Hi there! Im a brand new member to these forums.

I joined in a slight panic about stomach pains ive been suffering after eating, which I havn't a clue what could be the matter, but its pain enough to make me unhappy Sad

Its a combination of nausea and cramps. Nausea in my stomach and pain just all around my abdomen. Im getting it as I type this... and there is more of pain slightly on the right hand side of my stomach? I think anyway! I didnt experience it on one side yesterday, and the pains kinda just shoot or come up where they please. I havnt actually vomitted or anything. I can get abit hot and sweaty (but that might just be me fretting!) and I belch more... otherwise I feel normal.

Its not after everything I eat. The larger the meal the more it hurts. Little things I eat dont cause any discomfort, and nor do drinks. I feel as though ive lost my appitite, but still force myself to eat, because im quite underweight.

I dont think im pregnant, but I cant rule that out completely :/

Im going to my doctors tomorrow morning to get it checked out... I broused a little for answers earlier but didnt really get any contructive information. Just confusion... and a few causes that could be very serious that got me scared.

I really dont think its stress-related at all... though now im stressed about this I know the feelings will be alot worse.

Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong?

Thank you all
xxx

Nausea

Hey Nicotine,

I wish I could just gie you a stright answer to your issue but nausea is so common with so many diffrent variations its really hard to tell what would be best without any test being run. I would ask your doc to request a CT Scan (CAT Scan) with and without IV contrass. It pretty much maps out your stomach for them and they can see if there is anything wrong such as ulcers, reflux, stones, ect. As for me I have the same issue I am always nauseas, barely hungry , and I get shooting pain now and then in my upper abdomen. I have been on so many meds its sad i think I have taken at least everything in stock in walgreens' pharmacy for nausea and nothing the only thing that helps the slightest bit is actually marijuana. i know its a bit odd to hear so but I never even use to smoke until they told me it helps nausea. I tried it once and now I smoke about twice weekly to help with nausea and it does ALOT. try it out and let me know how it helps

Gall Bladder or Stomatch related problem

It could be definetly to do with gall bladder problems like stones, As I went throught the same I had massive pain one and went vomitting and than discovered that there was gall stones when examined by doc.Or It can be stomach related..like acidity, ulcer etc..
Best thing to do is visit a doctor and he will do the needfull.
Never Panic.Nothing can be done unless u get checked.And thankfully everything will have a solution..
Good Luck!!

Foods may affect your GI Tract

I have been experiencing the same problems, minus the abdominal pain. I usually get it at night time. I was told it was acid reflux and should try sitting up when I sleep. But the problem was I wasn't laying down when I would feel it. Finally a doctor told me it was most likely my GI Tract. First try decreasing the amount of greasy foods as well as caffeine intake. Also cut back on sweets, icluding sweet tea or soda. Im not saying cut them out completely but dwindle the amount. After a few weeks if nothing has changed, then ask your doctor and ask him to check out ur GI. It may be deeper than foods. I unfortuntly have not been able to go back, so I am still suffering. Good Luck to you, I hope this is helpful.
