Q: Bornholm & Pleuradynia
asked by: blanchemiles on September 11th, 2007

For about 30 years I have suffered on and off with chest pains. Diagnoses have gone from pulled muscles to collapsed lung. I have had tests for just about everything and all the test results are negative, but the pain I feel is not imaginery. I usually know when its coming as i get a strange taste in my mouth, it then progresses to pain on my right hand side and intensifies as the hours go on. I have extreme temperature variations, feel really ill and without -pain killers am in agony. Bouts are becoming 6 months apart now and I am completely unable to do anything for at least 2-3 days until the pain slowly subsides. I'm just not sure if I have Bornholm as I don't have some of the other symptoms described here. My GP's are at a loss. Pain management seems to be the only treatment. This isn't really that helpful but it makes me feel better posting it. Any ideas or suggestions would be great. Crying or Very sad
