Hi @kimh. Yes I had a CT done when I was in er. Radiologists diagnosed me with MP. Then a re read the next day never mentioned it. I had a 3rd radiologist look and he said he would not have called the mp out on the report. Frustrating! No there has been no mention of biopsy or anything. Just going with the flow. Meanwhile I have pain all the time. I have had ibs for 20 years. This is not a new thing to me and I know what that feels like. This is entirely different. I started with right upper quadrant pain and I still have that. Now for the last 2 days I have had left lower quadrant pain to the point it woke me up several times last night. I'm just frustrated and at a loss. I appreciate your response. I may send my ct to mayo to see if I really have this or not. Lots of back story here too. I grew up in an area where Monsanto had dumped radioactive waste near a creek where I played as a child. Now there are cluster cancers being discovered. Google cold water creek if interested. It's a bit frightening.

Hello @jarnold246. Is your doctor aware of the environmental exposure you have had? If not, this might be a good topic of conversation. I know how uncomfortable abdominal pain can be.

Have you found anything that helps ease the pain, either meds, exercise or a liquid/soft diet for several days with bed rest?
