Looks Like a Visit to the ER tonight

[LindaS]

I had a colonoscopy and upper endoscopy on Tuesday. All day, I've had a pain on the left side of my navel. It has been getting worse all day. It doesn't even go away after passing gas, but it does get slightly better temporarily. I am starting to feel light headed, too. I am waiting for my husband to get home to figure out a ride. I don't want to go, but I know it is the right thing to do. I hope it is just trapped gas, but I don't want to take a risk.

I hate going to the ER

Hope it ends up being just gas! Better safe than sorry with the trip to the ER!!

Please let us know how you make out!

Good luck Linda! I hope you get some relief soon.

Awe Linda, I hope it isn't bad, or a blockage. Please let us know you are ok! :ghug:

It turned out after I called my GI, she said I can take some vicodin and try a heating pad. If it gets worse, I am to call her back. I am so glad I don't have to go to the ER. I am still having pain, but the vicodin is helping. She said if I spike a fever or the pain suddenly spikes, I need to book it to the ER.

Thanks for the update!
Hope you settle, I just took tylenol #3 1.5 and waiting for it to kick in...on my days .

Heating pads do help and if you can lay on your right side and left leg over the right. If it is gas it will pass. I have had gas and bloat and I toot and all it does is make room for more pain. Hope you are ok.
