I have been experiencing pain below my rib cage for 3 days now..?

Question

I started having some upper stomach pain yesterday morning. I felt a little nauseated but then it went away. I also have IBS-D. I have had my gall bladder removed so i know its not that. I think it may be an ulcer but i dont know. I obviously couldn't see my doctor today since it's Labor Day. I don't know what it could be but the pain has been there all day , it'll just get a little worse at times..like a sharp pain or especially when i take deep breaths..its like my whole stomach hurts when i do that. Can someone please help me out

??? :( I know i gotta see a doctor but I gotta wait till tomorrow. By the way, im 22, female....and yeah what I've already mentioned.

Let me add that i also feel bloated. I just got a colonoscopy done about 2 months ago which came back negative. The doctor just said I had IBS-D. My stomach feels kinda hard and it hurts when i push it down or like touch it real hard...

First off, I am happy to hear that you are going to see a doctor today. Secondly, I am sad that you feel bad. I guess the important thing to realize is that most people expect the worst however, you are young and the body is strong at your age and I can almost promise you that your mind is blowing this out of perspective which is normal and I bet, once the doctor figures this out, you will be better within two weeks.
