Has anyone been diagnosed with Abdominal Wall Pain
Chronic Pain | Last Active: Mar 14 12:16am | Replies (282)Comment receiving replies
Hi there! Can you please specify what ACNES syptoms did you have? My wife seems to have ACNES and we're trying to diagnose it and compare with other people symptoms that already had ACNES. My wife has constant pain in a lower belly for more than 5 month - this pain is not responding to painkillers and does not depend on physical activity or stool. It's just always there, especially severe in the morning hours. Will really appreciate your reply.

Hi Erion, It sure sounds like ACNES. Google the Carnett test - that is the first verification. Next you need to find a Pain Management center that has some familiarity with ACNES. They should give Trigger Point shots to the effected area. You should see moderate to total relief but it is only going to last a short time but it is a verification that it is ACNES. This test is needed for the surgeon before he will consult with you. My surgeon was Dr Thomas Gillespie at St Joseph's Medical Center in Phoenix. He does see new patient and they can be from out of state. He performed Robotic Laparoscopic surgery on my abdomen severing nerves T8, T9 and T10. BTW, he may be the only surgeon in the country - maybe the world that performs this type procedure which is the safest way. Except for soreness from the cutting I left the hospital same day CURED. ACNES is a horrible and very debilitating syndrome - I went through it. I'd be happy to talk on the phone with you. You can probable find me on google - they don't allow phone number given out.
