Ok, I did a clense from Isagenix starting 3.5 wks ago. I did 3 wks worth of the shake supps. On my 3rd week I ended up at the docs office with an impacted colon. Doc said he was sure that's all it was after palpatating my stomache and checking me for other symptoms. He did not feel necessary for blood work or xrays. Doc said eat lots of fiber, drink lots of water and if it does not improve, call me back. That night I got this tea called "Smooth Move" and went to the bathroom a couple times. Since then I have gone to the bathroom at least a couple of times each day. However, starting right after the Gas & Bloating subsided, I've had a dull pinching pain in my upper right area just below my rib cage, but close to the mid part of my stomache. When I was at the docs I had no pain on that side. If I palpate the right side of my stomache I have no pain at all, except for that exact pinching spot, which is just the same pain that is there off and on. This has been off and on for about 3 days now. It has not gotten worse and sometimes it does not pinch at all. I work for an acupuncturist and he showed me that this is where the gallbladder is. What I am wondering is if this is the gallbladder, what key symptoms should I look for? I am not nausious, no fever, no serious pain, just this occasional dull pinch. Could it be my intestines just healing from all this blockage? I am going to wait till Friday and if it's not better I'll go back to my doctor, or I will wait till my physical on 9/18. I really feel fine otherwise and this pain is just a dull ache and only in that one spot. I do not have any signs of appendicitis so I doubt that it the cause. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
