Extreme abdominal pain and pressure

Yesterday it was so bad I had to take a hydrocodone. It came out of nowhere. I thought it was a really severe menstrual cramp at first, but it didn't let up like a cramp. It just stayed locked up and incredibly painful. I could barely walk. It lasted for about an hour. The hydro took the edge off, but the pressure was still there.

There is definitely something wrong with my insides. I have a gyno appointment in May, so hopefully I can make it til then without that horrible pain coming back.

Maybe a ruptured cyst. They say the pain can be bad for some women. But at least it’s not anything to worry about if that was it. I always end up in a lot of pain for days after the gyn routine check up and once it was excruciating and they told me it was prob a ruptured cyst and there’s nothing they could do but let it pass. Ended up being a bad kidney stone. I couldn’t stand or sit in any way that helped. My back was horrible too. Is your back alright with the stomach pain?

Be very very careful as one of my coworkers had same symptoms, and ended up with a stoma bag through her not fit for purpose GP. Ask for second opinions.
You cant wait 2 months

If it happens again call your gyno. I had PCOS and when a cyst ruptures it hurts. They will get you in sooner and do an ultrasound.

Could be a cyst but with it passing it may just be gas. It can travel and create intense pain and pressure. Try to get it checked soon if you experience again. Luck

I don't think you should wait until May. Maybe you can get seen a bit sooner if you explain that you are having serious pain.

That does sound scary. Hoping for May to roll by quickly and for
you to get some answers.

Could be a gall stone, too.

Sounds serious, have you considered going to Emergency?

May sounds too far away for this.
