I too have constant pain in the right side of my stomach below the rib and of course pain in both lower extremities and recently my hip and lower back have decided to join in on the party. But I am curious how they can diagnose the internal involvement? I mean that is quite scary if your organs can begin to shut down and they have nothing to back this.... is there a test or something, like a CT scan, something to show discrepencies in this area? This is beginning to sound more and more like the mother ship of Lupus! I am just concerned if anyone has any information on the internal involvement and... are doctors ready to treat this when it gets to this stage.
I stay on a strict gluten free diet and still have IBS and severe burning pain in my stomach. So any input would be greatly appreciated. I do not complain too much, I and the doctor just assume it is the celiac...but now that I think about it, I follow a strict diet...never cheat.
Thanks

Hi Jeanie..
How is you tonight my friend?? I hope i can help to clear up your questions..whole body refers to your outside as in all limbs along with your back...mine is in my pelvis now as well..being involved..now internal..I believe you will have much the same symptoms as you do outside..as in burning ..mine they were able to follow my brancial plexis down around the left side of my chest wall in toward the center of my body..touching areas I never thought did hurt..these areas hurt terribly..deep pain hurt..we know that feeling..when RSD gets bad enough in the inside it can actually haul its functioning..changes in digestion, or bowel habits..ect.. Iwho else out there has the broncial plexis route too?? I know of a few I think...
Jeanie..I hope this helped you..mostly symptomatic rather than a precise test..RSD pain is RSD pain..you'll know it inside and out...
Hugz my friend and have a good sleep...happy thoughts in your heart..you can't go wrong!! We have great people here..
