I loved the feeling of my baby rolling around my tummy, and that is the only way I can describe this, BUT it feels like he grabbed onto my liver and is yanking! I am not preggers, long ago had the factory shut down.

One theory is that the fever from the ear infection set off a flair. The MDs cant find out what is making this happen, and clearly can feel it when they put their hands on my tummy. They have all said they have never seen anything like it. Dont ya know its special when they call in an office partner to "come see this thing!"

I have written an email to my neuro office, I am sure they will respond bright and early. Its HUGE for me to go see a surgeon for a second opinion. I am a "stop touching me" kinda girl.

Thanks for the hugs and well wishes. they mean alot.
With the new description - I am thinking more HUG! It is at times extremely painful. When it is bad the only thing I can do is lay flat on my back. I also get lots of shooting, sharp, burning, and stabbing like pains. Not to mention dam* near passing out and throwing up from the pain. Truly, it is not fun.

Like you, I am a don't touch me kind of girls as well as a stop breathing when in pain kind of girl. I don't scream out, I become real withdrawn and quiet. (No wonder DBF likes it when the Hug acts up. j/k He really doesn't as I get pale and sickly looking, etc from the pain and he wants to help but feels helpless as there is nothing he can do.)

Also like you, for me to even pick up the phone and call the dr is a major deal. I hate, hate going. (Hence the reason I ended up with a 2 round abx sinus infection). And to go to the ER is even a bigger deal. Working in one is one thing, being a patient in one is totally different.

Let us know how things turn out for you and how you are doing. In the meantime, try laying flat on your back with your arms over your head and take some deep breaths. This does help. Additionally, ice packs on that side may help. Ice is great for nerve conduction.
