default
Posted on Fri, 29 Apr 2016
Question: I've been dealing with alot of anxiety and stress lately because I've been in pain but haven't been able to find a conclusion so it's making me anxious. the more I think about it , the more pain shows up in different areas. right now I've been experiencing a slight headache above my eyes along with mild lightheadedness..is this my body's way of telling me to calm down and rest? I've also had a lot of teeth work done in the past year that gives me pain in my jaw..could too much teeth work cause more problems?

I've had issues getting teeth fixed but ending up getting an infection so that results in further work on my teeth. then I worry that all my teeth that get worked on will get infection and become systemic. a few months after getting my teeth started (I was pregnant and couldn't get them fixed before) I began having pain in my arms , back, cheat and shoulders. I began thinking I had infection or something. the pain left the upper part of my body and my pelvic area began to hurt. It turns out I have 3 kidney stones. other than the stones, I can't explain all this random pain and it feels like I'm dying. I'm not sure if I'm struggling with post partum depression and all this is in my head. I find myself crying alot

Brief Answer:
It could be due to postpartum depression.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for the detailed information.
Your symptoms could be due to postpartum depression but it could be due to some organic causes also like your lower abdominal pain could be due to renal stone and upper body pain could be due to reffered pain from teeth.
So please took some analgesic for pain and drink a lot of water for stone.
Do some yoga and meditation to relief anxiety.
Kindly tell me now where you are having maximum pain and if you are having any associated symptoms?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Good luck.
