Has anyone have these same symptoms. Just the upper part of my stomach in bloated but I have pain in my left side and around to my upper back. The pain feels like when I had pleuricy. I am going to try and add a picture so you know what I am talking about. I am very uncomfortable and can not eat without feeling even fuller and nausous. Please let me know I am worried about my liver or spleen. I looked it up and it said I could be having problems with either of these organs. Thank you for any responses http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k58/ldyaquarius/IMG_1293.jpg

it's difficult to comment not knowing where you are in tx etc.
the bugs and toxins play havoc on gut. antibx do also 'cause they kill good bacteria. read burrascano's tx guidlines online library this website
probiotics, no dairy, limit sugar, perhaps wheat or other allergins, detox!.... parsley drops in water every 10 min is good. diet is very important!

you need to look into your gallbladder or pancreas as the source of your problem. One of them can be more on one side and into the back pain. Can't remember which but I think it's gallbladder.
Get to the dr, get some labs. Pancreatisis can be dangerous.

The spleen is on the left side. Been checked for babesia??
I would still suspect candida/yeast however. It can cause extreme bloating and pain.

gall bladder liver is on the right arm side, the spleen and pancreas are on the left side. So it is either the spleen or pancreas. Agree with blinkie, but i'd be more inclined to see an alternative doctor about this first -- if you can find an osteopath about it first and its just my opinion. I'm hoping the person will give you something to support your spleen or pancreas depending on which organ is generating the pain. I'm guessing spleen. The PCP could remove your gall bladder and once that's gone your digestion will never be quite the same.

I had the bloated abs and in particular the upper left side. The bloating went away after a couple weeks on Mepron/Zith. The rib cage pain, I believe, lasted almost til the end of the second three-month course of Mepron/Zith. So I think of the bloat and pain as Babs.
But what do I know. I have been sick for three years. In fact you might want to believe the opposite of what I think...
-------------------- enjoy the day.

also, you should look into c difficle and I also get this from flagyl and bactrim. So, it could be the meds you are taking.

And, I can't drink milk with flagyl or I bloat really bad.

Thanks everyone for the input. I went to my primary and she said I have a UTI AGAIN.
But didn't seem concerned about my bloated and painful belly. I don't like her but she is all I can get with my insurance.
Oh by the way I had my gallbladder out at 18 and my appendix at 24. I also had one ovary removed from cysts.
So I am really concerned that it could be something more serious. My stomach is never like this, something is defintily wrong.

ha...me too. but much older. guess it must be a lyme thing.
i have had similar gi problems for many years. 2 yrs ago a chest catscan showed possible problems and wanted to be re done in 6 months. i went on buhner tea and in 6 months no problems. at 18 months tho it all came back. and then cat scan was all neg.
i'm guessing lymph nodes...but its just a guess. noone really knows. but i think it was the red root in the tea that helped.

I would recommend seeing a gyn to rule of pelvic issues and a GI dr. to rule out the gut/stomach issues.
