Can anyone help with this question..
Hi Everyone,
For the last 5 days I have had pains in my pouch area. I am fine when I wake up in the morning and it doesn't start to ache until I start moving around. Sometimes the pain is a "stabbing" feeling and when I sit and relax it goes away. I have had no problem eating or drinking although I have not been hungry because of the pain but I amke myself eat something. I talked to Brett yesterday on the phone and his suggestions were either a muscular strain or a stomach like virus. Anyway he had me go to the ER yesterday but I never got seen by a doctor. I waited over 5 hours, watching people come and go, even ones who came in after me. I left finally at 7:10pm since I was getting hungry (I hadn't eaten since 1pm and their vending machines had nothing but junk in them) plus I figured i would feel better once I got home. This morning though I woke up fine as i had been but am now feeling some aches since I have been moving around. Anyone else ever have this?
Hope
Hi Hope,
So far nothing like this for me, it must be awful. It does sound like something involving muscle. Do you remember doing anything weird...like picking up something heavy or doing activity you don't usually do? If the viral route, are you having any other symptoms like fever?
I'm sorry about your experience in the ER. Pays to get vocal when you aren't getting proper treatment! I hope you feel better soon.

PS. Sending you a feel better fairy
This may sound strange but I sometimes get the same feeling when I realize I haven't went to the bathroom for a few days... So, I take correctal tablets to make myself regular and then the pain is gone. My problem is that I don't drink enough everyday. I'm working on getting better on that. But anyway, This might be a solution for you. I hope that maybe it would be something this simple. I remember one night I had pains so bad that I wanted to go to the ER. I'm a little over 1 1/2 years out. Good Luck to you!
Hi Everyone,
I am feeling much better now. It wasn't constipation. I'm not sure what it was. the only thing different I had done was I started working 2 days a week at a deli my mom runs and thought maybe that did it. Or maybe it was a virus in my stomach. Who knows. I just know I feel better since yesterday. I work this afternoon and am a little scared especially if that was the cause. Thanks for all your concern!!
Peace~~
Hope
