Posted on Tue, 31 May 2016
Question: I'm having bad sharp pains in my ribs down to my pelvis all on my left side as well as pain in my left arm and left leg the pain is on and off and it Cann last anywhere to 30 secs to sometimes 2hr. I'm also having slight spotting that started off very black blood then went very dark brown and then lightish pink and now is again a very dark brown. it's very dried up with some gooeyness in it. I'm feeling dizzy and light headed at time nearly blackout for a second last night. when I have the pain I can't do anything or really move I just have lay down and breath till it goes away. what might be going on? I just really need a first opinion before I go see my doctor if I even need to.

Brief Answer:
It could be due to hormonal imbalance.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concerns.
Brown colour spotting,dizziness could be due to hormonal imbalance.
As you are having blackouts and severe left sided pain,it could be due to cervical spondylitis.
But if you are having chest pain also get your ECG done.
But before giving my opinion I would like to ask a few questions.
Are you having any other symptoms?
Is pain is associated with vomiting, headache etc.?
Are you on pill or any other medications?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Good luck.
Regards
