Having some crazy stomach problems...
Since I was pregnant with my DS over 2 years ago Ive been having annoying stomach problems.
Every now and then I get bad gas (burping and farting ). I feel like i am full even after a small meal and I can hardly eat. I stomach hurts a lot too. But it doesnt hurt on the right side like it supposed to. I hurts all in my upper abdomen. Like its tender to the touch and even hurts when I walk. This week by far was the worst. I even called in sick to work. I have had 2 endoscopies and even a colonoscopy all of which came back fine (I have GERD though). when i was pregnant i had the same problems and i had only gain 7 lbs because I hardly ate. they did a sono of my gallbladder then and It came back good. No other test were done though. Does it sound like by gallbladder?
One doctor told me I should see the gyno and of course googled it and what Im experiencing is a sign of ovarian cancer. Needless to say, I have a gyno appointment tomorrow (i need my annual anyway).
Had anyone had these symptoms and it actually be gallbladder???
ETA: These symtoms last at least a week before subsiding.

YOU MUST READ MY POST FROM A FEW MONTHS AGO http://www.lifamilies.com/chat/topic.aspx?ID=611546&Highlight=sick
Sounds a lot like YOU! So I will tell you where I am at. I have had an endoscopy, CT scan, Hida scan, untrasound on my Gallblatter, a gastric emptying study, 4 stomach biopsies(sp?), bloodwork and a gross stool test And this past monday had a Endoscopic Ultrasound in North Shore Hospital with a new specialist. I have had quite a bunch of test at my gyno too and according to him, I am fine. So this is what I have been told as of Monday. My Hida Scan(tests gallblatter function) shows signs of Galblatter disease. The radioactive stuff they injected in me, never left my gallblatter to go into my small intestine. Indicating either a blockage or loss of function. They also injected something called CCK during this test to stimulate your gallblatter, when they did I had a massive attack of the pain that I get and I vomitted. Again, not always a good sign. The endoscopic ultrasound(which looks at your organs with an ultrasound probe from the inside of your stomach) says all my organs are good. NO blockages, masses etc. The new Gastro Dr(the specialist) says that it looks like Galblatter disease and I need to go see a surgeon. After 3 Looooong years and my regular Gastro telling me that he thought my Galblatter was fine even though I had all these chronic symptoms. The new Dr. says that gallblatter disease is mostly a diagnoses of exclusion because there is not one test that can really show all gallblatter disease. I have had everything from my vagina to my chest, checked and checked again. He does not believe anything else is wrong with me. If you want the name of my new Dr. Let me know. I like him a lot. Good luck to you and I hope this helps.

OMG....what you are going through it nuts. I dont understand why they dont remove your gallbladder since it shows that is not functioning properly. That might be all of your problems.
Do you feel like this every single day?? I get waves of it. Like I will be fine (sort of) and then the next month I will start these problems over again. I feel like I only eat because I have to to stay healthy. lately i never have an appetite. Oh, and the gas is horrible and embarrasing to say the least.
Keep me up to date on your issues. Oh, and I cant believe they forgot to remove a piece of your placenta .

I do gets "waves" of it as well. However, it has become more and more often. My 1st Gastro was super laid back and very conservative. When I went to this new guy, you could tell he was shocked at how long this has been going on. When I get back from vacation, I am going to see the surgeon. I will keep you posted and I hope you get some answers as well. OH and I burp like a man too
