Pain In Stomach

I keep getting these pains in my stomach closer to my left side and it hurts like hell I'm just wondering if anyone has ever experienced this and if so did you find out what it was! I'm scared to death that I have a blockage or that my bowels are twisted! Any help would be appreciated!

I had the same and went in for a EGD and had scar tissue causing a slight blockage and they also found a peptic ulcer. I am on nexium and carrifiate and my doc dilated my opening to my stomach. I feel so much better. Still occasionally have pain but all in all better. I would contact my doctor. Hope this helps.

I've been having the Mae problems . I called my doctor this am she told me it might be the beging of an ulcer and told me to take my Prilosec twice Adam instead of once and if it doesn't go away in a month to call her cause it might be my gallbladder she didn't seem very concerned at all.. To bad I am very concerned lol

My pain isn't in my pouch it's in my belly like my bowels!!

Did u call the doctor I've heard of people getting obstructions in their bowels. Maybe take a laxative

Yeah they asked me a million and one questions I just had a bowel movement yesterday and I've been passing gas lol tmi I know! So idk what this pain could be from!

I had pain just like this and had surgery on 2-29-12 to fix a twisted bowel and Remove the scar tissue that formed. I was home the next day and back to regular activities in three weeks. Back to normal food in two weeks. I know it is scary I was throwing up for two months with it. My doctor did upper GIs and scopes to check just about every week before they found it. Hope you feel better soon and they find what is going on.

Yep much better dr said it was probably muscle pain from working out a lot and I also went to the NASCAR race the day before the pain started happening so I truly believe that it was muscle pain!

Hey I was searching for stomach pain and saw your post and was wondering you the pain you were feeling went away when you ate? That has been happening to me and I don't know what it is.
