When I was pregnant with my last child five years ago, I began to develope stomach problems. I thought it was heartburn, but now I am not so sure. When it started, I was moving my bowels once a month, I figured that is what started it. I have been to five different hospitals,9 different tests, and every heartburn medication known to man. My symptoms are a gnawing pain in my upper left side, sore joints, a bad taste in my mouth, I have a hard time swallowing,loss of appetite, it wakes me up in the night, so I get no sleep, and the current doctor I am seeing says that I have spasms. The spasms are my worst problem, I can feel it when I move, it bothers me so much,that I have to push on my stomach to try and bring it out from one side, and it just moves to the other side. I push so much that I have a huge bruise on the upper left side of my stomach. I am on levsin right now, and it does not seem to be helping. I was wondering if it could be my intestines, because it is my upper left side,and not my right. My doctor did say that there is the start of kidney stones in my gallbladder. Could that cause the spasms? Could problems with my intestines cause the spasms? What are spasms, because the problem I am having is a lot of noise, sort of sounds like water, and when I push the spot that bothers me, it moves to the other side. Is that spasms, or something else. It's been five years , and it is effecting my life tremendously,can you help me try and figure out what it could be?
