Never give up. Could this be a pinched nerve? Could this be stress? Stress can do a lot of weird things to your body. The irregular period seems normal. Your body is trying to normalize and, as you probably know, the nursing can effect that too. You don't want to continue to be in pain, so keep asking for answers. Try a different doctor. Even one can make a difference. I hope you get answers soon. Enjoy your baby. Please let us know what you find out.
I have the same thing. it has been over a year that i have the pains and i get very scared and irritable. i went to the doctor, and because i took different over the counter medications, my high blood pressure went up so high and he gave me medication for b/p. the medication he gave me, made my cough so hard because of dryness. he changed the medication to benicar it helped not too cough. i am taking a different medication for b/p now and i still have dry cough but not forced as it was the first few months when i first started taking high blood pressure pills. then the doctor said the pain was coming from my rt ear so he flushed out my wax. but the pains behind my left ear is still here. spasm pains, moving from behind my left ear down to my left side neck, lately, i feel around my side left face. here the doctor is curing me for something, i never thought i have when i went to see him for my left ear pains.
as far as i know, i did not have b/p but because i took different medications to help relieve the pains, i ended up having bp problems. now, i am taking bp pills. the truth, i am a person who do not run to the doctor, unless probably, i am really scared and do not know what to do and to calm myself down. i have a bad anxiety problems and i try to fight it back and not to run to the emergency room. when i burp, sometimes it helps to relieve the pains. it started in early part of 2010 and now is june 2011. i do not want or i cannot take too many pain relievers because not good with my high blood pressures or not good when you have bp problems? sometimes, i put cold face towel behind my neck it helps then but it keeps coming back.
