okay so I tried to find some other with
symptom like mine, I found a few but age
was a major difference. I am having a
severe pain underneath my right rib cage.
It has bothered me for a few years. The
pain normally goes away after a few
minutes, but this morning I woke up and
couldn't sit up, breathe or cough without
the pain becoming unbearable! I have a
huge fear of doctors and hospitals because
of previous experiences so I am tried to
avoid by all means going to the E. R.
Because I know they will have to use many
needles and I will most likely leave there
not knowing a thing because "They don't
know what could be wrong!!" Normally the
pain subsides and I can't continue my day
with no interruptions. Not today! I also
think I may have an over-active bladder,
could this be part of the pain under my
ribs?!? The pain lessens when I shift my
body around in bed but only for a moment
then its just as bad as before. I have
already had my appendix removed, and I
don't think it could be my kidneys because
the pain doesn't go around to my back it
is located in one spot and doesn't
dispense elsewhere. Could I try to sleep
it off or should i rush in to the E. R.
Coughing, talking, laughing. moving,
descending and climbing stairs , even
shifting my weight to the right side
hurts. I would like a few opinions before
I decide what the best course of action
would be!! Please help!
