I was told the original pain in my tooth was a cavity, then nerve related so they did a root canal and said that would be that. The pain I’ve had in my gums, all teeth on that side, eye, ear, jaw, cheek, throat have been much worse since having the tooth fixed! Before going to the dentist only my tooth hurt.

Ever since I have had issues with the autoimmune junk I have had a lymph node in my neck getting swollen and hard. Sometimes the lymph node will go down but then it will get hard again and stick around for a good month or so.

Has anyone ever had helicobacter pylori?

My GP mentioned it on my last visit, because my costochondritis hasn't gone away since March, in March I had what I was told was a serious chest infection.

I've just got into bed and again can feel and hear my chest on the left rattling. This is the same side the 3 chest infection I've had in the past 12 months have been. I'm 33 years old and was still at school when I had any previous chest infections.

I'm at the doctors on Thursday for other… read more

I find my chest ribs are so sensitive and feel bruised when touched.

I started Lyrica May 27th. I experienced dizziness that went away by the end of the week end. I am now experiencing swelling in my feet and hands. I have had worse during my monthly cyle, but it does hurt. Has anyone had the swelling issue resolve after they have been on Lyrica awhile? How long did it take for Lyrica to start working for you? I think I'm being impatient, as I have only been on it 9 days. Thank you!
