Guest guest Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 thanks Beth how will I explain it, to the ER dr or triage nurse the symptom I'm experiencing?.. IrenePF 03/07 Raynaud's Disease 09/07Crohn's Disease 03/95 Asthma 02/92 A little update Hi All, I have a question to ask and it started on Tuesday night just after 11pm and it lasted all night, into early hours about 5:30am. It was very constant about every 5-10 minutes pain felt like a pulsation (heartbeat) between my left rib cage just above the navel area (like an L shaped) Yesterday, it wasn't that bad...it came and went during the day, it settled down around 6pm. I haven't felt again...I did call my GP, this morning and she said if it happens again, I should go to ER, it could be anything....It was so weird, has anybody experienced a similar situation. I had a lot of blood tests, the other day and the results came back as normal. 5 tubes of blood were taken On Saturday, I have my annual eye exam. Eye dr sent me a little note, you're overdue! Please make an appointment. ..Probably my new Rheumatologist would want to do more blood tests next week, when I see for the first time. I'm still waiting for the Sleep Apnea appointment IrenePF 03/07 Raynaud's Disease 09/07Crohn's Disease 03/95 Asthma 02/92 Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people. Go to Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Irene, It's really impossible for me to say since I'm not experiencing it. But in general you should just describe specifics, the location of the pain or sensation, the intensity, how long it lasts or how often it comes and goes. Just give them as much specific factual information as possible. Hope that helps. Beth Age 48 Fibrotic NSIP 06/06 Change everything.
