My PCP and surgeon at local hospital were sure I had gallstones. I ended up in ER 3 times. Finally, the bigger hospital in the area did ultrasound, x-ray, and CT scan. I did not have gallstones at all, I had an obstruction in my small intestine. Worse pain in my life. I begged for surgery after 30 hours in pain.
The surgeons ended up controlling the pain and put a NG tube from nose to stomach for 3 days. Total 4 days in hospital, no food or water. That fixed the problem, back to eating, but smaller meals. I do not want this to happen again. I personally think this happened from a crazy abdominal exercise I was doing. Twisting and extending abs to strengthen for back. They said from old scar tissue.
Has anyone had this?
