I'm sorry you have to deal with that. Can I ask though, where the pain was in your side/abdomin? like was it high or low or twards the front or back? I keep getting a pain in my side/abdomin too, but I was told it was nothing serious (after being worked up for apendicitis and then Gall bladder problems). I am taking Topamax, so I was wondering if it could be doing something.
