Two months ago I developed similar symptoms: a persistent, dull pain in the right abdominal region combined with fatigue. CT revealed mild inflammation and slightly enlarged lymph nodes. It's a difficult situation because these indicators are so nonspecific. (Fittingly, the pain includes the right hypochondrium.) I have essentially no confidence in the capacity of medical professionals to act upon any other than the most common and obvious clinical signs. Maybe because of its association with high social status, the medical profession seems to preferentially attract the sort of rigid and uninquisitive mind ill-suited for this complex and nebulous problem domain. To add insult to literal injury, unless one has the resources to obtain highly individualized medical attention, symptoms will almost certainly be classified as psychosomatic after perfunctory screening fails to reveal some clear-cut cluster of abnormal measurements -- as if all internal pain was a product of the mind before the advent of medical testing. Best of luck to you in finding relief. Reach out if you'd like to discuss this further. |
