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

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.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
