My Liver

Posted , 7 users are following.

Hello ladies. I went for a physical today and my doctor felt around where my liver is located under right breast and she felt like it was a bit enlarged. I was having pain under that area for some time and i am very concerned. I am scheduled for a ultra sound on Friday. Is this due to menopause. Have any of you had this ? i am scared

    ive never experienced this but a friend of mine had lots of pain in liver area when she was in peri it lasted awhile for her it finally went away but she was also diagnosed with gluten sensitivity. idk if hers was enlarged but she did have ultrasound and all on her liver and gallbladder. prayers for you all will be ok

      my gallbladder aches off and on for a couple of years. when i finally decided to get it out (last year) it was swollen. i didn't have any of the other traditional gb symptoms. maybe its that? and i agree she should have done some blood work.

    instead of her scaring you she should of taken blood work, it would let them know all about the liver, most likely she mistaken possible bloating for maybe liver been slightly enlarged. Did she mention blood work?

    hope forever

    Yes mame I do every single day. it started after a car accident but i think it all has to do with menopause. I have been thru all the test for gallbladder and liver. They say everything is fine. But if i eat anything spicy at all even an herb it will hurt. i have been on prisolec for two years now given by my gastroenterologist. i use to be on other stuff to just did not need it. The prisolec helps. but the best thing for me is stay away from anything spicy ugh. but I know menapause has something to do with it. also it will hurt if my stomach is empty to. just so weird. the ultra sound will not hurt but I know you are worried about other things I've been there also . Also my pain mirrors on the left side too it is scary and it hurts ugh. hang in there if you have any questions let me know dear.
