What's wrong with my stomach :(

Please can someone offer any advice at all? I'm currently miles from home at a family event until Sunday.

Since Tuesday I've been feeling sick. Every time I eat it gets worse straight away after, then a dull ache in the left side of my stomach.

TMI but after a bowel movement which is not diarrhoea I do feel slightly better but within a few hours I'm back to feeling sick or it's just not as bad.

Really at my wits end but can't get to dr til Monday.

Does anyone know if there is anything over the counter I could try ?

Thank you

Possibly buscopan? It’s an antispasmodic so it will just relieve any cramping. It won’t stop you from going to loo and it won’t make you go to the loo. Get it checked out though as soon as you can. X

Is it worse after fatty or creamy good? Could be gallstones

Do you mean left side of your stomach or abdomen?
Stomach is under your ribcage.
Are you hicupping or belching a lot?

Buscopan, a hot water bottle and a cup of green tea are my best home remedies. Plus any random YouTube anti nausea/stomach ache relaxation thing I can find to listen to.

Gallbladder issues can cause problems after eating any kind of meal. you really need to see a GP.

Left side is below rib cage and probably just higher than belly button.

Burping more than normal and also had heart burn on a couple of occasions.

Can't really pin point if there is a particular food as I have eaten a variety of different meals in small amounts and makes no difference! X

Could be pancreatis. Only a doctor would know.

Google giardia lamblia.

But you could talk to a local pharmacist, keep an eye out for any change in stools, and see GP as soon as you get home.

Thanks for all the comments. I'll see if I can speak to a pharmacist in the morning and get some of that medication too

I've just recently been feeling like this for the past week seemed to stop yesterday morning I'm nearly 19 weeks pregnant so was putting it down to pregnancy but midwife didn't seem to think so. I don't know if it was a bug or some sort as I had a really bad night Thursday with it felt shocking thought I was going to be sick, forced myself to sleep and I've not felt it since Confused

I did start drinking gaviscon though on Thursday so not sure if that helped
