Suggest Treatment For Constant Pain In Stomach Area

I am having off and on pain in my stomach area. It s to the right of my navel mostly. I have been hurting for about a week. Today I am sick at my stomach. I don t have a fever but I have been having chills since this started. When I was in high school I started having this same pain but in the navel area, after going to bathroom, the pain doubled me up. I would go to sleep with a heating pad and it would be alright the next day. I was still going to my pediatrician and he said it was growing pains . After I married and we were in school at Alabama I was still having this problem. It usually happened if I got real excited or real depressed. I finally went to a doctor in Tuscaloosa... your going to love this.... his name was Dr Lord. He was great about it and said you can t get much better than me. I told him all of this and he got up and reached for one of his medical books, turned to a page and told me to read. It was me. He said I was having muscle spasams (sorry sometimes I just can t spell), in my stomach. He put me on liberax . It did help me. From time to time I still had this problem but not as often. NOW.. this I am having doesn t end with the sharp pain at the end of urination. It just comes and goes everyday &night now for about a week. I have the worst taste in my mouth when I burp. I have been very depressed for a long time now. My oldest son talked me into leaving my job of 18 yrs., selling my house, and moving to be closer to them in Fla. I needed my income and would have worked at least till I was 65. I had good insurance, a company car, a great job. I knew I would be able to care for myself until... well u know. It took 8 mos. for them to talk me into it but in the end they did. I was 58 and now I am 68. As soon as I had packed up 40 yrs of my life and they had me, that s when I was told things didn t work out like they had hoped and I would have to find another job in Fla. They had told me I would be working with them and their company for same salary, and perks as I had at my old job. They were just doing so well they were moving into an office building, they just needed more space, don t worry about a thing Mom. They set me up. I found out it had happened to a lot of women that were alone like me. They call it Late life abuse . I lost everything. They moved to Brunswick, Ga. and were just going to leave me. I didn t know a soul, had to depend on my son and finally got them to just get a uhaul truck and take me to Brunswick too. Well, that s where I am. They moved on to Saint Augustine and build a new home. They are doing fine. Haven t seen them but once since then. That was 3 yrs. ago, maybe 5. I am totally alone. The place where they put me is nice but mostly renters. All my money paid for their home. I didn t have a job, no car, no health ins, there s more but I just realized u probably have quit reading this novel. You know this is first time I have ever had someone to vent to. You can bill me if you want, I have medicare now. This was one long paragraph. Sorry. I know this is something. Not just a depression result. I do appreciate you listening. My email address is YYYY@YYYY . If you have any thoughts on this feel free to let me know. You know I am feeling a little better. I forgot to tell you, the kitchen ceiling fell on me almost a year ago. I am renting and haven t told my landlord. The light fixture which is one of those big, long ones. I never turned it on, hate those, it filled with water from a leak. I got up in middle of night, went to get a drink and it, along with the ceiling, wiring, other stuff crashed down on me. I landed on my kneecaps, hit my head on cabinets and have had a whole lot of pain from it all. I ended up with a specialist telling me I have no cartilage in knees and need total knee replacement surgery. Well, I am stopping now, my stomach is really hurting. You think I should send a copy of this to Dr. Phil ?? Maybe Ellen or Oprah? That was a joke. I just don t want to have to go to hospital. I have no one to help me and no money to get help. Thanks for giving me a place to send this. I do feel a little better.
