Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
How Does One Treat Severe Abdominal Pain, Nausea And Breathing Difficulty?
My son is experiencing severe abdominal pain and nausea on the left side of his abdomen, to the point its gets hard for him to breath. He is currently in England and the doctors tell him there is nothing wrong. How can that be when he has changed his diet and still is doubled over in pain and barely able to live a normal life?
As what I understand from the history, the symptoms of breathing difficulty is due to stomach problem. May be he is not able to digest the food and the gastric issue is leading to pain. Nausea is a symptoms to feel in acidity.
I will advice to consume slow sips of water with sugar in it. As fold water will ease the acid effect of the HCL produced in the stomach and sugar is a base which will help reduce the acidity.
Having warm water post food and avoiding high protein food should help.
In my clinical practice of over 12 years most cases of breathing issues are due to gastric issue. Once the gastric issue is resolved then the pain will come down and so does the breathing issue.
Handling this kind of properly have always produced excellent results.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Severe abdominal pain on the left side of the abdomen associated with nausea might be a colicky pain. Your information is not complete. Usually these type of pain occurs when there is a stone (calculus) in the ureter, or kidney.
Such type of pains usually start in the loin and radiate to the groin region. The pain will be so severe that patients feel nauseated and roll over the bed. Difficulty in breathing at that time may be due to the severity of pain. If your son is having this type of pain ask him to get an plain CT KUB so that if any calculus is present can be seen.
