Hello everyone,

I am 37 years old and have been a very health person for most of my life, but about 3 years ago I started having pain on the right side of my abdomen that now extends through my right hip and shoulder. The pain is only on the right side of my body and I have been to a lot of doctors who are unable to give me an explanation or treatment. I am hoping that if someone on this group has or know someone who has gone through something similar to this would respond to this post. At this point in my life I am hopeless. I have lost so much because of this debilitating condition and just want my life back. Please kindly respond if you know anything about this.

    Has anyone suggested Polymyalgia? Its incredibly difficult to diagnose but blood tests can help....especially an ESR and CRP which can indicate the level of inflammation in your body. A test for Rheumatoid factor could be helpful. Can you get to see a Rheumatologist?
