Chest Pain for 1 month

I’ve been having upper abdominal pain since August and I have yet to figure out why. The pain alternates from upper left side to upper right side. The pain comes and goes throughout the day and sometimes radiates to my upper back. The pain is a crampy stabbing type of pain. Food doesn’t make worse normally. I’ve also had significant weight loss this year I have loss 23 lbs unintentionally. I’ve had an upper scope and colonoscopy done both were normal. CT scan in September was normal. I recently had a duplex ultrasound done which showed possible median arcuate ligament syndrome but it also showed stenosis in the celiac and super mesentery artery. I’m waiting to get a ct angiogram done. Any advice because the pain is starting to get worse and I don’t what else to do. I’ve also had my gallbladder out 6 years ago.

It may sound far-fetched; however, my wife had and has pain that comes and goes on her lower left side, not deep pain just lower rib area. She has been diagnosed with fibromyalgia in the past. Nothing helps discomfort, it just comes and goes.

Hello @amm97. I noticed that you had made a previous post with regard to your pain and figured it would be nice to move your most recent post back there to keep your updates in one place.

I wonder if you've ever heard of keeping a symptom journal? You could jot down a few regular details of your day to include activity, food, hydration, sleep, etc. to see if you can find any external factors that may be contributing and/or exacerbating your symptoms. Is this something that you might be interested in trying?
