I'm in alot of pain. Pain in the whole stomach and in the back.

Just been miserable today. Gonna see my GI doctor tomorrow to see what going on. I hope it nothing serious. Any ideas what could be going on or any ideas to help with the pain.

Tami,

Did you eat or drink anything today or yesterday, that you normally don't eat or drink?

The pain could be due to bloating, (if you have bloating). I'm not sure if anyone else has pain with MC, (without bloating), but as best I can recall, anytime I had pain, I was bloated.

If the pain is up just under the ribcage, slightly to the right of center, and you can feel it all the way to your back, it could be due to gallbladder disease. The gallbladder is located near the outlet of the stomach, (known as the pyloric sphincter). Here's an image:

I have chronic pain and have been in the ER many times because the pain was "too" much.

What medications are you on?

I'm on Lialda that I take twice daily. I saw my doctor today and he said all the pain I'm having is from the doxycycline took over the weekend for bronchitis.

He told me light to bland diet, pepto, activa yogurt and plenty of fluids. he said i should feel better next week.
