Stomach Pains

Posted , 4 users are following.

Does anyone have stomach pains? I did a GI gut test and found overgrowth of bacteria in gut , don't know if the pain is from this or peri? I also had an appt with my gastro dr and she wants me to do a ct scan and bloodwork, but i am so freaking out about it. I have really bad health anxiety. Though the dr who did the gut test said the bacteria will cause pain and make one feel awful. Just wondering if anyone else experience pain in the stomach. This is a new symptom.

    I went through a stage where I had very intense stomach pains during the night. I am a very heavy sleeper and they would wake me up.

    They hurt! I dont seem to have them anymore

      They were everywhere from under my ribs to under my belly button. very intense during night hours, but my bowels always move first thing in the morning, so perhaps if I were an afternoon pooper they might have been during the day. I don't know.

      This peri stuff is scary at times. Thank goodness I am a heavy sleeper! I have also woken up thinking I am having a heart attack at times, chest and back pains that run to my shoulders and arms. Luckily I can usually just turn over and sleep again but a couple of times I have gotten up and taken a hot shower, figuring that if it didnt settle maybe I should go to the emergency room. I havent yet though.

      very strange this time of life.
