nbr: don't know what to do about this stomach/back pain

Yesterday I woke up light headed and nauseous. It progressed to my whole body hurting, fever, hot etc but no throwing up or diarrhea. Today woke up and still weak and my stomach and back have sharp pain. Hurts some while laying down and is tons worse when sitting or trying to walk etc. drinking and eating hasn't helped and I have no appetite. Urine isn't yellow so I don't think I'm dehydrated. stomach makes gurgle sounds. I've tried tums and it didn't do anything. I don't know what to do about this stomach/back pain. It's annoying bc I foolishly tried to go to work for a bit yesterday and ended up having hubby come get me bc I didn't want to drive home. Called in today and I'm stir crazy but every time I get false hope and try to get up even to pee I'm in pain. Anyone have this and how long did it last, what did you do for it?

  • Do you have a nurse line you could call? It sounds like a possibly UTI, but I am not a doctor or a nurse.

  • Get it checked out it could be gallstones but that usually kicks in after a fatty meal.  It will take you out though.
  • Where is the pain exactly and what type of pain is it? As PP said, it could be a variety of things, including appendicitis, especially if it gets worse without eating. I wouldn't fool around with it and might go in to the ER if it isn't improving.

  • DH had similar pain and issues right around christmas and was gallstones. He's not a whiner or complainer but he was rolling on the floor in pain from them and even a sip of water or bite of plain bread caused it.

  • I ended up just going to sleep for the night, was going to call doc if still bad today. Back is pretty much better but stomach is still a bit crampy. Yesterday it hurt all over, today seems to be at top of stomach just below diaphragm. Passing gas temporarily helps but I haven't been able to as much as I'd like. Eating has made it worse but it's not sharp so far like it was yesterday and not in my back too.
