I posted about stabbing pains at waist level left of centre. I've got constant low grade stabbing pains in the one spot and a feeling of wind all the time both up and down. Everytime I eat as the food hits my stomach I get the awful stabbing pains back and then gurgles and wind up and down and sometimes have a bowel motion,then the bad pains go back to the low grade stabbing ones. I am due a colonoscopy in three weeks becasue I have been having wind and bowel issue and pressure feeling around waist since march. I have alread had ultrasounds and sigmoidosocpy and colonosocpy is last test.
I went to Dr this morning who seemed most unconcerend and told me to take IBS meds and see if it settled down she said it sounds like my duodenum is going into spasm.
Because of the pain worsening when I eat or drink I suddenly thought its not my bowel but my stomach and I am now sure and panicking that I have stomach cancer and they are shoving their cameras in the wrong bit of me.
I had an endoscopy 18 months ago that showed only a known hiatus hernia but that was long time ago and anything could have developed since then.
I am going to be brave and go back to my Dr and tell her what I am frightened of and to see if she agrees I need an endsocopy as well.
I have never had pains like this before so am super freaked.
