in pain for the past two years
Posted: 10-28-04 17:33pm

For the past two years I have been in pain. At the beginning it was thought to be specificly my hip. Now after 13 different naval doctors including orthopedics, physical therapy, chiropracters, pain clinics, and just my regular old docs I have come to the conclusion I may never know why exactly I am in pain. Ok a little history it starts in my lower back and with anything strenous it will move down my right leg to my knee and foot (which will go numb and tingle) and also up my back to my neck shoulder and down my right arm. There are times I have lost all strenght on that side and have fallen over. I am a us marine and I am so frustrated with educated guesses by doctors who just don't care. I just need some help we have ruled out everything from trhocantric birsitus to spondlylthesis my bones look great and now the docs are concentrating on myofascial syndrome. Ok so what I am asking is does anyone one have any suggestions? Or am I going to have to be in perfect physical condition for the rest of my life to just feel normal. I am a 22yr old female 5'3 and 110 I work out three to five times a week already (i am a marine) why then do I feel like I have a 80 year olds body? I have no evidence as to anything that can pin point why I am in pain. Is it all in my head I highly doubt it. Please help
