Hi, I have pain in my upper abdomen, sharp pain in my right front belly when I sneeze cough etc, and stabbing pain in my left side upper and middle, below the ribs. I also have burning across my upper abdomen. All symptoms worsen when I eat and also cause nausea. I do not have a gallbladder, it was removed in 2007. I was on metformin but quit taking it when symptoms began. I don t have insurance for 24 more hours, can I wait to go to ER? What causes these symptoms?
