Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been experiencing pain for going on one year on the right side. Pain is severe and radiates from the belly button to underneath my ribs, or across the belly to the right hand side of down towards thigh. I ve had a resection of my small intestine to remove carcinoid tumors as well as my appendix, where they also found another tumor. I can t eat or drink because it causes the pain to increase. I only have one meal a day to deal with the pain. I have moderate gastroparisis too
“As” per your history please do a physical examination by your local surgical medicos. Do an ultrasound as well as capsule endoscope to ruled out any under laying pathology. Treatment depends upon categorical causes only.
Hope that avails
