Omg when will it stop...??? i am 16 years old and a while ago about maybe 2 1/2 months ago my stomach was in alot pain ....... Now it is back ever since late last night March 7th, last time i went to the doctors and they said that it was not enough to put me in the ER, but it's kind of freaking me out because on Feb. 25th maybe i had to go and get tested for pregnacy but it came out negitive we did like 2 test, so i know that cant have anything to do with it..... I know that i should tell my parents but ever sice they were told that i have " Classic Cico Symatic " they say " It's only in your mind, remember? and they wont do anything about it..... you dont know my parents if they are told something like that they wont do anything about it, i do the same old stuff every day!!! Which now that the pain is back it's not good because in my gym class we have to run and that kills and i cannot get out of class unless i have a doctors note and i cannot get that because my parents dont believe me, and my doctor probably wouldnt give me one....... when i sit it hurts a little bit more than when i stand, last time this happen my doctor made me get an Ultra sound to look in influmation of my overies they didnt find anything =(...... Only if i could say how much it hurts i would do so like it kills i think i should probably go into the ER just in case it could be something bad, what do you think it could be??? It's getting to the point were it's scaring me..... I know that it's defintally NOT my appendix because they would of found that in the Ultra sound and what not...... It hurts under my rib cage and the right side and it hurts like hell, i keep looking up syptoms of what it could be and it keeps saying these things..... Blader stone, overy cancer, and something to do with the liver....... Should i get medical help??? should i tell my teachers at school, maybe they can help me get support to tell me parents??? i go to a small school for special needs!!! I cannot live with the pain coming and going, coming and going all the time i just idk, i just dk.......... PLEASE HELP FAST!!!!!!!!!!!1

I'm so sorry to hear that you're in so much pain and that you don't feel able to tell your parents - and it's also a worry that they haven't noticed that you're in this much pain.  It must be so difficult for you.  You really need medical advice and to push for some test/s to find a reason for this pain.  If you really don't feel that you can approach your parents, take a friend with you to your dr - for support - and try to take a list of exactly what's wrong and the symptoms - very often it's difficult to remember all that you wanted to say during an appointment.  Try not to worry, it may be a 'simple' problem for a dr to help with. Thinking of you.

I would like to add that it's possible you have gas.  When gas forms in the guts, it can hurt like crazy, double a person over.  So, try taking an ordinary alka seltzer in a glass of water, it helps dispel gas, and it should make you feel worlds better.  

If it doesn't, then it's possible you are having unusual monthly cramps, and it would happen maybe just once or twice a month.  Get some tablets at the drugstore for cramps, it should help ease the discomfort a lot.  Eventually it should go away on its own.  

But I agree with the above poster, if this continues perhaps into the summertime, you can just start mentioning it to your parents, don't be overly dramatic or anything, just tell them when it happens, and let it go at that.  Eventually they may see the wisdom is letting your family doctor examine you again.  Or you can tell the school nurse what is going on and let her take if from there.  And if you want to, you can go to the county health department on your own and ask to be seen.

Hi there:

It sounds to me like you are in a lot of pain.  It's not uncommon for people your age to have gallbladder problems.  No matter what your parents are like, they would never forgive themselves if they ignored you and it was serious.  Please talk to your family and tell them the truth about your pain.  If you go to the Doc or hospital, they will likely give you blood tests and if there's something wrong, your blood tests will show it.

You're 16, not 12.  Approach them as an adult and you will likely be treated as one.  Use a pain scale 1-10.  Take 7 as having a tooth pulled, eight as a broken bone.  When you are at 8, it's time to go to the hospital.

I hope you are feeling better soon!  All the best,

Sam
