shooting pain in groin?

[lou486]

for the past couple months i've been having random shooting pain on the right side of my groin, where my leg and body meet (in the crease). it happens once or twice a week, for anywhere between 10-20 seconds. i already went to the doctor once and she did an ultrasound but was unable to see my right ovary, so i am scheduled to go back on monday.  the pain is really worrying me. when it comes on i nearly fall to the ground, crying out in pain. it's very frustrating not knowing what it is, and i feel like my doctor is not helping. although i am going back in a few days, she seems to think it's gas pains. no offense to my doctor, but i know the difference between gas and a stabbing pain. has anyone had this before? after the 20 seconds of pain, i go back to feeling completely normal. please help!!

hi,

i wonder what's the result of your test.  i seem to have the same problem which happens only for one or two weeks during the second half of my menstrual cycle, and usually at nights. it goes away for a few weeks, then comes back again.  when it attacks, it is so painful that i cannot move my leg or stand on it. it is painfully crippling that i sometimes crawl.  my husband once had to carry me because it was too painful to walk. it's only on my right groin/joint.  i wonder if it's related to my ovulation period and if it's a problem in my ovary.  

i would greatly appreciate your update on your problem.

thanks,

sorry.. the doctor did a sonogram and i am going back on monday for another one in hopes she will get a better view of my right ovary.
