Gonna have to see a doctor....

[al2n]

I hate doctors. But I have little choice.

Been having a pain in my upper abdomen the last few days. Directly below the sternum and to the right a bit sometimes. Thinking my gall bladder is trying to tell me something, but I better go and let the professionals tell me what is going on.

I may get lucky and just be having a bout of indigestion or something like that, but this is pretty localized so I fear that I am slowly turning into an old fart.

Did I say that I hate doctors? To the point of near phobia?

Man I hate this.....

Get a picture if it's gall stones.

Good luck, Mike. I wouldn't even wish gall bladder trouble on a Republican like you! ;)

Does it flare up after a meal?

Does it flare up after a meal?

For the most part, yes. Lasts for up to 4 hours after eating. Started off as rather severe pain the other day, but now is just a dull lingering pain. Enough to bother me into looking for a doctor.

Hope you feel better soon

welcome to the club, it only gets worse, for one day you'll be sure you are there.

GL with the medical industry, may your encounter with them be only a glance.

Hope you get to feeling better. Would Gretchen help?

Mike, going thru something very similar myself right now. And I can't tell you how much I hate doctors too. Best wishes and I'll go if you go. :)

5 bucks says gall bladder. It is day surgery now. In at 7am out at noon. You will do just fine.
