he said that it started when he was tearing up a cardboard box and pulled something in his arm and about a half an hour later this started.  It doesn't last all day, but this was about 2 weeks ago that this happened.  He asked the doctor about it and they could figure out what was wrong.  he keeps bringing it up b/c he is worried and I don't know what to tell him.  He is a pretty healthy gut in his 60's.  What could be wrong??

Does he have dizziness, blurred vision, trouble speaking or understanding, trouble walking, numbness or weakness arms, leg (face you stated) especially one side of the body. The pressure he has is it like a sudden severe headache? If he has any of these other signs or symptoms get him to a hospital he could be having a stroke!

To me, it sounds like overexertion and possibly a blood clot in his leg or somewhere else in his body, or dehydration, or a combination of something...but i'm not a doctor in any way...\n\nSorry for your loss...you have my condolences

My husband had that! It's called gastridous. An infection in the lining of the stomach. It hurt him real bad and he was laying on the floor throwing up one minute and dirreah(?spelling) the next. He went to the doctor and that's what it was. He has to watch how much sorrow stuff and pizza and real greasy hot foods that he eats, ecspecially late at night. But eventually it healed, and your brothers will too, if he follows good health instructions.

It could be an array of things. The best advice anyone of us could give you is to go to the doctor or emergency room as soon as possible.

Could be trichominosis, gonorreah, or anything.  He should see a doctor.

This can occur with several different bladder/urinary conditions.  He needs to see a physician, a urologist would be best, to diagnose the exact condition.  I would advise him not to wait because some of these conditions could worsen over time if left untreated and he could end up hospitalized.

I don't have any great advice unfortunately but please keep pursuing it. If I were you I would definetly report it to his medical association. \n\nI'm really sorry you are going through this. Hope someone comes along with a good answer for you.

He should be asking about the condition of his stomach lining to make sure he doesn't have any ulcers that could be hampering his ability to digest food properly. He should also stay away from soda and coffee (they are acidic and could make his problem worse.) And last but not least important he needs to ask to see a specialist (some doctors need to be pushed for a referral. if you are not getting what you need switch primary care). There could be other issues causing his problem it seams like his doctor is more focused on treating the symptoms, and not the cause.

I'm sure you've gotten plenty of help on this one but has any one suggested that he get a physical, maybe he is suffering from depression, or blood pressure problems, or sugar problems, I know with me if my sugar goes up I can be easily irritated and become angry in a flash, my blood pressure will also shoot up at that time, I'm not trying to defend him , only looking at it openly!

Definitely talk to his doctor, it may not be his diet. It could be an underlying health problem.

No, but he should see a doctor. He sounds as though he could have an infection or even a bowel obstruction. Often people pass liquid stool around a blockage so they think they are no longer constipated. Chill/fever would indicate an infection. Get the boy to the doc!!!

It sounds like an allergic reaction. He should go to the ER. It could be Stevens Johnson Syndrome which is a rare yet very dangerous allergic reaction. You do not want to mess around with allergic reactions things can turn dangerous very quickly. If the food has MSG in it he could be reacting to it,but try to think of other things than the food. Could he have gotten any medicine or into any chemicals?

It sounds like he could have some type of food or environmental allergy. Try bringing him for a second opinion.

:'( I am very sorry to hear that. I cannot believe that the doctors are saying that nothing is wrong. Do you have any neurological clinics in your area? I would recommend taking him to one or even a Mayo clinic. \nIf you have Barrow's in your area...they are tops. Even if they are far away, they are well worth the trip. YOu really need to get some help for him. I am so sorry about that.

Well, I hope it's non-uterine! You may have heard of sympathetic pregnancies, where men get a bloated belly in a kind of harmony with their pregnant wives. That ends up being  just gas, which is probably the source of his belly pain. So perhaps he is experiencing "Sympathetic Cyclical (Non-uterine) Dysmenorrhea".

It is when your body isn't pulling out the vitamins from what you are eating. It isn't a good sign. If it is still happening after a few days, go see your doctor.

Thanks for making me laugh.....\n\nI wouldn't worry about it unless it happens all the time.  Did you eat something very spicy yesterday?  Or perhaps you need to get more fibre in your diet.\n\nIn any case, I think you'd make your doctor giggle with that description of your problem.
