Is it just wind?

Am I over thinking this?

Is it just one side? If it's on the right, suspect appendicitis - it can radiate pain into the groin. Also possible that it could be kidney stones - or it really could just be wind, fingers crossed.

If you're really worried call 111, they will assess over the phone and give advice.

Just left side!

I'll ring them, thank you.

Just started diet and fitness regime for summer, I don't want to be bloody poorly now!!

Gastro bug? Lots going round at moment

If you've literally just started a new diet and exercise routine, it could be a pulled muscle or just wind/digestive disturbance due to more fibre, different foods etc. Still better to call and make sure though, better safe than sorry. I do hope it's nothing serious.

Been there done that couple of weeks ago Glitter!! Confused

I'm pretty fit anyway so ruled out muscle business but replaced carbs with more veg so I suppose could just be that!!

Thanks I'll ring the 111 peeps.

Left side is your lower bowel - it might just be that you need a massive poo...

Do you have any peppermint tea? It's brilliant for alleviating wind pain.

Madamecastafiore · 08/04/2015 21:07

Off to loo with peppermint tea!

Hopefully no explosions!!

Did you ring 111 OP? Or did your problem take care of itself? Wink

I had this today. Was nothing. was something so huge I was proud and contemplated taking a photo

Hope you're ok op.

Madamecastafiore · 08/04/2015 21:51

Wind abating, sunshine moving in.

Seems was bad case of parps.

Mint tea will be my drink of choice in future.

Off to sleep in spare room.

Cue, me waddling from the room playing a thank you fanfare from my bottom!
