Guest guest Posted February 9, 2001 Report Share Posted February 9, 2001 Hi Debbie, I just developed the pain in my back last week. But, this is the worst pain I have had (except for the initial attack). I have another bad disc in my back (after one back surgery a couple years ago), and when I had my first attack, my back was hurting. That is what started my whole thing. I woke up and couldn't move. I assumed it was my back problem. I went to my back dr, and he started poking, and when he got to my abdomen, I screamed. He sent me to my primary care dr. After that, it hurt whenever I ate. Then I had all the tests, and my first 'attack' was after my colonoscopy. So, in other words, on my good days, my back doesn't hurt. But, when I'm having bad pains in the abdomen, my back hurst REALLY bad (in the middle of my back). It is a different back pain then from my disc problem. I can't get the disc problem fixed until they get the chr pan calmed down. I just love feeling like a 90 yr old at age 35! LOL I don't know if this helps since I'm not near as advanced as you.... Hugs, Debi all you guys - - wonder why i don't have back pai You know - i wonder why in all my attacks, hospital stays etc; that i have never had the back pain that you all talk about???? (NOT that i am complaining, mind you) i only hurt right in the middle at the end of my rib cage, throughout the abdomen and up into my chest like i'm trying to have a heart attack. debbie (ark) PANCREATITIS SUPPORT NETWORKOnline e-mail groupTo reply to this message hit "reply" or send an e-mail to: PancreatitisegroupsTo subscribe to this e-mail group, simply send an e-mail to: Pancreatitis-subscribeegroups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 12, 2001 Report Share Posted February 12, 2001 Debi, your back probably hurts worse when you have abdominal pain because it's probably pressing on the bad disc. Sometimes I think the only reason I've done so well in avoid constant pain until this last time is because my rib cage is so big (a full clothing size bigger than the rest of me). Gave all the other organs lots of room when the pancreas swells. Kimber De bi wrote: Hi Debbie, I just developed the pain in my back last week.
