What Causes Persistent Intense Pain In The Abdomen?

Posted on Thu, 20 Oct 2016

Question: I am having abdominal YYYY@YYYY . I went to the emergency room last night, but since I had begun throwing up, they gave me fluids along with pepcid and phenergan in the IV. My pain began, 3 days ago, before I ever started vomiting. When I called them back today, they suggested ibuprofen every few hours, although the nurse said not to take pain medicine. I am slightly nauseous and do not desire to eat.
This did come after a greatly stressful day in my college class and I do have IBS issues. I have not had any flare ups of this sort in quite some time. Crohn's, etc. has been ruled out by a gastroenterologist.
Help. The pain is immense.
