Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have lower right quad. abdominal pain. it has been going on for 3 years. I ve had pelvic ultra sound, a colonoscopy and doctors cannot give me a real diagnose. my blood work and everything else comes out fine. what could this be? I feel I have a growth that is attacking my lower intestines to my hip bone I am 56 years old by the way.
Hi. Thanks for your query. 3 years is a long time to suffer from abdominal lower right quadrant pain in female patient of 56 years. Since the colonoscopy, blood tests and ultrasonography are normal, we have to think differently. This may not be a growth attacking the lower intestines to your hip bone.
I would advise you the following: CT scan of the whole abdomen a sit will give more detailed information than the ultrasonography can give. Review colonoscopy. Diagnostic Laparoscopy in doubtful cases help a lot for diagnosis and therapy too .
If all the investigations are normal, then a diagnosis and treatment on the basis of IBS, meaning Irritable Bowel Syndrome can be done. And help you to get alright.
