Tired..

I've been reading a little on referred pain, and thought it a good idea for some of you to consider this as a possibility.

"
Some exampes: (origin- location pain is felt)?
gall bladder- top of the right shoulder
diaphragm- shoulder and neck
stomach- spine between the shoulder blades
kidney- groin area
throat- ear
Intestine- middle or low back
"

something to consider, if you have pain, perhaps your doctors have been looking in the wrong place

When all else fails, play dead!

Interesting...But is there any way to tell the difference between 'real' and referred pain?

I get referred pain around my ribs from my back and when it spasms it really swells. I take Fenac to reduce it. (the swelling)

Plenty of doctor visits and tests.

I Will Be Diagnosed !

As Cathie said "Plenty of doctor visits and tests." Also perhaps nerve function tests, and also nerve specialists (can't recall their correct title)
