have occurred if the surgery was a success?
