Why do I wake up with abdominal pain every day

Posted , 28 users are following.

Every morning I wake up with left abdominal and back pain, it's located between my spine around to my navel. The pain is in the exact same place every morning and wakes me from my sleep, iv had it for 6 years now had various tests and nothing has helped. I get depressed too and I think it's linked to waking up in agonising pain every day. It gos away once iv been up and about for an hour or so, and it's only in a morning I get it. If I take a deep breath it becomes a sharp throbbing pain... I have also recently after 4 years of telling my doctor I have endometriosis, been diagnosed with endometriosis!!! Could it be affecting my bowels? I am lost as to what options I have left, and swing in roundabouts of depression because of it!! Please help

    I am a 38 y/o female. I have been a RN for 10 yrs. I was dx with endometriosis & had a full hysterectomy 10 yrs ago. I wake up every morning and my stomach feels like I have taken a beating! It is a sore type pain. It will be gone about an hr after I wake up but will wake me up at times. Please update if you get new info.

    I forgot to mention that at times throughout the day when I bend over I have what I believe is a hernia over my gallbladder that will protrude but will go away when I straighten out. The soreness is located in my upper abd right below my ribs

    If the endos attach to your bowel, this can cause bowel problems.

    For a long time i have been waking up with a pain on my right side progressing over to my left. It disappears on waking and movement.

    I believe , i could be wrong that it is liver related or even kidney, but liver maybe.

    I used to drink heavily, but not addicted or drunk.

    The liver has no feelings i gather, and at night it becomes hard, the pain felt by other organs.

    When waking up and movement it unfreezes the liver and the organs do not hurt.

    Maybe try a detox, milk thistle, and avoid anything the liver has to fight against eg fatty food as well.

    God bless

    I hope what you have cures as its no fun.
