Stinging unbearable pain for 2 min.

Hi guys,
I wonder if you know what I'm experiencing.
I've experienced for the 2nd time a terrible stinging unbearable pain on my
right side right under the ribs. Just awful! I can hardly catch my breath
when this happens it's so painful but doesn't last long.
It doesn't feel like a muscle pull......It feels like something is there and when I stand up and rub the area it goes away. This is the 2nd attack I've had - today and last Sunday. Pain is unbearable but it goes away after a minute to 2 minutes.....(THANK GOD). If it happens again, I will go to doc next week.
What could this be?? I have no gallbladder/kidney problems in my family - Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Laura/NJ

Unfortunately, none of us can count on this because some health issues have to start with someone and in this case, you might be the first in your family.


Keep track of when these attacks have happened and how long they've lasted. Also keep notes on what you may have eaten and what helps stop the pain. You probably should make an appointment to be sure nothing is starting.


Please keep us updated, OK Laura?
