You might want to call the doc...esp if you woke up that way...
...I only say this because one time I was having TERRIBLE gas that would not go away...sooo much pain, and I didn't want to go to the doc because I was too embarrassed...I thought they were going to tell me I had gas and I was ridiculous...
...long story short, it wasn't gas, it was a really bad kidney infection...and I only figured it out after I spent a day and a half in pain and only went to the doc when it got to be so bad I couldn't even stand up straight.
ita... a few years back I woke up SCREAMING.. my father took me to the hospital, he said 'if its just gas i'll be pissed, your brother did that to me once after eating a huge jar of pickles' so needless to say i let one rip..
RELIEF! now i'm scared that dads gonna get mad.. nope
5 minutes later I was sprawled across the hospital's waiting room floor begging for death.. i had two kidneys stones. a 7mm and a 4mm it was HORRIBLE!
that was almost 6 years ago.. now skip ahead:
this past friday i go home with cramps, (i get my period- BAD) and i do a shot of blackberry brandy (helps the cramps) oh not this time... this time I got these pains in my back and chest that I seriously thought I drank acid and was gonna die.. I was screaming like I was being murdered... my parents think its my gallbladder.. i figured it was just BAD gas...
well it started up again today and I went on webmd... yea its likely my gallbladder (had a few problems with it a few months ago) so I guess I'll be making a dr appt.
but if you really think its just gas... try the gas x strips. they work great. try that, if you still have gas later in the day.. please go to the dr.
That's why I asked too... I thought I had gas a couple of years ago and it was a kidney stone... and then I thought I was having gas problems again this past year and turns out I have to have my gallbladder removed.
If it hapens a lot, I'd def get it checked outI hope you feel better though. Gas can be very painful!
Thanks for the info girls. But no... it's def gas. I've always had stomach issues ever since I was a baby. Guess i'm just full of it.
