Constant stomach pain


Question Posted Monday March 9 2009, 9:18 pm

I am 23 F. I have been having weird stomach pain for a year now. I have tested my diet, but I still seem to get very nausiated even if I eat a piece of fruit. Anything I eat or drink will cause me to vomit or have severe pain like I just got kicked in my stomach. I have lost alot of weight very quickly, and I faint because of loss of nutreints from not eating. I have been rushed to the hospital many times, but they refuse to help me because I have no insurence. I cant work because I cant even stand up straight. I cant get medicaid or ssi because they said Im not blind, so Im not disabled. I am at my end, and I just want to give up. I am basically dieing by starvation and dehidration. Does anyone know what I can do?

You need to look into government assistance. There are many places that treat uninsured patients for free or discounted amounts. Theres also many available insurance plans for very low prices. Look into what is available in your state. You should be able to find it all out on the internet. Good luck, and take care of yourself.

First, move to a country that takes care of its citizens when they're having a health crisis. Seriously, as a Canadian I can't believe that they would turn someone away from the hospital because they can't pay.

I'm not a doctor, so I can't diagnose you. Make sure you take multivitamins every day, and drink plenty of water or Gatorade, if you can manage that. Just to try to curb the dehydration and vitamin deficiency. Stick to bland foods like soda crackers, clear fluids, plain rice, applesauce. Those should upset your stomach less.

Is there any way that you could get health insurance? I know it's expensive, but it's just a necessary thing. Or is there any way to get covered under another person's? Parents, perhaps? If they know what you're going through, would they help you pay for it?

You also said that you can't work... are you on social assistance? Do they have a plan for medical coverage?

Whatever you do, try your hardest to get in to a doctor. There comes a point where it's just not an option anymore to go without.

Good luck.
