Hi my friends here.

I had a sudden trauma through my upper back last Tuesday at 5:30am that I felt like I was having a heart attack that I had to call 911 cause I could not move the pain was so crippling and over whelming and I could not breath. The ambulance came and picked me up and took me to the Hospital they took blood tests and found my Pancreas was inflamed and that they may have been the cause. Then they had a GI doctor come in and run a test and low and behold my stomach lining was bleeding it was like gee what in the heck is all this going on with me! Then the doctor thought I am going to do an MRI test on her and see just by chance if her T4 is out in her spine it is hardly likely it would be, but we will do it that anyway. Well low and behold my T 4 was out and he said it was protruding my lung. I was like what in the world! What does that mean? He said, if I rested for a few weeks it should stay in place and heal.I had never ever heard of that before in my life nor do I ever want to experience again. just got out of the Hospital last night.

I could not make much sense out of this doctor and I asked him a million questions I felt I was not getting them answered.

Can you please help me.I felt like the pain went through my back and into my chest and stomach and I could not breath and it was the worst pain I ever experienced! I never want to experience it ever again.

Can someone Please explain to me what is a T4 I am looking some of it up and can it really heal itself? What are the chanced this will ever happen again? Also how can it protrude in the lung? Should I see a specialist on this? I feel like I am shoot in the back everyday and it goes through my chest. The doctor did the test by chance cause he said this happens to one in a million.

I just can not believe this is happening.

Thanks for any help you can give.
