help wanted

Lately i have been having there really severe attacks of what feels like wind trapped under my ribs, the pain is like a band around my shoulder blades, and it gets so bad that i end up throwing up.

I have done some research and it all points towards gallstones, and as the attacks are getting more frequent and lasting between 1-5 hours i am starting to get worried. .

I have already spoken to one doctor who has said they can do nothing while im pregnant, but man i can not keep going through this, i am so worried its affecting my baby.

I see the midwife on friday and i have made notes of all the attacks (she has been away for the past month), what i am wondering is if anyone else has gone through this and if so what they did to help ease the pain.

I think Janine had something similar? Not sure...

yeah it just seems to come from no where, i am making another appointment to see a doctor on tuesday, as after talking to the midwife she confirmed that it wasnt baby and that it sounded like either gallstones or a bowel adhesion, neither of which i want.

me too, the thing is i forget about it until i have another attack, and as long as it doesnt happen while im in labour i will be happy, will let you know how it goes after i have seen that doc.
