I have had 4 babies, various operations etc but this pain has made me cry.
I've had a virus, I think with a few mild stomach pains and diarrhoea for a week but was feeling loads better on Thursday and we went out for a meal. As soon as I'd finished the pain started. By the time I got home I could hardly speak and was nauseous. Managed to sleep in the end, felt ill and weak all day yesterday , slept on and off all day. Went to gp who said gastritis gave me domperidone for nausea, omprazole (sp) for acid and buscopan
I ate a small sweet potatoe and some mushrooms and bacon at 5 pm and the pain increased again untill I was beside myself and crying. This is not like me. I was once accused of pretending not to be in pain to be discharged from hospital , by a consultant. I can handle pain but this was terrible.
I phoned 111 about 8 pm and he said it sounds like an ulcer. Told me to take gaviscon and codine. If no better in an hour to go to a&e.
it reduced the pain from about 9 to a 4-5 so I tried to sleep.
This morning it's back to a nagging dull pain, more manageable , but I still feel like crap.
Please will someone tell me how to cope with this? And what the hell to eat?
I'm really not a wimp, honest.
