What Causes Severe Pain In The Abdomen And Abnormal Bowel Movements?
Hi, I'm Becca and I had my gallbladder taken out 5 years ago due to vomiting all the time. After the procedure the vomiting continued (right after meals and dairy products) up until I got pregnant may of 2016 and had my baby Feb of 2017. The vomiting completely stopped as if he cured my sickness. But now anytime I eat my sternum/stomach hurt and cramp extremely bad. Right under my bra where your cleavage (center) is, is where the pain starts (and is unbearable when I have a bra or any restraint on) and goes in a straight line down to my belly button. And about where my rib cage starts knot like things appear and cramps begin there as well. Also my stools are never normal I either can't go or can't stop. I was just wondering what it might be.

I have reviewed your query, and here is my advice
The given symptoms of pain, discomfort and cramp in the chest area could be due to acid peptic disease. Peptic ulcer needs to be ruled out, in second thought it could be due to muscular spasm of non-specific origin and it may happen due to wrong posture in sleeping or sitting. So take care of that on a tentative basis. Omeprazole oral tablet can be tried for chest discomfort and other symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query, let me know if I can assist you any further.
