abdominal pain

From last Tuesday lunchtime I had diarrhoea until Friday evening when I took some medication for it. I was also sweating profusely on occasions when sitting still and had palpitations. The diarrhoea stopped after I took the medication but overnight last night I had pains in my belly around the bellybutton, mostly on my RHS. These remain and is painful when pressed. Is this perhaps as a result of my having empty bowels for four days. I have not yet seen a GP

Re: abdominal pain

I wonder if the anti diarrhoea drug has now made you constipated.....it would really be a persistence of these symptoms which would require a doctor review i.e sounds like things are improving. Also hard to tell with limited information but your appendix is something to consider .....or maybe you have had it out already, just a thought
