Guest guest Posted April 4, 2000 Report Share Posted April 4, 2000 Hello I was just wondering if anyone out there with EG has ever had severe abdominal pain under the left rib cage which went to the back and if so if they know where it is coming from. I have been on so many medications lately and was coming off of prednisone that the my Dr is convinced that it is my large intestines. I am now back on prednisone while the Dr tries to figure this out. I am currently taking vicodin for pain. I thought I was doing great until last Thursday evening when I woke up with this severe pain. I have had high eosinophils since 1992 and they Drs are not sure if I have EG or hypereosinophilic syndrome. I have been extremely nauseated lately and would like to hear if others have this same problem and what they use. My pain is general high in the stomach region but lately has moved down to the lower pelvic region. I have had 3 colonoscope and 4 endoscope. My gut always looks good until the biopsy comes back with eosinophils infiltrating. I have these in my colon and duodenum. They have tried to force the scope futher to find more areas and have not been able to. My pain lately seems to be coming on stronger and lasts longer. I used to work full time and now I have been lucky enough to work from my home telecommuting part time. The doctors at the Univesity of Washington tell me that it must be the large intestine having a flare up. Your suggestions will be appreciated. Thank You, Patience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
