Suggest Remedy For Severe Headaches With Chest And Back Pain
I just had a baby in late oct 2013. It was a c-section and somewhat complicated. Since then I ve had many complications and I m at a loss. I woke up one morning with a huge bulge under my left breast. As if (and I know it sounds crazy) I were still pregnant. I seen my doctor to have my staples removed mentioned it but it was passed over. Now all my symptoms come and go. But some nights I have severe headaches but only on the left side of my head and has a cold feeling on the top of my head not brain freeze cold but cool breeze only on my brain. Sometimes it s sharp pains in my chest right between my breasts. I went to the er in a panic one morning feeling as though I was having a heart attack. They ran an EKG and preformed a bunch of tests for sign of stroke. Said everything was fine and said it was actually musleskeltiotius (not sure I spelt that right). Gave me an anti inflammatory and sent me home. Couple weeks later I ended up back at er with same problems. They took blood and made me drink some horrible tasting drink. Gave me script for Pepcid and sent me home. Fast forward a month and here I am. May sound crazy but I have pain that jumps from joint to joint my left toes and face ache and my left arm feels numb. This all comes and goes. I have severe headache in left side of head. Chest and back hurt. And again this may sound crazy but it s like the pain goes from my chest directly through to my back between shoulder blades. And also still waking up to a buldge under my breasts 3-4 times a week. I just want to know what is wrong. I have no health insurance so I end up in er and they don t help any! I m at a lost and sometimes scared to fall asleep out of fear of not waking up because I don t know if I m dying or not

Hello,
You are suffering from severe headache on the left side of your head. You also have sharp pain in your chest right between your breasts. You also have body ache from time to time. Sometimes your left arm feels numb. You have a bulge under your breasts. Lump below your breast may be indicative of extra fat cells if obese. If overweight, you are suggested to do regular exercise and walking and also switch to healthy diet plan. Avoid fried food, oily food, trans fat, full fat dairy products, refined flour, sugar, carbohydrate, etc.
Prefer to take boiled food over fried food. It can be due to other medical conditions like lipoma, fibroadenoma, cyst, etc. Get clinically examined by an OBGYN. Get all required tests and investigations done. Get treated. Pain in the chest may be indicative of acid reflux, avoid oily, fatty food. Never skip meals. You can take pantoprazole, Pan-40, one stat when needed for relief. Other medical condition that can cause similar symptoms is developing coronary artery disease, CAD.
Get all routine cardiac tests and investigations done as you are also having numbing of the left arm. You will be accordingly treated. You are suffering from migraine, avoid tensions, anxiety and stress (emotional and physical). Avoid direct exposure to sunlight, avoid bright light. Stay away from strong smell, fumes, paint smell, do not eat anything that triggers acid reflux. Take food that is well cooked and easily digestible. Take adequate rest. Take enough fluid so that your body electrolyte system is well equipped with the required minerals.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
