Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood your history of Oophorectomy followed by abdominal cramps.
Yes, you should report urgently to ER for clinical examination, X-ray of abdomen in standing position to see gas- fluid levels classical of intestinal obstruction, stool exam for infection, tests of blood for CBC and electrolytes.
If obstruction or infection is present, you have to get operated.
