For 4 months now, I have had lower left abdominal pain, seems to originate from the lower back though, sharp stinging type pain in the left hip, that radiates into my groin and leg. Everything is on the left side. I'm 37 years old, and usually very healthy. I pretty much woke up from a nap one day and felt a horrible pain in my left groin testicle area, it has now migrated to the spots I have mentioned. I'm a bit of a hypocondriac, and immediately start searching the web for lower left abdominal pain causes and find colon cancer and things of that nature. I have no sign of colon cancer in my family. I have had a ct scan of my abdomin and pelvis, and have even done a home fecal occult blood test. All tests were negetive. I'm lost and just want to feel like I felt 4 months ago. I've heard lower back strain, hip inflammation, sciatic nerve. Does anyone have these type of symptoms, and can help me figure this out?

There are numerous reasons, as you have said cancer is a remote possibility, you could have a hernia, you could have adhesions in your pertioneal cavity which is unlikely unless you have had previous surgery, you could have a nerve impingement or as the other poster said a kidney stone or a UTI is also possible.

The number of things it could be are just too numerous. You should follow up with your GP. He/she would need to do an actual physical assessment and possibly some diagnostic tests.
