Hi everyone, I am extremely worried, I have been really really ill for almost 4 weeks now, I have lost 20lbs in weight, I can’t eat or drink without absolutely excruciating pain. I have been to the ER twice in 2wks for IV fluids and pain meds. I had an mri last Friday but the results are not available yet. I am diagnosed with IBD but still not sure if I have Crohns or UC, the mri should help with that. My pain is usually crampy and all the usual symptoms of diarrhoea with blood etc. but this last 4wks it’s been different, I started off with an extreme pain upper abdomen under ribs, straight through to the back and into my left shoulder blade, over the weeks it has settled into the middle and right, back and shoulder blades. It can come on out of the blue but it is absolutely triggered by eating and drinking and it’s only getting worse, I’m finding it hard to manage more than a sip of water or juice here and there. I am really nauseous and have been throwing up foam and bile. I am really worried there’s a blockage? Would these be symptoms? I don’t have a gallbladder so definitely not that, the ER think it could be pancreas related but my labs aren’t showing anything that way. I am really scared and desperate and don’t feel listened too. I’ve been chasing my mri results all week and the secretary has told me they’re on my doctors desk but he hasn’t looked at them yet! I would love some help and insight if anyone would be so kind. Thank you xx
