تم تقييم هذه الإجابة:
Hi, I often get pain which feels like it's in my stomach under my ribs, sometimes it's really painful and can last from 10 minutes to over 30. There seems no reason that can cause this, sometimes I think it is sugar other times I do not eat any sugar. I am in my early 60's and have had this for over a year. It comes and goes, sometimes it causes my urine to be dark in colour other times I get a headache afterwards and feel thirsty. Each time is slightly different, please can you give me any idea what it might be? Thank you.....Carole.B.
Doctor's Assistant: Have you seen a doctor about this yet? What medications are you taking?
No I haven't seen a doctor as I am not sure how to discribe it. I have been taking an essential vitamins with prebiotics hoping it would help. I didn't have any pain since last year, yet in two weeks it has happened twice.
Doctor's Assistant: Anything else in your medical history you think the doctor should know?
It started after I had COVID I believe, not sure it is connected though. Otherwise I don't have any other health issues.
