Anyone have vascular compression as the root cause of their symptoms?

I was on the website of a German doctor called Thomas scholbach and for the first time was able to find information that correlated my physical structure to symptoms, as well as get an answer for why I feel so much better when I move my body and breathe in certain ways.. 

I have left varicocele, hemarroids, head forward, away back posture,  abdominal visceral sensitivity and tightness, leg paresthesia, sinus pressure, poor thermoregulation, and most of the time, I am symptomatic on my left side.

Anyone else ?  All my  tests so far haven't indicated any issues, so either it's not the right tests or something else..


Here are the articles that correlated with my symptoms -

@Ranga me! I am so glad that you mention this. I have a lot of symptoms on the left side of the body. And noone knows what is that, some doctors said this is not related to POTS, some that it might be. And all of my tests are fine. I feel like something is pressing on my left side. 

Here are my symptoms:

pain and pulsing sensation by the left ear (left side of the face). Like something is standing there and is pressing something, especially when I am eating, talking, laughing, moving my eyes... Pain is spreading to the left front side of the neck with some nodules and itching. Sometimes pain is going to my left side of body - arm, thorax, leg and some spazms also occur. 

Sometimes my left side of face is red, like it is burning inside and is little swollen. It reacts usually to heat but it's not the rule.

I have crackling and fullness in my left ear; with moving, sounds, swallowing; there is also no rule. All these symptoms started along with POTS symptoms.

@Sushi @Sea otter I am on a reddit dysautonomia group that also a thread about many people with a similar pattern.. the reason suggested by the doctor in the link above makes sense. It is related to blood flow. I think in our case, it maybe due to a malfunctioning nervous system rather than actual structural issues causing the compression.

Thank you, very interesting, though I wish there were solutions (she writes as the left side of her head throbs!).
