Guest guevara Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Every time i lie down on my back or left side i get sharp pains in my chest and in the middle of my back, sometimes these pains are in my arms and sometimes goe into my neck or leg.They are on and off.Sometimes i have had months go past without any pain but recenly i have been having evreyday. I have had it for about 15 months now and have been to the doctor 4 times and they just keep sending me away saying they dont think it is serious.I have had blood tests and my lungs and heart lisntened too and my spine examined by the doctor. I just cant get to the bottom of this proble.Does anyone ver suffer with the same symptoms? Kind regards Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guevara Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 How long did that last.The only thing is that bothers me is that the docotrs dont even know what it is, they just say it could be the way i sit or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guevara Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) If it was too serious would blood tests have found it.I have had them twice.If ihad cancer or something serious would blood tests flag up that there was something wrong, im only 17 by the way.

They could be on to something there mate. Like you say, if it's anything serious, they'd probably have found it. Could be your posture or something, or maybe a trapped nerve. Do you do alot of driving or anything? Maybe it's something to do with your job. What kind of work do you do? If it's worring you that much, try to go to a different GP surgery. If you keep getting fobbed off, keep on at them. Link to post Share on other sites

jasper65 6 Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 If it was too serious would blood tests have found it.I have had them twice. Blood tests show most things up mate! the trouble is there is so much crap about these days to catch you never know what you've caught. I caught what I thought was Flu off my cousin about 3 weeks ago yet I still have the same symptoms now as when I first got it! its not flu though as I don't have a temperature or anything, I just feel like shit with the aches all day and even worse when I get off my arse and do somthing.... I'm off up the Doc next week to see if he can't put me down .... Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Sounds of all that then, ye've likely just pulled a muscle while ye were active and now the muscle and the surrounding ones are getting soft and lazy. Don't forget; Those things have to keep ye upright and enable ye to bend and stretch. If the only bend and stretch ye do these days is get out of the arm chair for a piss, ye f*cked. Save that money. Just take a few bob and enroll at a local Dojo. Go learn some Karate or something. Never make a fighter of ye, but it'll sure as hell knock some basic fitness into ye.
