Left sided abdo pain

4 replies

Been having this on and off for months. Low on the left, almost like period cramps. Moves around a bit at times.

I am 54, post menopause so not related to that. I have had normal blood tests, a pelvic scan and upper ab scan. All normal.

It comes and goes. Sometimes don’t have it for weeks but have had it since Friday now.

I have no weight loss or problems with bowel movements. Doctor thinking it’s IBS but surely that doesn’t go on for days? Or does it?

Any ideas?

Ibs has flairs and it can last for weeks sometimes. Although there usually are other symptoms.

Are you doing any exercise or have you noticed it’s after you eat a certain thing?

Do you feel well within yourself?

Thanks so much for replying.

I have Coeliacs disease but problems related to gluten exposure don’t usually last this long. It’s very painful. Been sent for blood tests.

Have you changed your diet to accommodate this? It really can make all the difference.

You’re obviously feeling discomfort and it’s happening for a reason
