Severe Upper Left side Abdominal Pain?
For the past 4 days i been having this annoying pain right in the area of my rib cage, near the base of the rib cage in that area. Pain is sometimes throbbing and sharp then goes away. This has been on and off for almost 2 yrs. 2 yrs ago i had testing done that showed a slightly enlarged spleen, went to the doctor that did all blood work and said he thinks its enlarged from epstein barr virus. i have no other symptoms, no enlarged lymph nodes, no fever. just pain in this area. i have a doctors appt this thurs. i went to the doctor 3 months ago about this and he told me its nothing. What could this be? do u think its my spleen, or another thing. im worried to death and prob making it worse by stressing out so bad. im 24yr old male, in good health. please what can this painful thing be?????
Anthony – your need to put your mind at ease and stop stressing
Do you have insurance? If not go to your ER and not for pain but to have them run tests on you – tell them you have intractable pain.
Carol is right – you need to see a Doctor but I would really consider getting another opinion just to help relieve your stress about this pain.
I would recommend seeing an Oncologist if at all possible – this is just my recommendation –
In the meantime you can go to mayoclinic.com and click on symptom checker – this may help now and in the future
