Answers:
Did they get an MRI done of your brain and neck.? Worst case scenerio: You could have what is called Chiari Malformation where your brain stem is being pulled down and squashed by the bones in the back of the skull. If you do have Chiari, then they also need to do an Mri of your lumbar spine to see if you have a tethered cord because it must be untethered before they can do surgery for the Chiari.

Other possibility, is you could have a herniated disc in your neck that is pushing on the spinal cord, and the only way to truly diagnose that is with an MRI of your neck. Your symptoms really implicate that kind of problem because of your pain being in all extremities, back, chest, etc...

If those two things are ruled out, there is the possibility of Fibromyalgia, or some type of Fasciomyelitis, or Lupus. Usually Fibromyalgia is diagnosed when everything else has been ruled out, but your problem really sounds to me more like a herniated disc. Do you have numbness and tingling in your extremities along with the burning pain.? And do you have any problems with your bladder or bowels.? (As in inability to control, and have accidents) If you do have bladder or bowel incontinence you need to go to the ER immediately.

There has to be a reason your are in constant severe pain. If you are unemployed, you may be able to get your local Vocational Rehab to help you with the bills, or you may have to apply for temporary disability and try and get medicaide. Or make a copy of this note and give it to your father, and ask him if he wants his son to become permantly paralyzed from the neck down.

If you have a herniated disc that is impinging on your spinal cord and it goes untreated, and you get rearended or fall, you could end up paralyzed.

For all he knows, you could have MS, or some other kind of debilitating disease, and it would be in his best interest to help you out with a diagnosis, so he doesn't have to pay for you to be in a wheelchair, and massive physical therepy, medications etc... The earlier the diagnosis, the less damage to your body. Another possibility is Rheumatoid Arthritis, unless you don't have pain in the joints themselves.
