Should I go to the doctor? Is this anything to worry about?

Question

For the last 8 days I haven't been feeling my best.

ALL my symptoms are on and off and mild for the most part.

I feel like vomiting - especially a little after meals, when I'm really hungry, or in a car. (Not car sick, this is new.)

My lower abdomin hurts. I feel mild pressure/mild pain there. However, it wasn't as bad today as it has been. Is this a sign I'm getting better? Or am I just getting used to it?

A couple inches above my belly button in the middle I feel tender and I feel pressure, mostly after eating.

My muscles feel achy and my lower back aches. Muscles not as bad today but lower back the same.

Started feeling constipated on Monday. Still making BM's and I have added fiber. Constipation is mild.

All my symptoms are mild enough for me to sleep through the night and go to school. They seem to be triggered by eating. (no change in diet) I just want to know if it is IMPORTANT that I go to the doctor.

***My parents will be hard to convince, as money is tight. And when I convince them and it's nothing bad, they will be mad. I don't even go to the doctor for strep.

I am a 14 year old girl, 5'7 and 118 lb, and have NOT been on my period any of this time.

Answer 1

You might be having a couple of things wrong. It's possible that you are having urinary tract infection because you say your having pain in the lower part of your stomach and back.

As for the eating part. A friend of mine was just diagnosed with an intestinal obstruction which made it painful when she eats also makes her constipated.

It is important that you see your doctor or go to a free clinic.

Answer 2

You should see a doctor.

You could have something serious. Unless you go, you won't know.

If it does turn out to be something minor, and your parents are mad about it, they shouldn't be. Better safe than dead.

Answer 3

sounds like irritable bowel syndrome. do some research on google, you can learn a lot about how to deal with it.
