Indigestion? Heartburn? Trapped wind?

Sounds like one of those to me, they can be VERY painful. Try some antacids

Kidney infection? Does it really hurt when you press it?

RTKangaMummy · 02/02/2005 12:23

colditzmum · 02/02/2005 12:24

With the feeling sick, it definatly sounds like a kidney infection!

RTKangaMummy · 02/02/2005 12:28

does it hurt to wee?

colditzmum · 02/02/2005 12:28

You need to go to the doctor, kidney infections can get out of control quite quickly. In the meantime drink half a pint of water every hour at least, every half hour if you can hack it.

Have you seen any blood in your urine? If you have, you need to see a doctor today.

I have not had any medical training bTW, but I have had a kidney infection before, and they sneak up on you really rfast.

RTKangaMummy · 02/02/2005 12:29

I am not medical either

They would have made you feel like a time waster if you were losing your kidneys out of your @r$e, that's why dr's employ them. Silly cow doesn't live your life, who is she to say what you should and should not have done! Her only qualification is an ability to us a computer, and an (assumed!) skill in keeping her mouth shut!

RTKangaMummy · 02/02/2005 12:48

hope the doctor is helpful

the receptionists are there to help you NOT for you to help them
