Continuous burning!

[ploggin]

I haven't heard of anyone yet with this, but I have persistent daily burning of what feels like my digestive system, but also my throat, up to my ears, my eyes, and even in my head and neck.  Its quite vague and a bit hard to describe, and sometimes feels like a headache or ache in my neck at the back.  Also, one of my cheeks has been puffy for the past few months and I can feel that it is swollen a bit.  Also seems to feel like pain behind my eyes or above my ears or an ache in my throat at the back.

Has anyone else had this much burning and what did they come up with?  All blood tests were pretty much normal (potassium a bit high), and MRI of neck and CT of head were not remarkable.  Of course they have put me on antidepressants thinking it is anxiety, but they have not made it any better.

Thanks

This maybe sinus related, the puffy cheek & burning headache & Back of the head.  Prime symptoms of sinus
Is the nose burning also?  go to an ENT & get a cat scan  I only say this because I have suffered from sinus issues all my life and as wierd as it sounds sinuses triggers many different spots
Good Luck

Actually, that is what they initially thought. I tried many meds and had the surgery.  Didn't solve the symptoms.

Sounds to me like you may have acid reflux. Burning sensation in the chest and neck are symptoms I have had. If you find out that you do have acid reflux, your doctor will probable prescibe something like Nexium. I took that for a while and one day I went into a wholefood store and picked up stuff called Burn away(?) or something like that which is actually Orange Peel Extract. Took ten pills in 20 days and never looked back. I am cured after 2 years of presciption drugs.
