Not a hunting post.... but something on muh brain (I may be getting old)

[Arty]

I think it was last Friday, I ate dinner, it was beans, rice, and chicken. I know exactly what I ate because I ran 16 miles Saturday morning and I was carb loading. Shortly thereafter I had a reallllly bad sharp pain under my left rib cage. Chalked it up to gas, walked around the house, didn't help. Finally it subsided. Never did fart or burp (at least substantially).

Been exactly a week later. Every meal I eat, around the 2-3rd bite, same place starts hurting. And while it's not like getting gored by an angry bull, it hurts pretty bad.

I started getting concerned on Wednesday, which is when it finally hit me, "hey idiot, this has happened at every meal, regardless of what you are eating, for 5 days now".

So off to google I go. I either have a bad pancreas, a hernia, a bad spleen, or gas. It ain't gas. I WISH I could rip a big one, cause that's EXACTLY what it feels like.

I don't have a gallbladder, removed 8 years ago. So it ain't gallstones.

Imma give it until Monday, with the hopes that I just pulled my diaphragm somehow and it's sore.
If it ain't better Monday I'm going to the doctor.

Typically last 2 and a half hours after I eat.... then I'm good as new.
That said, I just ate dinner, and I'm hurtin'!

Sounds like a tender pancreas. You might lay off the high fat shit and cut back sugars for a week and see if it kind of subsides. Your liver can spike your triglycerides from fatty/carby foods and cause your pancreas to overwork itself into a full blown pancreatitis if it gets real bad. If you change your diet and it subsides you need to be checked for triglycerides and diabetes.

That'll be $5000. Pay as you leave.

Two words....and, they ain't Sea Foam............."see doctor".

I don't eat fatty stuff (as a rule) and no sugar hardly ever. I DO eat the fuck out of carbs, normally to fuel for running.
Last physical was 3/16 and my numbers were very very good.
And I JUST learned that if I lean high and right the pain goes away. So maybe I'll just walk around leaning back and to the right from now on.
Pancreatitis would be severe, right? Like I'd know if I had it? This is just a hair more than "uncomfortable"
What I read, pancreatitis is a bitch and comes with fever vomiting and shitting yourself.

I had pancreatitis in 2006 and its the worse pain you will ever experience. Mine was from undiagnosed type 2 diabetes. My blood sugar was over 400 and triglycerides over 1000 when I checked in the hospital. I didn't think I ate too awfully bad either.

It may not be that. I'm just telling you what happened to me. The after dinner part sound endocrine related to me though. But I ain't a doctor. Go see one.

Yeah I think I will. I ain't screaming in pain but it certainly ain't comfortable. And it typically ends up shooting all the up to my left shoulder before it subsides

I agree with Posty.

Sounds like it's a pretty simple diagnosis dufus. Buy a larger size spandex panty.

So.... I dissolved 4 strips of gasx on my tongue first thing this morning
At lunch, 2 more. Then ate lunch.

While not 100% gone.... it's 98% gone.
Could I really be so full of farts I couldn't eat?

Gonna test it again this evening at dinner.

Hey, bro., you been to the doc, yet ???

[BarryBobPosthole]

I've never had a fart that backed up all the way to make my shoulder hurt.

If those symptoms are real you need to have somebody check it out.

Going Thursday 1pm. The gas-ex stuff seems to help but there is still something not right
