Gastritis, Tiny Gallstones, Continuous Left Side Pain Posted: 03-08-07 01:16am
About 9 months ago, I was diagnosed with
mono, and though that has completely
passed, I had stomach pains and upon
endocopy, was told I had mild gastritis
with no sign of H Pylori. I have had
several Catscans all negative, blood/stool
lab tests all negative and have been
prescribed aciphex, How can my stomach do
this all of a sudden and last for so long?
Anyone else had Gastritis without H.
Pylori? Also, I don't drink, don't use
aspirin, and am a 22 year old male in good
shape. Additionally, I have lost 25 pounds
as a result and got tiny gallstones, which
are not in any ducts and are supposedly no
problem and should require no surgery. Any
ideas, suggestions, comments, anything?
I'm starting to get frustrated since, I've
never been sick and never had surgery and
this side pain and digestive issues are
becoming quite a handicap.
that sounds odd, im guessing maybe the
mono weakened you and thats how you got
the gastritis i duno. hopefully the meds
you have are helping, as for the stones i
really hope they do not cause a problem
for you, i have gallstones and omg when u
get a pain attack it hurts soooooooooooo
bad it sucks, so hopefully yours are just
silent stones, id still get regular
checkusp to make sure ur gallbladder
doesnt become inflamed or anything. i wish
i could offer more advice but i dont
really know where to start or what to say
to help in anyway.
