Neck & Shoulder Numbness With Weird Stomach Symptoms for months at a time

Posted , 1 user is following.

HI Everybody

Not sure if i am just being silly. about 3 years ago for about 6 months i had this numbness in my neck & shoulder. it just appeared out of nowhere. with it i had a strange stomach sensation. almost like a muscle in my abdomen on the right feels stretched at the same time. i have been to a chiropractor, physiotherapist, doctor, cortisone injections, dry needling etc in the past 2 months but nothing seems to help. i am not even sure if it is related. i did blood tests. all normal. no signs of immediate cancer, i am 47 & my BP is 120/80, my cholestrol is 5.5 and everything else perfectly normal. it literally controls my life. 3 years ago when i had it for a few months, just like that it left me again until about 2 months ago. as i sit here i have shoulder & neck numbness & towards the right side of my abdomen, it feels "stretched". am i just busy going crazy or has anybody ever eperienced this? i know i am being stupid. there are people my age that deal with difficulties 1000 times more serious than mine, but we all have our darkness. i really hope somebody may have some advice.

thank you kindly.
