Q: Weird Pain
asked by: DanDvs on April 6th, 2007
New User, Becoming EHEALTHy
I've been having a pain for a few years now. Doctors cant seem to tell me whats wrong.

After running about 1/4 mile, it feels as if I'm being stabbed with a knife in my side. I double over and literally collapse. My breathing gets real loud, sometimes I pass out. It usually goes away within a few minutes, but it makes it very hard to do track.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

This doesn't sound normal. Go to another doctor (an internist doctor) until you find out what's is going wrong. I would be concerned you have a heart problem.

Thats what I was thinking, but its on my lower side, not really around the heart.

where abouts is the exact location of the pain, left or right?
Blacking out, this can be caused by not enough blood to the brain or hypoglycemia which means theres not enough glucose in the blood to supply the brain.

perhaps visit a good exercise physiologist?

It occurs in my lower side, in line with my belly button. Usually on the left, sometimes the right. I dont usually black out though.

No, I dont eat or drink anything really. And when I do, its the same as always.

I've seen a few doctors, a radiologist, and an orthopedic. None of which can find the problem.
