I am pretty concerned, help!
I am pretty concerned and trying to stay calm. About 48 hours ago,I started with some mild pain (but consistant) under my ribs on the right side (not my ribs) and was very sore to the touch. I am also having some back pain and pain in my side. It has got prgressively worse and right now I am pretty nauseated and running a low grade fever (99.9). It's 3:00am and I am awake because I rolled over and almost went through the roof. It hurts to even sit up for more than a minute.
Please tell me that liver mets don't come on like this. Could it be gallbladder or appendix or something? If it wasn't so far over on the side, I might think it was my stomach. I am actually thinking about calling the doctor (I've never done that in the middle of the night). Definitely a little worried...
