i first starting having a sudden sharp pain in my left side right under the breast and after about a month of it I lost it and went to the er thinking I had a heart problem. I had an ekg and chest xray and bloodwork done 3 times and everytime they were fine. I have continued to have the pain for the past 4 months but now it has changed and I have this constant pain all over my chest that is sometimes stabbing, dull, or burning. In the morning the pain is predominetly in the upper left abdominal area. Also it is in my back and neck and sometimes my arms. I am completely worn out from it because my doctor says he is at a loss from what it could be. Originally thinking it was pleurisy, but now she does not have a clue. This is scary to me because I have such intense pain that does not ever go away. I fear it could be my heart or something serious even though the dr assures me it isnt. I do have anxiety, but this is so much different than anything I have ever experienced before. If anyone could help, id greatly appreciate the feedback.


Thanks...............

Also I have been on steroids, anti inflammitories and nothing is relieving the pain.
