Any thoughts? So much pain! :( So I am going to call my doctor and try to get in for an appt today. But while I'm waiting I thought I'd ask you guys/girls!
Yesterday afternoon I started feeling really yucky. I started getting heartburn and abdominal pains. I made it through work, went home and it goes worse. I took 3 tums and laid down and ended up not getting up all night. I was in so much pain and I didn't eat anything since noon yesterday. However I had 2 string cheese sticks yesterday. I suspect that I'm mildly lactose intolerant but never had a problem with the string cheese, although I never ate 2 in one day. I felt like I was going to throw up pretty much all afternoon and evening yesterday too. I was getting the chills (goosebumps) with every flash of 'pain' in my stomache.
I am also suspecting that I might have a UTI.
So I fell asleep around 830pm on the couch and around 1015pm I got up and went to bed, still in severe pain. Oh yeah, took 3 more tums. I fell asleep and slept through the night, but did get up 3x during the night. This morning though, my abdomen is very tender, almost like I did 3,000 crunches and I'm still in pain. No more heartburn but I haven't eaten until a 1/2 a banana 10 mins ago.
I never go to the doctors but I think that with this pain STILL here I should go.
Anyone lactose intolerant and get symptoms like this? Any advice?
