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?
Thank you for replies. I did have hysterectomy in 2001. I thought that might have something to do with it as pain started along incision line. The pain started in 2010. The doctors didn't think there was any connection as so many years past.

No test for gluten that I am aware of. I have had many tests xrays, cat scan, some bloodwork, urine. Nothing organic showed up except for gallstones. The gallstones don't seem to bother me.
