Hi I remember some symptoms from about 5-6 weeks ago. I had a course of antibiotics for acne, I had bloating, wind, and loss of appetite for about a week. I stopped the antibiotics after a week due to this. The bloating and wind have gone but the loss of appetite remains. I am about 8 stones over weight so my stomach is large anyway, it doesn't feel hard at all. I can't feel any lumps etc but don't think I could anyway. I can eat when I know its time to eat but I don't feel hungry. Two days ago I was walking around tesco, (I usually get a home shop) and at the end I felt pain in my lower right pelvic area/groin. This has dulled right down and nearly gone now but feels more like a burning pain now. I have no bleeding or discharge. I am concerned that what I thought was side effects of the pills I was on could of been something else, and also the appetite hasn't come back yet. I googled loss of appetite and pelvic pain and this brought me here. I went and have booked a private ultrasound for tomorrow as I am worried over this. Has anyone else had experience of this and what should I expect at the ultrasound?.
