Hi I have been feeling pain and tired for almost a year. Recently my doctor told me that my iron was level 9 and b12 was very low. She did an ultrasound of my stomach and found my spleen to be enlarged to 14 cm. Now there was something they couldn t explain is that everything I drink alcohol my neck, groin and under rib cage hurt so much. I also get very tired and shoulders hurt too. It lasts 4 days and calms down and now I started smoking again lightly and same pain comess.

Hope your query get answered.Wishing you a good health.
