What the heck is this??

Something really weird is happening to me. I’m going the doctors tomorrow I think but it’s just so hard to explain. Anyone had this....?

On three separate occasions now, and at random, I’ve started to feel like the beginning of trapped wind. Like a tightening just under where my bra sits. It’s slowly, over the course of say an hour, got worse and worse, to the point I feel sick, I am writhing in pain it hurts to lie down, it hurts to walk and the back pain.... sweet lord is like being in labour again.

I have to breathe through the pain like I’m in labour too. The pain ends up literally from under my boobs, all around my front and back right down to my belly button.

The first time it lasted about 30 mins, the second time about 20 mins and this time it’s still painful after five hours and I’m lying here on a hot water bottle to ease my back.

What the bloody hell could it be?

OMG I have had this about 3 times also, could actually pas out with pain then it just goes. I never even considered gallstones. Thanks for posting

Gallstones just didn't occur to me at all. Thanks everyone. I've just read up online and it sounds identical to the symptoms I've had. At least I can explain a bit better to the doctor tomorrow.

Yep Lady, me too. The pain is that bad I start sweating and feel like I could faint.

Sounds like gallstones to me. Go to the docs - I always felt weird as by the time I got to the doctors, the pain had gone and it didn't hurt anymore.

But it was bad enough on two occasions for me to end up in hospital so please get it checked out sooner rather than later - it does have complications as stones could get trapped in the ducts and could cause pancreatitis which is very serious 👍

Absolutely sounds like gall stones. Good luck st the docs!
