Hi all
In November last year I had a really painful episode of right upper quadrant pain. It lasted around 4 hours and it kept me from standing up straight. I had this episode following a really fatty chinese takeaway. Nothing was diagnosed at the time.
Since then I've had blood tests, CT abdomen and pelvis (with contrast) scan, CEA and Ca19-9 test, FIT test, diabetes test, HIV test, physical examination. In March last year I had an ultrasound because I was complaining of a bad back and sore shoulder (posture), nothing found on that either.
Symptom wise I have had sore throat, sore glands, tingly fingers, dizziness, tiredness, lethargy, pain in my lower right tummy, pain in my upper right tummy, pain in my right chest, right back too.
The only medical finding ever found was a low platelet count of between 111k and 116k and it is stable.
I'm either feeling pain but I can function or I have to sit and relax because it hurts a lot.
The only diagnosis ever made was IBS, which I have a hard time believing. Sadly, my mother passed away in March this year, which another doctor said could cause health anxiety too.
