18 years old sharp pain.

Posted , 3 users are following.

I've been having issues with my health for about 3 months now. Started with pain across the left side of my body, I've had an MRI of my head and neck, multiple blood test, Lyme test, vitamin D checks, chest X-ray and urine test. I haven't been diagnosed with anything and I've been beginning to fear the worse. I found my self looking up ALS because of some minor twitches I was having but I realized it wasn't that.

I'm having some sharp pain but it is always in the same spot. Comes and goes and hurts so bad. It's at the elbow on my left arm, left knee, and in my lower back in the middle, the pain hurts so bad. I've been getting weird electrical feeling in my head. At the back near my spine. And I get cold and got feelings in my thighs. I feel like it's a nerve issue but I'm scared it could be some sort of a tumor. I don't know what else to get checked. I've had so many test with no results and the pain won't go away' I need help.

    Hi Nick

    sorry to hear about all your pain.  Please get an MRI on your back.....insist on

    the   entire back....... I had  a tumor  on my spine....... they kep on doing lumbar MRI's....not thorasic which is where it was.. I couldn't walk any longer.  Most tumors are benign.  Good luck to you.

    Hi Nick,

    the only think I could find was something about statines that a person was taking for high cholesterol. Something about ezetrol. One person seemed to be saying that they had to STOP taking the medication and then the pain went away.  Another person started being treated wtih EZETROL for the pain.  I don't know anything about these kind of medications, I would suggest you talk to an internist.

    Thank you guys for the replies. I'm seeing my GP again on Friday but the pain is just so bad, I'm taking Tramadol for the pain. I'm hoping it's nothing serious.

      Hope it works out Nick.  Hopefully it is something they can fix easily.  I hope it's nothing serious either!
