Tummy ache for nearly a week

[kirstynic]

Hi

Last Monday I woke in the morning feeling ok, within an hour I felt very nauseous and was over the sink heaving - although nothing came out. During the week I had bouts of this nausea occurring daily. However from Tuesday my tummy pain started - it is on the left side and stretches from the lower tummy to near the ribs and even round the back - it makes me feel sick although I can eat and drink and haven't been sick. Further to this I have been losing weight 5lbs since November although a 1lb will come back on and then be gone the next day- but I hit a low for me the other day as the scales went under 9st.

I recently saw the doctor about something else and my iron level was low - he said its probably due to heavy periods. However this constant tummy ache - and it is constant it doesnt go and I even feel it in the night when I get up to go to the loo. I am worrying its cancer - the pain - the low iron - the weight loss and general feeling of being not right really is worrying me.

Has anyone else had anything similar?

I am 30 and finished my period a week ago so know its not that.

Thank you for reading

I am having similar issues! This happened about three weeks ago. I had severe constipation and was doubled in pain. Afterwards, I had been experiencing left back and rib discomfort and pain since! I am going through a chemical pregnancy at the moment but I don't think it is related to that as I have had it for three weeks, so I wasn't nowhere near pregnant then. I have been having heartburn and continually burping and erm.. Farting :whistles:

I had blood tests which came back all normal, so I have no idea. However, I have been Googling something about H.Pylori which seems like it is related to our symptoms! PLEASE DON'T GOOGLE. Just go doctors and ask for a breath test for H.Pylori. That is what I am doing this week. It is very uncomfortable feeling :(
