Hello to all, looking for answers.
Heres my problem, I’ve been have a very slight pain in my lower right side for quite some time, it comes and goes, primarlly in the bellybutton region, although it moves all around the right side, under the rib cage, down to the groin area, doctors have no clue what it is, im having blood work tomorrow. Currently on Zoloft. Theres no pain when pressure is applied, no nausea, pain isant that bad, more of a discomfort than anything. What do you all think this could be, my first fear and thought is appendicitis, but the doc says no, then I thought hernia, ulcer, or ibs. What are the chances of this.
Please reply
What do I tell the doc, I just changed doctors cuz my old one couldn’t find anything, and he wasn’t doing any tests.

Start with the new doc by telling him everything, he will need clues to start the investigation!! Ask questions, write them down on piece of paper. The more info you feed the new doc the better he will be at finding the cause.

Be sure and tell him everything you take,prescriptions and over the counter meds, and/or vitamins. Yes, some vitamins can build up in your system and cause problems, I have experienced that.

I agree with dog lover. Why don't you tell your doctor that this pain is ongoing and ask him to order a HIDA scan. If that doesn't reveal anything, then ask for an Abdominal Ultrasound.
