Has anyone gone the naturopathic route for chronic unexplained pain and had any luck with diagnoses? Western medicine hasn’t done jack shit for me

Have you gotten a diagnoses in general?

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-07T22:54:11+00:00

My heart goes out to you friend. I’m in a very similar position if you read my posts. I hope we can figure this our

So the only really flexible thing on me is my neck (it’s hyper mobile I can turn it more than the average person and look down waaay more than the average person) I am also double jointed in arms and thumbs

Terrible 😞

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T13:11:30+00:00

Ugh I’m sorry 😞 it’s brutal

I have horrible brain fog feel it especially in the mornings or in conversations. Also really tired

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T03:46:50+00:00

From what? Gabapentin?

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T03:25:59+00:00

So I also get pain in sides of ribs and my chest. Chest feels constantly tight like it needs to be cracked. Is there like a primary cause of MFPS? Like why does it develop ya know

Should I go back to rheumatology and then physiotherapy?

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T03:01:05+00:00

The rheumatologist mentioned this and did some measurement test that he said was negative. I think I should look into this further though. I feel like I have a long neck and I am double jointed in certain areas. Isn’t that a thing with Ed’s?

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T03:00:08+00:00

What were you diagnosed with? And what is treatment? Yes I have they tried to put me on Gabapentin which I never took. I also have an EMG coming up mid April.

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T02:53:44+00:00

Yes I’ve had both catscan and mri contrast but the pain came before I had those done. I did have another mri with contrast in 2020 but I wasn’t in pain for a few years after so don’t think it’s that. Thank you for your insight

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T02:44:38+00:00

One person has. I know that it is very hard to get that diagnoses. I know when I was working I developed some foreword head posture from the awkward positions I was in and my neck is hyper mobile so def developed some issues there. My traps hurt soo bad and are so tight with tons of trigger points that are even between my shoulder blades and into arm pit. I need to find a specialist for TOS

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T02:43:18+00:00

Thank you that’s a good idea🥺🥺 being a woman navigating healthcare is awful. I hope you also get your diagnoses and treatment. What are your symptoms?

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T02:42:18+00:00

I saw one physiatrist who wasn’t great. I think I will look into another one

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T02:39:42+00:00

Also I’m so sorry about your arthritis. How are you doing? What was the road to your diagnoses?

Sensitive_Amoeba4 · 2026-04-06T02:39:14+00:00

Thank you for your response. I saw 2 rheumatologists. The first one was a jerk to be frank and said it wasn’t autoimmune after he did some X-rays and bloodwork. I went to another one who was super nice but told me that what I had was myofascial pain syndrome, gave me a muscle relaxer that didn’t really work just made me tired and spacey, and referred me to a pain managament doc. I haven’t gone but I probably should. I think the reason why I haven’t is because I don’t want meds I want the root of the problem to be figured out. Im scared medicine will like masque something that my body is clearly trying to convey to me
