Question chest pain

Hi, I have been reading about the rare disorders, and I have one for you all! It started out with chest pains, it started out light, then by the third day I had to go to the er. All kinds of test were done, blood, x-rays,c-scans, dies injections for scans, name it I had it. The found this thing growing on my left lung, it is around 11cm long, and 3 deep. They think it is from my side, fatty, the doctor said we all have this fatty on each side, right, left, and it looks like that fatty grew and broke through my chest cavity and is growing on my left lung. The surgeon is 85-90% sure it is not cancer, but does not know for sure what it is.The doctors also found some kind of inflamation along the bottom of my left lung. They dont know why I have that either. I go back to see the RA doctor on Thursday, of this week. This will be my second time seeing him. He has dx me with fibromyaliga, but has to get with the other doctors to see why they wanted me to see him. He did not get any films, reports, and I wasn't asked to get anything, so I hope he has the info he needs, so I can find out something! If you all have any info, please share it with me. I was sent to see the RA doctor because of the inflamation on the lining of my left lung, and found out all my body pain was from fbm. The pain is sharp, and the past few days I gasp for deep long breaths, and yawn trying to get it. It happons maybe once or twice a day, it started at night, while I was sleeping, for once, I dont sleep much. I try to lay with my pillow elevated, it bothers me sleep flat.I have a need to clear my thoat too, nothing comes up. I do alot of forgetting, I was told it is from Fibromyalgia. Please help!
Well

Hi well,

Have have you been making out? Have you found anything out lately?

I have been ok. I have a disorder called Reflex sympathetic Dystrophy it is a disorder of the nervous sytem that causes severe pain. It was caused from a fall where I broke my wrist.

I hope you are doing fine.

Take care
cattys
