I’ve just started getting stomach pain and tenderness, burping and lost about 1,5 kg in a month. Having scan, bloods, urine and pop tests but very frightened.
Anyone any advice?
Hi Caleta
I have no medical experience but the symptoms you describe could be caused by a number of medical issues, many of which are easily treatable. You are having all the necessary tests to diagnose your problem which is very important.
I know you must be scared and perhaps thinking the worst and I am very sorry that you are going through this. Easier said than done but try to keep an open mind and not fret too much until the results of those tests are in and you know exactly what you are dealing with.
Having found yourself at this site I can only assume you think you may have cancer. I pray that you don’t but if that is shown to be the case, this forum is a great place for support and advice from those who have experienced this.
I have my fingers crossed that your diagnosis is one which is easily treatable.
Thank you - your email is very helpful. Sadly i am a natural pessimist which is a pain in a situation like this.
Hi. I hope you don’t mind me asking, did your doctor find out what was wrong with you as my husband is having similar symptoms
Mine turned out to be a neurological condition which contributed to the abdominal issues.
i also had neck pain which no one realised was connected initially
