hi. i am new to this website. my name's vicky i'm 23 year old mother of 2. my husband is ian. The problem started in july when i had severe upper stomach ache, doc rushed me to hospital thinkin galstones, i had ultrasound and x rays and everything was ok. went back to docs and he said stomach acid and he'd refer me for endoscope. that took 2 months of which i was xconvinced i was dying, feeling spaced out and dizzy the whole time. endoscope showed inflammation which explained chest pain and stomach pain. i still feel dizzy and spaced out, new doctor has done more blood tests due results this week. Also doctor noticed i have a pulse in my tummy(i always have and thought this was normal) but he seems concerened and has referred me for ultrasound. Any advice would be very welcome, Thanks in advance

i did too, i always have had it u can see my stomach go up and down about 2 inches above my belly button(when u read about heartbeat in belly) u end up with loads of information on anyrusm which is worrying anyway but my great gran died of one(though granted she was in her 80s and i am only 23). I am sure my previous ultrasound would have picked up on this, but i feel so panicky and very emotional. I have flu and chest infection at moment as does my daughter so thats prob not helping.
