I have the same symptoms. I have had this for at least 5 years. I am 42 years old, and I also have received no satisfaction from the medical field. My husband thinks I'm a hypochondriac. This is very painful. Any ideas from anyone about how to resolve this would be appreciated. It helps just to know someone else is experiencing the same thing.
