What Is The Reason Of Abdominal Pain?
Hi I believe I may have HAE. I am male 48 years old living in Spain. At the age of 14 (first attack) I was taken to hospital for severe abdominal pain. I have returned with the same symptoms over 10 times and never found a cause. I was told it may be a grumbling appendix. Apart from that I have a rash on my buttocks, have constant urinary tract infections and constantly urinate with a very week flow and quite often have top concentrate to urinate. I also have constant nasal drip thick mucus at the back of my throat every morning that causes me to vomit when trying to brush my teeth. I have mentioned all this to my doctor and have been to hospital and asked for the blood test but so far have been refused. I am being treated separately for all the symptoms. I am told allergies cause the mucus problems even though antihistamines nasal spray and such like do help a little it never eradicates it. urinary problems I am told is psychosomatic and pains in stomach are due to grumbling appendix. Rash is also allergy. Apart from that I had tonsillitis for 6 months and weeping blisters on my face as one of separate attacks. I have just discovered that HAE exists and it seems very strange that I have all the symptoms. Life is good but it would be much better without the problems in the morning with mucus and the urination problems. Would appreciate any advise or help. I have no idea why my Dr will not do the test for C1 and C4 inhibitors. Do you think it could be something else?
