Recurring Pain In Left Side Abdomen. History Of Diagnosed With Mono And Swollen Spleen And Liver. Advice

"I was diagnosed with mono about a 2 yrs ago. When I was 1st diagnosed I had sever pain on my left side/abdomin and they did a test that showed my liver and spleen was enlarged/swollen. Over the past 2 years this pain continues to come back. I have been to the Er where they just sent me home and told me it was nothing. I still continue to get sever reoccuring pain on my left abdomin (much like the pain I had when I was 1st diagnosed) and I still very often get wore out easily and will stay in the bed for hours. Just wondering what is going on and if there is something wrong or something I need to do.

Hi,

Thank you for your query.

You mentioned that you are having pain on the left side of your abdomen for the past 2 years. However you have not mentioned the following:
1. Exact location on the left side?
2. What kind of a pain it is?
3. How long does it last?
4. How is it relieved?
5. Any investigations done?
Though the above information will help us in guiding you further but the description is suggestive of ureteric colic. The least investigation that can be suggested at this moment are an urine routine and an ultrasonography.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing you all the best.

Regards,
