Googled and now thinking liver "c"

[illgetthere]

I have a pain in my back left hand side under my ribs it's a full ache and its been there about 2 months I have got a hiatus hernia and do suffer severe reflux so could this be the cause of the pain? I did have a full blood count about 4 weeks ago and all was fine would it show if something was wrong with my organs??

Yes there would be markers in the blood tests to alert the doctors.

Also your liver is on the right.

Blood tests show an amazing amount to a doctor, I can speak from experience I have had loads and loads of them and used to refuse to believe that they meant anything at all, they are a good indicator of general health my GP told me. Also your liver is not on the left it is on the right.

Sorry just noticed Nic had just pointed out where the liver is!

Could it be kidneys? Or pancreas? I don't want to go to the doctors she's going to think I'm an idiot x

Why would the doctor think you are an idiot? If you have a pain, it is best to ask the doctor what it could be. I have reflux and I get a lot of random pain mainly under ribs at the front. :flowers:

I recently changed doctors and she knows why I changed and wants me to take anti depressants and thinks its all in my head so I don't want to go and say something else x
