A member asked:
My abdominal muscles jerk involuntarily (almost like doing stomach crunches). neurologist has run numerous tests and everything came back normal so diagnosed with spinal myoclonus. second opinion?

Myoclonus: You have an unusual syndrome! If this is caused by spinal myoclonus, you should have an MRI of your thoracic and lumbar spine to evaluate for spinal cord problems as the cause. In many people, no definitive cause is found.

I had pains in my upper abdomen, I took Omniflux. But then lately when this pain comes I've noticed that the sides on my back hurt,that I can't stand or sit up straight. Last night, it was even worse it felt like my spinal cord was cracking. Help!?
I have extreme pain in my upper abdomen. Middle and both sides. Gets worse when running. Doctor suspected a ulcer a while back. Put me on topzole for two months. Went away now month later the pain is back. Tested for bacteria negative.
I woke up this past Sat a.m. with what I thought was a pulled muscle on the left side of my mid back;now has radiated to upper abdomen.
Been injured for about a month, primarily in the left bicep but also radiating throughout the entire arm at moments. Severity of pain goes up and down. Went to urgent treatment, who said it was a pulled bicep muscle. I was wondering about a pinched nerve. Prior to this I was jarred down and landed on my back side, while in seated position. My upper abdomen and lower chest felt like it was compressed. Felt like everything had been pushed down. Any ideas? Thanks. Sore bicep/arm
I pulled a muscle during workout 3days back. Am currently on painkillers. Now my right upper abdomen feels tight and hurts. What should i do?
