Stomach pains with idiopathic cirrhosis

I have been getting really horrible sickly pains in my stomach between my ribs and in my side as well. I feel generally really sick. I have idiopathic cirrhosis diagnosed in 2011. Should I go to my doctor/consultant?

Doctors tmr! Simple! Don't mess with these type of symptoms with this condition, i guess pain on right hand side? might be nothing but get it checked if worsen then 111. Please...

I hope you are feeling better - I have had bad tummy pains due to PBC/AIH/PORTAL VEIN, but of late pain on righthand side deep side, it started off just like a stitch and doctor said is it stress but it isn't. I would ask to speak to your consultant and then if he feels that you go to a clinic then he can tell you. I was told that cirrhosis causes pain because pressing on gallbladder. Its hard work!!!

Yes it is in the middle of my ribs and my ride side as well, but it is on and off mostly, but this is how it was when I was first taken to hospital with it. I haven't been sick with it but I have wanted to because it hurts so much and makes me feel really ill. My consultant has requested that I get my bloods repeated again anyway as one of my enzymes is high so I will ask her about it when I get the results back. Fingers crossed!

Deal with this in earnest. See your consultant and do not be diverted.
