I think doctors in general brush things off. I do feel for myself I am careful on how I state things to doctors. So instead of saying fat maybe say pressure or swelling. Just an idea.
On the rsd board a lady has severe swelling on her stomach and her doctors are also having a hard time with treatment. You stated your pn started there? So I am wondering if it is from the nerve inflamation which I think can cause swelling? Did you have an injury etc to that area? Have you been tested for gluten or other similar conditions?
