Beth, my heart goes out to you. I'm so sorry you're hurting. I understand the frustration of having chronic pain and not having a diagnosis.

If you can, try to get an appointment with a doctor who's faculty at a large teaching hospital. It might take persistence and there might be a wait, but they're usually the very best.

I'm lifting you in prayer right this minute and sending big (((((HUGS))))) to you.

I read an article in the NY Times recently about internal hernias causing women horrible chronic pelvic pain that can't be diagnosed. A urogynecologist may be the type specialist you need to find and see. That is the type doctor that finally helped the woman mentioned in the article. I wish I had a link to the article.

I hope you find answers. I had endometriosis and adneomyosis, OMG yes it's freaking painful. I had a hysterectomy in 2009, one of the BEST things I've ever done.

Time to find another doctor, it's BS you keep hurting and aren't getting results from your medical team.

Beth, so sorry you are hurting like this. I replied to one of your other posts but I will repeat, possibly an Intussusception? Your pain sounds all too familiar. I go to Brigham and Womens and Dr. Lautz is my surgeon, he will be operating on me next Friday to correct mine. Keep your chin up and try a new doc, please!

Beth so sorry you have to suffer because of doctors who won't or can't see this through for you. Like everyone else said, this is not in your head, and it is not your fault. You need to keep the search up for a new doctor, because I am positive that someone will diagnose and fix you! Hugs!

I am still loving life with my sleeve! Been maintaining at or below goal for over 4 years!
