What does it mean when you have sharp pains in the left side of your stomach?


Question:
I used to get those kind of pains, & it feels like a bad charlie horse in my stomach so badly I couldn't move, & the second I moved an inch, it would hurt worse, so I had to sit still. & when I went to the ER, the doctors served me last & then when they ran tests on me, they said nothing was wrong with me, & they used my mental illness against me & tried to make me out of a hypochondriac. But one time a doctor said I had gastritis & gas buildup. But if they feel it was all in my mind & anxiety-related, then why did they say I was wasting time & the doctor's resources?

It wasn't all in my mind. & they were the worst pains I've ever experienced. Could I have sued these doctors if something worse would've happened to me? I think they just didn't want to help me.

Answers:
Well the one doctor was right...you probably did have a gas build up. The same thing used to happen to me and does once in a while, but not so much anymore. The only thing that would help me get rid of the pains was rollling on the floor from side to side. You need to do whatever you can to move the gas down. This gas is stuck in your intestines and can't get out easily by itself. It does hurt when you roll around, but it was the only thing that ever helped me. It might help if you eat a little more fiber too.that gets things going.
There's a good chance you've been infected with an alien. It's probably incubated long enough and is trying to burst out of your body. You should go see a doctor and get an x-ray or an MRI. He may need to surgically remove it.
Are you a female?I was told that it was pain from ovulating.
i really do think that it is some kind of gas problem. i have had extremely sharp pains before and it was alot worse when i moved. my mom said it was just gas and after a couple minutes it went away. i really dont think its something very serious if doctors think its gas and they can not find anything. you can always get a 2nd or 3rd opinion from a dr if you want to.
are you getting enough Fibre ?? my doctor put me on Metemusil . every day it works
are you a girl?? that pain is from ovulating.
im not sure what side your appendix is on

or everyone else could be right and it could be gas
