Has anyone heard of this set of symptoms? It's been 3 months, doctors have thrown their hands in the air.
So it started with severe bloating and abdominal pain, it happened suddenly. I had a CRP of 300, everything else including WBC count normal. Bloating has gone down but something just feel off with my abdomen. I have this kind of full feeling, or like something is there, and I can't twist without feeling pain. Most annoyingly, I have a nervy pain in my right shoulder/neck that is severe if I try to lie on my right side. One weird thing is that if I take a breath and hold it, the pain is absent. Also there's a pain under my right ribs that I feel when I take a deep breath. Can anyone help me? The shoulder pain is the worst. I should mention that I have a dermoid ovarian cyst but my gyno said that wouldn't be causing it. I'be had stool, blood and urine tests, ECG, and ultrasounds as well as physical examination. Here's a list of things I've been tested negative for:
- Pregnancy
- Gallstones
- Intestinal parasites
- Intestinal inflammation (IBD)
- Infection
- Virus
- Celiac
- Constipation
- Kidney, spleen, liver and pancreas damage/dysfunction
- Hyperthyroidism
Any resources would also be greatly appreciated.

Sorry to read you're in so much pain. Are your doctors still looking in to other possibilities? Are they helping you to manage the pain and other symptoms at all?
Unfortunately, it's quite difficult to offer suggestions as we're not medically trained, but we do have lots of members on the community who may be able to relate as they're either experiencing an undiagnosed/rare condition or have chronic pain. I hope you'll find a lot of support here on the community and that your doctors are able to help you with answers soon.
