Hi all - i've been feeling pretty strange
lately with some symptoms that don't add
up, and I was hoping I might be able to
find some help here, since the three
doctors i've seen in the past month
haven't told me a thing!
First off, i'm a 23 year old female. I
went to the doctor about 3 weeks ago with
a pretty severe pain in my lower right
abdomen. They ruled out appendicitis and
referred me to a gynocologist. After an
exam and ultrasound, I called to get
results and was told only "everything is
completely normal," although I wasn't able
to actually speak to a doctor. I also
haven't had a period in about 7 months,
where I was pretty regular before - the
doc gave no explanation for that at all.
Then, last thursday night, I took myself
to the emergency room after having
terrifying chest pains and a shortness of
breath. The pain came and went twice
before I went to the er, lasting about
30-45 minutes each time. When I went in,
an x-ray was performed, and I was told it
was likely muscle spasms/chest wall
irritation. Each day since then, i've had
spells where my chest hurts, occasionally
just a discomfort, other times bring tears
to my eyes, and usually in the evening.
The last couple of days, i've had spots of
itching welts pop up and just generally
don't feel well. I don't really want to
go back to the doctor just to be shoved
around and dismissed, but am curious if
these symptoms are indicative of anything
that might come to mind.
Thanks for any help!!!
