Hey, i'm an 18 year old boy. About 2 years ago I started feeling strange pains in my right testis. They were not severe. I didn't pay much attention. Then after a few months, I started feeling pressure in the area where I thought my right kidney was. There were no pains just pressure in that area. Also I would feel these burning pains in my right groin, above the bladder area. I went to a urologist and had an ultrasound. It was clear. The problem worsened and I started to feel another problem. I started feeling a little numbness and pain in my right thighs and lower leg. The doctors advised me to excersice and stuff but that didn't help. Then a few months later I started feeling pressure in my chest where I thought my heart was. It was accompanied by mild pain in my right arm. The real problems were still to come! Shortly after, one evening I started feeling this wierd feeling on my right face and head. It was as if the muscles of my right face were exhausted and very weak. I felt a little pressure behind my right eye and a little tenderness and heaviness in my right head. I thought it was just some headache and it would soon go but it didn't. A few months later, I suffered from severe acnes on my right face and I used to feel a lot of heat on my right side. A few months later I found out that my right face hade sort of drooped down a bit. I became really really worried and suffered from severe enxiety and depression. I also felt twitches around my right eye and on the face. I went to a neurologyst, psychiatrist, and a skin specialyst, but nothing came out of it. During all this time the problem has gradually worsened and also the kidney and heart pressure are still present but the kidney problem seems to have been improving. I had an mri but it was crystal clear. Since the doctors were not much help and spending a depressed 2 years with this thing, I started doing things on my own for example linking the facial muscular weakness with the kidney pressure since this seemed the only reasonable explaination. Right now, i'm in a depressed situation with all hope lost and would like to find a diagnosis for my problem. Any body out there with any suggestions please help me!! :( :(
