Pain In Liver, Muscle Pain, Depression, Constipation. History Of Hepatitis B. Suggest Something

Hi,

My name is Elena, I am 46 years old, 5 ft and 3 inches tall, and weight 164 lbs.

I have this sharp pain in my left mid side of my body, and also, feel bloated, constipated, have depression, and my muscles are aching. I have been off work for over two months, but today I fell so sick; I am taking some medication for depression, anxiety, but it is a low dosage; I don't know what it is, also I feel a pain in my right side of my body, where my liver is, I can feel it a little enlarged.. I had hepatitis B when I was 12 years old.

I do not smoke, and had no drinks for over two months. please advise. Thank you.

Hello,

Thanks for posting on HCM,

From your description, it is obvious your are having a digestive problem which could be coming from the liver and/or gall bladder and either associated to dyspepsia/indigestion. Well, chronic hepatitis B could be the main cause of your problem (and at this stage might have become complicated).
How ever, it would be difficult to tell what you have exactly without you going to see a doctor to completely evaluate you by doing physical exams, running some laboratory tests and abdominal scan so as to determine exactly what you maybe having.

Hope this helps
