Q: Pain in back and lower ribs after fainting
asked by: bhawna on October 23rd, 2009

Hello

I suffered from a fainting last week in my office, where while fainting my jaw went to one side, i did three rotations and fell unconcious. After I was taken by my collegues to medical room I regained consiousness and felt severe pain in back and in chest/ribs area. So I was taken to hospital and given pain killer injection after which I vomited twice. So doctors suspected it to be a case of food poisoining and started treatment for that. But after all the tests(ECG, Ultrasound of stomuch,CT scan of stomuch, X-ray of chest n stomuch) everything was found to be normal. So I was discharged saying that pain is muscular n will be alright after few days.

I wanted to investigate why I fainted so I got a MRI of brain done, where I was found to be suffereing from Cysticercosis n I have started taking Tagrital tablet.
But the concern is even after all these days n applying muscular pain ointment n hot water bag the pain in the lower-central ribs n back is not improving at all n I am forced to take pain-killer everyday. So can u please suggest me the probable cause n treatment for the pain. And can this pain be associated with liver or pancreas malfunctioning?

Thanks alot.
