  Stomach Cramps? Medical people?

  by RichieRich in

  about 10am this morning i was following my roommate down the interstate (helping him move a few things) and all of a sudden, i had the worst pain i've ever felt in my belly.. the pain was between my nipples and the middle of my belly, but it was all around my body- even that section of my back hurt.

  it felt like someone had tied a very tight band around my torso and was pulling it tighter and tighter.. after being in pain for only about 5 minutes, i had to pull over.

  i jumped out of my car and ran over to the gaurd rail, thinking that perhaps i would vomit.

  Yeah Nos, that's what I'm afraid of - wasting a bunch of time to just end up getting a big shrug of the shoulders.

  I always end up getting a bunch of dumb comments at the doctors office / hospital, so I try to avoid it.

  I'm just completely confused because I have really isolated symptoms... and nothing seems to be wrong...

  but I will be called a buddy who's wife is an RN shortly.

  Thank you for your pm shelley.

  The pain now is subtle, like my muscles are just fatigued.

  The pain was equal throughout that band of my body.

  I'm not constipated.

  And I don't have a fever or feel nausous.

  I really don't want to go to the Doctor- everyone wll be there because its monday, and if I go to the ER, I'll be put on a back burner since I'm no longer in serious pain and I'm not bleeding.

  About 10am this morning I was following my roommate down the interstate (helping him move a few things) and all of a sudden, I had the worst pain I've ever felt in my belly.

  The pain was between my nipples and the middle of my belly, but it was all around my body- even that section of my back hurt. It felt like someone had tied a very tight band around my torso and was pulling it tighter and tighter.

  After being in pain for only about 5 minutes, I had to pull over. I jumped out of my car and ran over to the gaurd rail, thinking that perhaps I would vomit. My body didn't want to vomit and I did feel compelled to do anything with bowels- the pain was all inside me. I tried sitting down on the guard rail , but I found that standing was the best thing.

  My roomate pulled over too, and he gave me a bottle of water which was mostly frozen, so I sipped down as much of that as possible, and held the bottle to my head.

  I decided I needed to keep my torso straight and elongated, seeing as how that was what hurt the least- so I reclined the seat in my car and proceeded to lay there for about 45 minutes until I felt like I could finish the drive the 20 mile drive home.

  I got home and immediately laid down on my bed and stretched out with my arms above my head. I did deep breaths, 3 seconds in, 3 seconds out (tattoo trick- hahah) and eventually put myself to sleep.

  I slept for about an hour and a half and since I am awake now, I still have some soreness in what is I assume my diaphragm? and it hurts to cough or dramatically expand or contract my stomach.

  So what really scared me was this was easily some of the worst pain ever. And I've done some incredibly painful things- but this seriously almost broke me.

  I've tried to diagnose via WebMD and such, but it doesn't seem to tell me much. lower pain would signal an organ being out of sync, but pain this high is hard to explain.

  So here's the deal- I'm overweight but I eat healthy. I only drink one soda a day. All my body functions are regular. I have had a sinus infection / cough thing going for just at a week now, but its seriously almost on its way out.

  Does anybody know what just happened? Its not menstrual pain, its not my sickle cells, its not heartburn....

  Also, kudos to Kraig, the world's best roomate with the world's worst hair.

  To feel you "can"

  by Mysterious in

  what a remarkable feeling on leaving the organization, and yet a bizzare one.

  to have the feeling that you "can" do anything you want.

  that there is time, energy and resources to devote to achieving the goals you set out for yourself.

  I like knowing that I can do whatever I want without fear of offending anyone. I was made to feel so tense around everyone i was afraid to cross any lines or step outside of the box.

  Now, I speak my mind, and people worry about displeasing me instead of vice versa.

  I can be completely narcissitic, and everyone else can go to hell.

  Its a beautiful feeling.

  I work in a laboratory by day, and I have my laptop with me almost everyday ( for making spreadsheets and sending work emails, of course).

  I read a lot more than I post know, I like being like God- knowing everything but not really interfering.

  By night I'm at the piercing shop, so depending on client traffic and hijinks, I may or may not post while there- as any spare time is usually burned up on myspace, facebook, IAM, and AIM.

  don't worry you can tell us here- no one knows your true identity.

  i can make vodka out of water.

  and wine out of water, though vodka out of water is a little more in demand in certain circles.
