Anyone Else Have This?

Recently with this pain in my lower right side, which hopefully will find out what it is out of 2 things with an ultrasound, I have been more thirsty than normal, is this common?

I'm curious what the 2 things are that the ultrasound will tell you? I get right side pain a lot these days. When I had more diarrhoea it was always left side, so thinking right side might have more to do with constipation and wondering if the constipation makes you feel thirsty.

Don't know about the pain, except I get it at times too. But being thirsty is a key sign for diabetes, especially if you are peeing more as well.

I've been told that I'm borderline diabetes. The ultrasound will show if there's any stones or stuff like that & it's on the 3rd May

All I want is to get to the bottom of this pain as have had it for so long & how to get rid of it

It's fairly common to get right hand side pain with ibd, chrons etc. If your bowel habits are pretty frequent I suggest deoralite it quickly rehydrates you, you would also have to limit your fluids to 1 1/2 litres, remember this just a suggestion,good luck with your scan oh and also coffee and pop is a stimulant for the bowel I suggest water or very diluted juice

Had the ultrasound today, kidneys & gallbladder normal, but he couldn't clearly see the pancreas. The nurse @ my doctors has said it could be a grumbling appendix or something starting with a P & ending with itus
