Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my sister has been having right sided pain for 1 week, went to ED and they did cat scan with negative results,they checked ovaries by manual and I believe blood work and urine sample. Lortab she has been taking & morphine given in hospital not touching pain,we are stumped.
Hi! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
I would insist on an ultrasound of abdomen to rule out a renal calculi, which a CT might not be able to pick up, causing this kind of pain. If inconclusive, and the pain increases or is not relieved, I would refer you to a general surgeon for a clinical assessment and related investigation like a diagnostic laparoscopy for further management of the problem.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
