Hi Amanda, Thank you for the information. My pain is a burning in the lower abdomen. It is not a sharp pain. It does not hurt when touched. When I move it doesn’t move or radiate. I was an extremely health vibrant women prior to this pain. It came out of nowhere. I am now in pain management and hate taking these drugs for pain. Do you have any suggestions of a Dr that might be of help? I tried to get into a Mayo Clinic but they said abdominal pain is too unspecific and there was a 3 month wait. Any suggestions would be extremely helpful. Thank you. Michelle

Hello Michelle,
I’m not Amanda, but have a few suggestions.
Have you tried an anesthesiologist, they work with pain management, what about an OB/gyn doctor, even a urologist for bladder.
Sounds like your discomfort is nonspecific.
Could it be a muscle, or hernia?

Hi Michelle, I was just had robotic laparoscopic surgery for ACNES at St Joe's in Phoenix by Dr Thomas Gillespie. He cut three nerves in my lower right quadrant of my stomach. Went home same day. I am finally cured of this horrible pain. Thank God for Dr Gillespie and his team. He does take new patients. Great surgeon.
