So glad to hear that all is well. It was great to meet you in the waiting room. It certainly helped pass the time when they were almost running 3 hr behind.

They ruled out any hernia's with the scan, and never mentioned ibs.

Hi Kelly,

I'm afraid not to have a BM even for 1 day. It very well coud be a reason for your pains. Glad your doctor calmed you down and there nothing bad.

Feel better.

Thanks Alla. The other times I had the pain, I was not constipated. Who know? Could just be wicked gas?

Not sure what type of pain you are suffering.. but if 2 of the times coincided with shrimp it could very well be gas. I had to give up shrimp and other items that I know cause gas because I get this INTENSE pain under my ribs and it lasts from anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour. I usually have to curl up in a ball when this happens because it hurts so badly.

Quite possibly that is all it is. The original pain I had lasted 8 hours, and I could not move. Nothing helped (GasX, massage, heat) except Tylenol 3. Nothing passed either. I hadn't had a poop in 4 days, and the pain was also under my ribs, also stabbing on my left side at my waist, and then very low also on the left size above my pubic bone. I went to TWH a few days later, ultrasound showed gall bladder sludge, but not enough to have it removed. Upper GI Scope showed no ulcer and CT scan was clear of hernias or twisted bowel (which they thought I might have). Shrimp is gone from my diet because of gas, and it's high in cholesteral, which could trigger gall bladder attacks. Next time I have pain, I go in and they open me up.
