He had been suffering for over three months? What did he think it was, gas?

i had the same thought... 3 months is a long time to let it go... maybe his health insurance is no good :)

I’ve been complaining and been hospitalized several times for Abdominal pain. Latest was a Colitis Ileus attack. Had a third while in the hospital.

I can’t get my internist or Gastro to look where the real cause of the pain lies. I fell a very hard belly flop fall, that bruised my entire Upper AB wall and rib cage. No broken bones. The fact I have bad Osteoporosis -3.1, I should have broken every rib. (I got stuck in a AB Brace that covered you from Ribs to lower AB.) Thankful I did not. But not more than 2 weeks later with out DIAGNOSTICS I was supposed to get, and the Ortho refused to order but sent me to a super aggressive Certified Physio guy. Who over cranked on my neck and POPPED a Lumbar disc. Instant pain down both legs and across lower AB that has not let up in THREE YEARS!

Plain with no contrast dye MRI was worthless as a diagnostic tool. I’ve had 3 no 2 read alike. Last one the Neuro told me that a popped disc in my lumbar could not cause AB pain. It sure as H does cause it and the pain down both legs. L1 - L5 Large intestines, appendix, abdomen, bladder, reproductive organs, lower back, lower extremities, ankles, feet, and more He must have slept through that simple Biology 101 class. Virtual Spine, touch the disc it tells you what it controls. http://www.echiropractic.net/nervechart.htm
