I am a long time sufferer of HA and have visiting my dr for years. I thought it would help to write down all of the tests I have had over the last 5 yrs to see if I could convince myself that these painful leg symptoms and all over joint pains are just in my head. The list didn't make me feel better but I was amazed at how many tests I have had. I attached the list and I was curious if anyone else would like to share.
MRI of head
Ekg
colonoscopy
endoscopy of throat and stomach
CT scan of left flank
countless blood tests (including at least 3 HIV tests)
biopsy of removed tonsil
biopsy of removed nasal polyp
chest xray
2 CT scans of nasal passages
Ultrasound of testicle (sorry tmi)
I think that is it. None of them have found anything, yet I am still convinced I have any number of diseases at this moment. I hope that others will read this and not feel alone in their quest for answers.
Thanks,
