Hi! I have been having some really strange stomach issues lately. Last week ( weds or thurs I think) my stomach was hurting anytime I ate something. My muscles in my stomach back and neck would ache ( which is very strange) I was evwn considering not eating the next day ( like fasting) to see if it would stop. After two- 3 days of it, it stops and Im totally fine. Now the night before last, I had an increase of appetite.Yesterday, I would eat and after 1 1/2-2 1/2 hrs, I was extremely hungry again. Now today, 5 minutes after I ate, my stomach started hurting, like a constant hunger pain. I feel constantly hungry, I tried eating some protien because I read an article that said it may help if you are feeling constantly hungry ( unfortunately the only thing in my fridge w protien was potstickers; chicken is in the oven cooking- not done yet) The constant dull "hunger?" pain has not gone away, only goes away when I eat and returns 5 min later. I started a new exercise regime of run a mile and walk a mile (+ more if I can) and today is day5, although I havent run yet.Someone mentioned overexercising, I really didnt think that was it. Any suggestions? Should I go to the dr? I started mfp july 6th, 2013 at 249lbs, and Im currently at 230. Im 24yrs old, 5'6", if that helps? Any advice is appreciated!

    Unless there is a doctor or nurse on the boards that can help you out, I'd recommend calling your doctor or the advice nurse at the hospital to get some guidance. They are going to be the best bet for you getting you real answers.

    Good luck!

    Unexplainable pain always means a trip to the doctor is preferable.

    If the doctor finds nothing, check out food sensitivities. If I want an instant stomach ache, all I need to do is eat some tomato. If I want a hangover headache, chocolate does the deed. I used to think it was "all in my head" until an allegist did a tine test and confirmed the food sensitivities.

    No. 1 is see a doctor.

    But...a few days ago I was feeling nauseated and neck achey etc and it turned out I was having a SERIOUS case of nerves. I didn't even quite realize how badly stressed I was until my husband started talking to me about it. I broke down in tears. The good news is I don't have a migraine or feel sick to my stomach anymore--I was able to get it out and identify what was bothering me.

    (*though I would be the first to say that "stress cannot be blamed for all ailments"--so that might now be it. It definitely was for me *this time* though.)

    There are medical professionals on MFP, but none that would try to diagnose her online..lol. I second going to see the doctor there.

    Super strange, but my stomach stopped hurting after I ran the mile... Im still going to the dr, just because this is so weird. Ive never had any of this happen before.
