Hi

Still yet to be diagnosed as you know I’m awaiting a rheumatologist appointment.

Just wondering if anyone gets like a stomach pain not that bad where you can’t eat etc just a dull ache also noticed a little pain left rib but I do use light weights when I work out and wondering if that’s related to that ?

Yeah I’ve sat and googled everything that it could be which I shouldn’t of done but not sure why I’m getting it ?

Haven’t ate anything unusual?

I feel I’m being daft over a tummy pain but I always feel scared no matter what I get.

Hope all’s well none stop rain here in Manchester I prefer the winter spring weather just hate the rain ☔️ 🙈

Hi Natz, what type of pain, may I ask? Could it be bloating?

It’s just discomfort ?

My stomach doesn’t look too bloated and my toilet habits are still the same .

Currently stressed due to very personal issues and have noticed it’s started since then x

Thanks for replying

I wish you all the best Natz, and I hope it soon passes. Hopefully you have a dr appt soon. I would make note to talk to the doctor about it. A lot of our problems, from what I understand, can stem from leaky gut making things worse.

Stress can produce extra stomach acid and gas and acid reflux can be very painful. Try taking an antiacid plus antigas pill and see if that helps until you see the doctor. Make sure to get one that handles both acid and gas since gas bubbles can push stomach acid up into your lower esophagus--reflux-- so you need to treat both acid and gas to get the best pain relief.

Could be IBS. Very common and treatable if it get worse. Your thoughts of it starting about the time you were stressed. That's a good sign. Let your doc diagnose as there are many things it could be.
