Hey everyone,
I can't seem to function and am so scared.
For months I've been vomiting blood, and had bloody diarrhoea. Every time I eat even the smallest amount I feel sick and my stomach throws up vomit. I used to wolf food down and now I can barely eat a slice of bread without feeling sick. It all started with a pain in my right side by my hip when I woke up in the morning. I ignored it for over a year. Recently it is quite bad and feels piercing. It's not a pain I can compare to any other kind I've ever had. It used to be a dull ache. But it's sharp and yet... It stays put. They checked me for appendicitis and they say it's not that. I've not had a fever even once. I have terrible acid reflux no matter what I eat or drink. The pain in my side is like a hot poker and feels worse every time I move. I also get bloating every time I eat and that's a rarety as I feel that bad as soon as I do lately.
I had an ultrasound yesterday that found nothing. My bloods weeks earlier found no signs of infection. The doctor yesterday said it's not IBS for sure which my GP always assumed and so did I. The doctor said they will need to do more tests. I asked him if it could be stomach cancer and he said it could, but not to worry too much until they do more tests.
I have a terrible feeling I can't shake. It's less of a feeling and more of a certainty that it's true. I know that's stupid as I don't know for sure. But I'm scared.
It makes it worse as my father passed away from bowel cancer recently. I guess... I just need some advice on how to keep sane right now.
