What kind of disease/ill ness is this? #1 (permalink) Sat Mar 14, 2009 12:01 pm   What kind of disease/ill ness is this?
 

Hello,

I want to talk about this because it's so surreal I think it should have existed.

I have a friend who has this kind of illness with him for 10 years. His two sides, chest, neck and backbone become painful every day-- He has tried different major hospitals in the country-- and in the other neighbouring countries-- but still, no doctors could diagnose it. He hurts in the muscle and joints and no massage can help it.. but pain killers can help reduce the pain!

Can you have any idea? He's in pain any minute-- but he still works hard....

Hello Sahid,

'Raweater' is the term that describes a person who eats everything in its raw state. Raweaters only consume kernels, honey, fruits, vegetables, and germs. These foods are not to be cooked, fried or treated anyhow.

Does this makes things a bit brighter?

Regards

O..I see you mean raw-eater...?

Many thanks to introduce a new word as well as a new concept...

Long ago I have read about someone around 14 years old lad drinking only cow milk from his birth..may be due to some allergy or something...

Let us learn something new every day....

By the way, how can I pronounce your nick name....''SkiIucK''...?

'Ski' is fine.

I'm not quite sure about the hyphen, though.

Learning new stuff regularly is nice, yes.

Here are a few guesses:

1) Sickle-Cell Anemia
2) A nerve disorder
3) Severe gastroenteritis
4) An injury to the ribs (broken ribs)
5) Bruised kidney
6) Acute diverticulitis
7) An injury to the vertebrae -- slipped disc, ruptured disc, etc.
Cool Severe stomach ulcer
9) Cancer (if it's metastasized into the bones, I've heard that everything hurts)
10) Angina (one symptom is general tightness in the torso)
11) Bruises -- was his ass beaten badly in a fight? Was he tackled by an NFL linebacker? Was he in a car accident? Did he fall from two or more stories and not land on his feet? Did he run into a wall?

hopefully most of the '' different major hospitals in the country..he has tried to get treatment '' could have diagnosed all of your guesses...so still there may be some other possible causes..

Hi Tom,

I'll pass these to my friend and will see what he thinks.

Hi Sahid,

thanks for your concern. He repeatedly told me that those couldn't help him at all.. he even purchased medicine online but still it couldn't help him...he's a mature man so I don't think he cheats me with all these strange details at all.

Sahid & Rosalisa,

I'm no doc (obviously). Hopefully someone can figure it out and treat him
properly. The last thing I listed was in jest (being beaten, running into a wall, etc.).

Oh, hey... I just thought of this:

Go to http://webmd.com/

Hopefully they'll give you an answer, given your detailed description of his ailments.
