I had a hiatel repair and reflux surgery oct 3 2012 three weeks later I started have extreme abdominal pain and lower back pain so that I have been hospitilized 11 times. I have had all the test and they found nothing and put me on morphine and lyrica but I still have constant gnawing painm and sometimes the pain increasing and i have to be rused yo hospital or call ambulance because my blood pressure goes to over 200 the top number and the bottom 100 and above and i need iv pain medicine. I have times when I cant eat I have been put on Tpn several times in hospital or on and all liquid diet. I never experience so much pain except when I had partial hysterectomy in July 2007 I had 6 grapefruit size fibroid tumors removed. I only had uterus removed. The pain had me going thru depression due to I'm in constant pain and the doctors keep saying we can't find anything wrong and I know it's something wrong because I did not have this pain until after the surgery in October 2012 and its been downhill since I have been in the hospital and er so much my veins are shot and I have had so many pic lines I had to have a power port put in in march 25, 2013 and on April 15 had a severe asthma attack plus severe abdominal pain went to er was admitted to hospital for asthma and I had Pnuemonia and 3 days later they found I had a staphe infection in my port had to be moved acute care center for a month they treated my staphe not my abdominal pain they just gave me Dilautin every 4 hours and narco every 6 and I still was having break thru pain with that which would bring pressure up and then they had to give me IV pressure medicine to bring it down.
I am a severe asthmatic, have copd ( never smoked copd cause by my severe asthma), sleep apnea, diabetes (take pills), high blood pressure, over active thyroid, and irregular heartbeat. So being on narcotics is not good for me with my asthma because my breathing is already compromised and the pain medicines I take all or not recommended for people with my health problems so it scares me to deth but I can tolerate the pain so I have no choice.
I have been told by some doctors it could be Adhesions and some doctors say I can't get adhesions because I have no uterus but I have read that's not true. Some of the test have found they I don't digest food well and I have bile left in my stomach but I was not given any medicine to treat that and thet say my food digest slow.
I really need someone who can help me I'm sure the doctors I have seen have done the best they can but I know it's something wrong going on in my body and I will take any risk to find out because the pain is unbearable and I know the narcotics are dangerous for me with asthma. I want off the pain medicine you don't know how many times I have been to er and they have humiliated me and say you need to find out where the pain is coming from because secant keep giving you pain medicine especially when they do ther routine cat scan and X-ray and find nothing. I have sat in er screaming and crying from the pain, urinitaing on myself waiting to be seen.
I hope you can direct me to a doctor who can help me I will travel even out of Texas to another state if a doctor feels he can help me that how desperate I am.
