Am In Agony

[nailedit]

Long story short, my sister ended up taking me to A&E on Tuesday as i was in a lot of pain in my right rib cage and finding it hard to breathe. Had bloods and CT scan and then saw a really obnoxious doctor yesterday morning who told me that there was nothing wrong with me and discharged me. He made a big deal about the fact that I have a drink problem but I wasnt there because of drink, I was there because I'm in a lot of unexplained pain.

 

They told me what ISNT causing the pain (liver, pancreas etc) but havnt told me what IS!

 

Just taking loads of pain killers and a hot water bottle on my ribs.

What the hell am I supposed to do if the hospital have discharged me?

If the pain miraculously clears and then comes back again at random it may be Gall Stones. That is agonising and painkillers do not help.

If it's trapped wind it will respond to windeeze (simeticone)tablets from the chemist, add mint and fennel herb tea (one teabag of each brew for at least 5 minutes) if that doesn't work call 111 back, and say you have tried everything.  Just because you have any form of substance abuse you still should be taken seriously.  Especially if they have already ruled out liver and pancreas problems.

I would phone 111 and tell them exactly what you have told us. They will direct you to the  best place that will help you. Good luck 🤞
