What Causes Fluttering Sensation In Stomach On Left Side?

I have been having a feeling of fluttering or twinges in my stomach on the left side. It almost feels like when I was pregnant and the baby would move around a little. Like a quivering except there is no sign of a movement like when I was pregnant, only the feeling that goes with it. I am 45 years old, have had a complete hysterectomy so I know pregnancy is out of the question. What else could be causing this feeling?

hi
thank you for asking your concern madam and welcome to HCM. first i would like to ask you whether you are taking any medicine recently? if yes and stopped then i would suggest you to wait for some time as it may be a gastritis os hypermotility due to drugs. any how you can take tablet ranitidine one tab twise a day empty stomach for 3 to 4 days. if your motions are normal then no need of any other drugs. if constipation is there then you can take 2 tab of dulcolax while sleeping for only one day. if this is troubling so much then you must visit your doctor and he can prescribe some relaxant.
feel free to ask any doubt madam
regards
dr. Abhijit
