please diagnose me! in so much pain :(

squiddles · 07-15-2014, 03:40 PM

For a few days now I have been having excruciating abdominal pain and tenderness. It has slowly increased each day. It is in the very front of my abdomen, the pain is strongest around my belly button, and radiates out from there. When it is most painful it radiates around my sides (both sides) to my back.
The worst part is the tenderness. I cannot touch my own belly without feeling extreme pain. It hurts to engage my muscles when I rise to a standing position etc...
gotta run, I will come back to fill in more info later

To me that says it's time to run (not walk) to a doctor. I would worry about finances later if that's a concern. And I would take littles with me if I couldn't fine someone to watch them. Please get seen!!

I agree with mrs duck! "Excruciating abdominal pain" would have me in the ER

Marrae · 07-15-2014, 03:51 PM

Yes, this. With pain as you describe, I think you need to be seen by a medical professional.

Allison · 07-15-2014, 03:52 PM

Do you have a fever? Either way, you really need to be seen by a professional, mama.

Katigre · 07-15-2014, 04:07 PM

You need to be seen. It could be a hernia and your bowels getting stuck in there. Do not ignore these pain.

ThreeKids · 07-15-2014, 04:07 PM

The doctor might be able to figure this out with just a few pushes on your belly. I know the frustration of tests and more tests and no answers, but this is one where there's a good chance you'll know what's wrong in minutes.

MrsHutch · 07-15-2014, 04:08 PM

I hope you haven't responded because you decided to go to the ER.

Katigre · 07-15-2014, 04:09 PM

If finances are a concern, don't agree to a CT Scan and ask for a less expensive diagnostic test instead if available instead.

Doctor ASAP. pray5

MamaSam · 07-15-2014, 05:02 PM

Well, I was hoping you wouldn't tell me to go to the ER

But I'm here, but there's a million people here so they're gonna let me chat with a nurse before officially checking in...

The pain comes in waves... But even when it subsides it is still tender to the touch... Thanks for the prayers...
I'll be honest... I'm nervous they're gonna tell me I have gas and send me home... DH Is also slightly annoyed that I drug him along, he thought I should wait til tomorrow and try getting an appt with my PCP
