I suffer constantly from abdominal pain and occasionally pelvic pain, which incapacitates me, not being able to walk. What do you do when this happens to you?
I've had multiple ultrasounds, X-Rays and CatScans (w/contrast and w/o), all to no avail. I do have osteoporosis, that was never mentioned to me or any discussions about it or how to "treat" it. I only found out because I read the results in my file, online, through the hospital. I've been taking Calcium+ capsules, and they really help. They don't take away the pain, but they do help. Abdominal pain is caused from a hernia repair mesh breaking loose, gravitating across my abdomen (from right to left) and causing an Enterocutaneous Fistula (a spontaneous opening from the inside to the outside (an already weakened abdominal wall). It also embedded in my remaining bowel (Eight feet total) and now I have liquid fecal matter coming out of now two small holes, down from one big hole. Including severe nerve damage and a neurological disorder that deems me permanently disabled. Walking is a challenge as is standing for extended periods of time.
Can't do physical therapy. I'm in constant chronic pain and moving makes my pain worse, not better. My pain can't be "walked off". It's a pain being in chronic pain.
