i had a sudden sharp pain on my right side that i had to stop from walking for about five minutes and wait till it the pain subsides. a couple of hours later, it came back with a vengeance. the pain moves from the right side of my tummy to the left and it became so bloated and discomfort that i can't lie on my back or side cuz of the pain. i can't even burp or fart!!
mom starts rubbing hot ointment hoping that it will help to reduce the discomfort but not much. the next morning i went to see the GP and he immediately sent me to hospital A & E for further check up. he suspected that it could be gall stone. after having blood, urine, xray test done on me, it seems all my vital organs is fine!! the only conclusion is a major muscle spasm. since the xray do not show any sign of gall stone, i was not admitted to the hospital but was given 3 days rest at home plus tonnes of relaxer and pain killers. i do have to come back for check on friday. but what bothers me right now is the pain or should i say discomfort comes and goes and i'm not sure if its muscle spasm cuz the relaxer is not really working.
guess i will have to bring this up when i see the doc again.
i have to admit, i was scared. i don't like hospital and i hate waiting for test results. i can't afford to be sick cuz i have no one else to look after mom.
i'm making an effort to watch what i eat........ sigh... but its soooooooooo hard.. i love food too much!!!

I'm glad you're okay! Gall stones I hear are horrible and the hospital makes you pee into a mesh strainer so they can analyze it when it finally comes out. Glad that's not what you have.
thank you GC!! all 5'11 of me was like a little mush sitting on that hospital bed.
crossing my fingers hope the follow up check up is all good.
hope it's all good man...
