Pain

Hi Friends, I don't know what is going on lately, but for the last 3 days my stomach has hurt and I have had strong cramps in my intestines. I always struggle with constipation. This morning I woke up, had coffee and then milk and my pills. As soon as I started the milk and pills my stomach started hurting again. This is weird. Any thoughts anyone? My surgeon and hospital has closed so if I contact a surgeon, it will have to be a new one. Should I call my PcP?Anyone have any ideas to try first? Please give me your advice. Thanks, Kim M.

Does the pain only happen after drinking milk? Have you not had a BM in a few days? I would call your pcp for starters. See if they can figure whats going on. ALso is your pcp following your labs? I hope they are keeping tabs on things for you, if not maybe you should thinkl about getting another gbs surgeon to follow you. Good luck, and I hope you feel better soon. Sher

Yes, my pcp is following my labs, but I do feel a little left out in the middle of nowhere with my gbs leaving town and closing the hospital doors. I do need to get one established and not wait for an emergency. Thanks for encouraging me to take charge of myself. Kim M.

yes I would call your PCM then go from there ,hope all is well will be praying for you

Thanks Rebecca. I think we have it narrowed down to the Neurontin I am taking for my fibromyalgia. I can't stand medication. It just does doosies on my body. Kim M.

I was told that fasting for one day would be a good break on the stomach and intestines. I can't seem to fast longer than half a day.

Thanks Jennifer, I think you are right about the fasting. It does let you add things back in one at a time and little by little to find the culprits. Thanks for the reminder. Kim M.
