hi guys
am feeling scared at the moment, for nearly 2 weeks now i have had pain below and behind my left and right rib cage, the pains goes around into my lower back and also into my lower abdo, im getting very scared, i have been doc and he says its prob a virus due to my on going stomach problems, they think i have a stomach ulcer, im worrying now because im wondering if it is gallstones, my doctors are very reluctant to do any tests had to phone up and beg Friday afternoon for a ref for Barium, which i only got because i said i would go private and have it done!
I read on the internet about ibs this morning, as i have been getting lots of gurgling all around the tummy, feeling like i need the toilet and have had a bit of wind, the symptoms also included rib pain, i dont know wether to tkae myself off to urgent care centre and demand an ultrsound of gall bladder or wether to leave it, i have also had a burning pain in between my shoulder blades on and off now for 3 or more weeks but i dont know if this is the anxiety, i sometimes think it comes on after or when im eating but i dont know if thats just my mind playing with me, i also keep feeling like im swallowing lumps all the way down to my stmach hence the barium, any advice or help would be greatly received im scared.
