Stomach Hurts

[sillygirl]

This has been going on the last two days now. When I woke up this morning, I was hungry. I didn't have much time to eat, but I grabbed a little bit and then ate my sandwich at work early for lunch. Now my stomach hurts. It doesn't feel like I am hungry, more just pains. This happened last night too. I thought eating would help both last night and today, but it doesn't. It hasn't made it any worse, but it hasn't made it any better. It hurts higher up in my stomach, like a few inches under my ribs, but today it seems to be travelling lower. It did go away last night while I was sleeping, but it's back now. I also am starting to get a sore throat.


What do you think it is? Am I getting sick with something? If so, what? I don't understand why I would have a sore throat! May be I am just not eating enough and it is causing stomach acid? But I don't feel hungry now at all. I thought I was before I ate, but maybe it wasn't hunger, maybe it was just the pain starting. That was about an hour and a half ago. I am tired of feeling like this. Surprisingly I am not really panicking, just tired of feeling this way. I want to feel better now. What should I do?

anything under the ribs for me, has always been gas...
and it often frequently travels either down, or up..
(as it usually wants to come out)
rub around your belly a little..under your ribs..
massage all over and see if you cant burp for awhile.

Maybe the baby is starting to push up on your stomach. It could be causing indigestion. Try drinking some milk to coat your stomach.

i feel exactly like you all the time....i think it is a combo of my IBS and acid reflux....most of the time i panic, but that makes it worse.

I don't have any milk here (I'm at work) but I just kept eating and at the moment I feel better. I think I just need to be eating a lot more now. For a while I really had no appetite, but now I think I have to eat about 4 times what I used to. I have also been a little stressed, so I am trying to keep the stress level down too. I could also use some more sleep!
