Hey im a 21 yr old male I have horrible
abdominal pain in right upper to mid quad.
I also have alot of pain after
eating/weight loss due to not
eating/nausea/tired and weak. This has
been going on for about 3 months now. I
lost 25lbs im down to about 105 lbs. I
have had tests for gallbladder and they
came up negative. I have also had
endoscopy/cat scan with iodine
injection/full plate of xrays/ultra
sounds/and blood tests-everything
negative. Has any one else had any of the
same encounters with this? If so what
were you finally diagnosed with?? Thanks
for any help!!!

Pain After Eating Posted: 08-25-03 20:30pm
Hi there, first I would like to tell you I
spent the better part of the last 15
months of last year in pain!! Just so you
know, all those test on you gallbladder
will only show stones 3 cinementersor
larger. I had all the test too. And they
all showed nothing!!! But still I had
pain mostly after I ate I would describe
it as "eating very little" but feeling
like a had a seven course meal. Not fun
at all. And the doctor that I had was
trying to tell me it was all in my head
,and showed me the door. So I encourage
you to keep going to doctors untill one
will listen to you.I went to 5.
To make a long story short I went to my
husbands surgen and he did one test on me
to see how well my stomach was working,and
it had stoped completly, now it made sence
to me why all the vomiting. It,s called
gastric perecis (parylized stomach) I now
take medicen before I eat to make it work
im not tottally pain free but better, and
as for my gallblader (stabing pain) right
upper
quad after I got stablized on the new
meds my new doctor took it out where he
found seven two millmeter stones and a
diseased gallblader so dont take a
doctors word for because sometimes the
paitent is right. Keep pushing the point
you are in
pain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Pinge

P.S. Just a note to let you know I have
ad a 30 lb weight loss because I was
unable to eat or keep anything down, and
trust me I had all the same test as you
tell them you want a
gastric empting test very simple you eat
radiated food and you lay still for an 1
1/2 hours whill the watch the food move,
all you have to do is take a nap, just so
you know this condition is very rare so
push the point. Pingers

Stomache Pain Posted: 08-27-03 02:37am
Hi, I too have had recurring stomache pain
for over eighteen months now, been taken
off to hospital on numerous occasions, I
had an episode in january of this year
while on holiday in malaysia, and was in
hospital for 4 days, I have been diagnosed
with, ileus which just means, imflamation
of the bowel , since then my stomache
looks like I am 9 months pregnant , on my
return to this country I have had various
tests, (endoscopy, colonoscopy, barium
enema, ex-rays and numerous other tests).
Which have all come back clear.
I am still awaiting the results of my
barium enema, which was only done
yesterday. I know that this is not all in
my head. At the moment, I feel that
nobody is really listening and trying to
get to the route of the problem, it has
taken 18 months for these tests, I suppose
that is one of the pleasures of living in
the u.K and having this health service.
Please keep me informed of the results of
your tests, and if the doctors come up
with an answer, I will let you know mine.

Painful Stomache Posted: 09-28-03 18:44pm
Hi, just thought I would continue my
stomache saga, I had a barium enema about
five weeks ago and have finally got the
results, I have got a narrowing of the
colon, which the doctors think could be
causing the pains and they want to do more
tests.
Does any one know what this could mean?
It has me completely baffled?.
I still get the pains, quite severely
sometimes.
Any answers would be very appreciated.

Please Help Posted: 10-02-03 22:27pm
Hi i'm a 17 yr old female and I have been
having extreme stomach pains for the past
two months, I have iron-deficiency anemia,
I was originally told I had acid reflux,
but after taking the medication and no
results they continued to do testing I
have had a upper g.I, c.T, small bowl, and
a colonoscopy, as well as a series of
blood test. My stomach pains come out of
the blue and cause me to doble over in
pain, I have missed 3 weeks of school, I
have changed my diet to eating only bland
food but the pains still persist, the pain
is in my middle to upper left quadrient of
my stomach and does not move anywhere, the
pain is sharp stabbing pain, but also
feels as if tightening up! If anyone has
any information that could help me or
anything for me to suggest to my doctor I
would greatly appriciate it, I would sure
like to be able to finish my senior year
pain free!!

Abdominal Pain 15 Year Old Posted: 12-06-04 10:55am
My daughter has been having recurring
abdominal sharp stabbing pains that come
out of nowhere. They last a couple of
hours and then are gone. She feels sore
and wiped out when it's over. She usually
just goes and collapses and sleeps through
them. We've been doctoring for awhile
now. She's had pelvic and abdominal
ultrasounds, blood and urine tests and
nothing has been found. They've recently
decided to do a ct scan and then on to
scopes if that shows nothing. The cost is
getting enormous and we're finding
nothing. She has normal bowel movements,
eats fine and healthy most of the time.
The worst part though.... Is for her and
this pain..... She misses school and she
hates that(she loves school and her
friends). She's a very happy and social
girl, doesn't drink or do drugs, goes to
church and is very loving. She's a dancer
and in great shape.
I don't know what to do to help her. Has
anyone here ever heard of this type of
pain or have any ideas I could throw past
the docs. Something to look for.
I'm scared...
Thanks for any help anyone can give...

terrible stomach pains and i'm to weak to

going pass out because my legs are so
weak. I lost 25 pounds within a 3 week
period. Any suggestions of what it could
be?

My daughter was 16, and hospitalized twice
within 2 months, the doctors even removed
her appendix, thinking it ruptured, it
turned out, she had a lot of little cysts
on her ovaries, and they were rupturing
setting up infection in her body, she had
to be put on introvenous antibiotics,
before it could be put under control.
Don't take just one doctor's word for it,
you know your body best, and you know when
something is wrong, keep going to
different doctors for other opinions until
you find one that is willing to help you,
even if you have to be hospitalized for
them to do it, and if they take your
appendix, don't worry about it, it just
means you will never feel the severe pain
of appendacitis. My daughter is happy
and healthy and going on 18 on the 18th of
april 2006. Don't let doctors intimidate
you. Good luck!!

Abdominal Pain Posted: 04-04-06 21:25pm
Had lots of blood tests, bowel tests....On
and on with tests for abdominal pain.
Told it was stress when the doctor ran out
of ideas. I stopped eating any food with
gluten in it even though the doctor said
that it was not the problem according to
the test results. Best thing I ever
did....No gluten equalled no more
abdominal pain. Hope this helps someone.

Did they suggest Crohns to you. It won't
show up on alot of the tests they give
you.
Stay away from any dairy products and
gluten. Try some probotics {Cal'dophilus}
before you eat. Ask if anyone in your
family has had crohns, or I.B.S. You have
the same symptoms of my son and Sick Kids
in toronto diagnosed it as severe I.B.S.
.....chrohns
