Gastric gas

by kylsgrl1901, Jun 06, 2009 04:19PM
I had GBS about 3.5 years ago. It went fine and I have been great until about 6 weeks ago. I started having those"gas pains" that you get under your ribs. It's only on the left side, where my stomach now is. It started at about 1-2 times week then has progresssed to about 2-3 times a day. The pains are very sharp and I can't breath in or move to get relief because it's just too painful. It doesn't matter if I'm hungry or full, walking or sitting, My diet hasn't changed and neither have my bowel habits. The pain will many times run up into my shoulder. I have tried gas relief products, and everything else I can think of. Sometimes it feels like its "twisted' in there and when I am finally able to move a little, it straightens out. I don't ever have heartburn or anything else. Just this excrutiating pain Any ideas?
