Right Abdominal Tightness

SassyPinkPrincess profile image

Monday 20th July.

I had diarrhoea in the day time, then it stopped around 3pm. I had my tea and went to bed. Woke up at 1:30am in excruciating pains, my right side shooting up to my right shoulder. I couldnt sit up and could barely talk. The ambulance came and took my Obs and everything seemed normal. They wanted me to contact my GP for another ECG as it said Abnormal. I rang my doctor the following morning but he refused to do another ECG.

I developed a tight feeling in my right side which is still there now. Its a very tight uncomfortable feeling but not pain. I went to the Walk in centre and had another ECG and did a urine sample. Plus I had a physical examination of my stomach. They were happy with everything but wanted another ECG doing at the hospital as it said abnormal again.

I went to the AEC had blood tests done and everything came back normal and my ECG got looked over and everything was normal . I had a chest xray and another physical examination of my stomach and they were happy that everything felt and seemed normal.

Just had a call from another doctor and he had looked over my results and said everything is perfectly normal. No one is giving me answers, I don't feel reassured. Why do I STILL have this uncomfortable tight feeling in my right side. I feel off my food and have barely eaten.

Im fed up of worrying ive spoken to so many different people and no one is giving me answers of what the excruciating pain was on Monday night or what this feeling ive been left with is. I'm drained. I'm so fed up.

Omg the same kinda situation happened with me 3 months ago(it still is going on) i felt unbearable pain in my tummy (it was night i was sleeping and woke up in pain) We went to the doctor in the evening they said it might be appendicitis. Pain moved to right side of my abdominal.Soo many tests were run all were okay. Then got to know i had a 2.4cm gaseous cyst which was causing pain( btw i was admitted in the hospital for 5 days after which the doctora thought it’d be okay for me to go home) Then for 2 months we thought it was the cyst. There was a lil improvement in pain but it was still there. Long story short i went through the CT scan even and EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. I sometimes feel like a psychopath now. Don’t even express my pain now. No painkillers work even. Having a really hard time dealing with this one:( The pain isn’t muscular that we’re sure because i’ve had soo many drips/injections of painkillers soo if it was that it would’ve been gone by now. Its not really possible.

I think it sounds like you may have passed a stone(Gallstones) when I had them I also had pain in the shoulder which they call referred pain.They are extremely painful. If you feel your way down to where your rib cage meets, then feel slightly to the right and see if it feels tender.
