Is Severe Stomach Pain With Nausea Sign Of Stomach Ulcers?
I went to the ER last Monday with severe stomach pain that was located in the middle of my stomach and nausea. When I m hungry the pain is worse until I eat it subsides a little. At first the ER thought it was my appendix then after a CT and labs they said I had a kidney stone on the left side but this was not what was causing my pain they said they couldn t find what was wrong they did a manual pelvic exam and slapped it as PID I m in school to be a paramedic I have never had an STD of any kind. They have me doxy and flagyl which are both making my symptoms worse. Could I be right in thinking its a stomach ulcer?
