Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Piercing Pain Under And Back Of Rib Cage, Bloating And Pain In Stomach And Lower Back, Fatigue. History Of Diverticulitis, Breast Cancer. Possible Cancer?
I have a severe piercing pain just under and to the back of my right rib cage. I have also been experiencing some bloating and pain in the stomach, pan when sitting down and left lower back pain. I have had diverticulitis in the past and my last colonoscopy over a year ago produce one small polyp which was removed. I have no fever but have been extremely exhausted and weak for some time now. This scares me because my mother and grandmother had colon cancer and I am a breast cancer survivor. I currently don't have a doctor because my doctor quit and I've been unhappy with the care I've received lately, so I've been putting off seeing someone. My temp usually runs low 96.7 - 97 it was 98.1 last night.
Hi, it appears to be the gastritis, along with the gall stones, or pancriatis. I advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have gastroscopy, and U.S.scanning for confirmation. I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe omeprazole, domperidone , and antacid gel for temporary relief. Thank you.
