    Severe stomich pains
    I don't know what to do anymore! I have been having extream upper stomich pains, upper back pain, nausious, dizziness, sweats at night not to mention diarea I am always tired all the time with really bad headaches and have been gaining weight over these last 4 months although I am bearly eating and am not pregnant (tubal)? My stomich has swollen twice it's size!
    I have seen my doctor so many times but she won't or can't tell me anything I have even gone to see a specialist but he could not do scope due to I quit breathing under procedure now I am lost and have no where else to go and yet nothing has been done HELP?
    I have been taking anacids & gas meds for a few months now with no help! I also have a large lump over my belly button which my doctor says is a hernia and has been there all my life but for some reason is now visible! She does not want to do surgury. But this is just another problem and not the cause of my pain although it is sore.

    It could just be migrane headaches that cause all of those things, except the breating stopping during the scope.
    Have you been stressed lately? Stress might explain the headaches, not eating, and even the weight gain.
    Have you talked to another doctor if not I'd suggest a second opinion because with symptoms like that it could also be a few other things too- serious things.
    Did they do any tests or anything besides the attempted scope? Maybe they could try and do that again.
    Talk to your doctor and explain your predicament, if they don't help any tell them that your going to find another doctor and that you need your file to transfer to the office.

    Good luck with everything and hope you feel better.

    Thanks so much for the reply
    As for second opinions that is what the specialist was for. But it didn't seem to work out I have severe ashtma so that could be the reason for the stopping of my breathing during scope. Stress lol the story of my life! With 2 girls one with diabeties and the other with a heart condition I laugh at stress!
    But seriously the pain is overwhelming I fear to eat in case the pains grow worse. I thought it might have been my gallbladder but I had an ultrasound and was told it looked fine. I was also wondering about bowl blockage but my doctor apparently didn't think so either. I am so lost
