Thank you! Apparently, I have intestinal thrombosis. I had a laugh at the description on internet: abdominal pain is disproportionate to physical findings... yeah, you can say that again. I’m nearly cross-eyed with pain. At this stage it can be treated very well. However, if left alone it can lead to infarction which has a mortality rate of 70-90 percent. So happy to have the operation. I had gone to talk with a doctor before now and he would not take me seriously, but this one took one look and was booking the operating theatre, so I feel in good hands. Happy seeking and will be back end next week!
