I have a medical question for you guys. I did tell my doctor about this and haven't gone to get my bloodwork done yet (bad I know) but I can't find anything online to help me. He pressed on my stomach and didn't feel anything abnormal but...

I keep experiencing bad pain on my ride side. Under my boobs but above my belly button and only on the ride side. It feels similar to when I had a hernia and also similar to being pregnant when the baby puts his feet in your ribs..that's the only thing I can liken it to. It doesn't hurt all the time and some days it doesn't hurt at all. When it does hurt it can be anywhere from an annoying pain to an oh my I can't move at all pain. some times it hurts worse when I cough. I looked up appendicitis but your appendix is near your hips right..and it doesn't hurt that far down..like i said it's under the boobs (barely) and above the belly button and just on the ride side.

any ideas???

I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and I was having pains similar to what you described. Some days it was almost impossible for me to walk. There is treatment options for it, if that is what you have. It isn't something that is life threatening either. I would definately go get that bloodwork done ASAP though! Good luck!!

MomaN...

Does it feel like it is underneath your ribs? Does it go through to your back at times? Gallbladder can be that type of pain.  Have you found out what it is yet? gallstones can be dissolved now without surgery. Even the surgery is alot easier..
