Hey everyone,

So I just got out of hospital. It was awful I hate being there. I ended up going because I had a sudden severe pain in my upper abdomen and vomited blood. I went to hospital and they said I had gi bleeding, was admitted and had various ultrasounds/sonograms and CT done, which on top of what I had they also found that I had a hemmoragic cyst on one of my ovaries and also they found a mass in my uterus. I was given IV treatments and PPI and Morphine and also had my Asacol while I was there. It seemed to help but now Im still having diarrhea and pain. I wasn't able to eat much and still can't. I tried eating a little but its very painful. I was wondering if anyone has had problems in the upper gi region? I am going for a EGD in a few days and seeing my doctor tomorrow. I had a lot of terribly painful exam , including a rectal exam from a very mean doctor. IT HURT SO BAD!!!!!! anyways... I am home now and glad to be.

It seems like clear fluids is best but I lost about 5 pounds while in the hospital and hope I can get better soon. Does anyone have advice on whats best to eat during this type of problem? I tried soup but hot liquids and even very cold liquids hurt. I tried eating some solids but it seems like it makes my stomach pain and diarrhea worse.

Have any of the women out there had Gyn problems? I am going for a follow and I might need surgery. I hope not though.

Hope everyone out there is good and feeling better. Thanks for reading.

All the best,
Ceci
 
Hello Ceci
Sorry to hear of all the pain and troubling investigations you have endured.
I have had EGD several times for ulcers, which were treated each time with PPI ,
You may need bland foods for now, are you able to drink milk or meal replacements
such as Ensure and Boost? These could help keep up your strengtha little till they sort things out for you.
Hope you will soon be feeling better
Lots of hugs
