This last night was probably one of the worst nights I've ever had.
Had some REALLY bad abdominal pain... I've had that twice before, but this time, it was much worse than before. It got to the point where I couldn't sleep because of the pain. Took some medicine for abdominal pain and intestinal flora, but it didn't help, so I had to go to a first aid post.
The pain was getting gradually worse and the doctor told me they couldn't give me anything for the pain before they found out what was causing it, so I had to lay down and take serum, but I couldn't even rest because of the pain. Did a blood test and a urinalysis, threw up twice (and had already thrown up once before I left my house), then I had to get ready for tomography, which took a few hours of waiting AND I had to drink a bottle of oral contrast (necessary for better results at the tomography). Ended up throwing up half of the liquid... The other half I managed to not throw up.
Fortunately, by then, the pain was slowly getting better, so I managed to get at least some sleep. Then I went through the tomography, then slept some more while waiting for the results. Then the results finally came and I talked to the doctor, but none of the exams showed anything that could explain the pain, it was all completely normal... So she prescribed some stronger medication, in case I get that pain again and the other medicine doesn't help.
The tomography did show something unexpected, though - a cyst in one of my kidneys. It's only 1cm long and the doctor told me it's nothing to worry about, but that I should get it checked with a specialist in any case.
I entered the first aid post before 3 AM, left when it was over noon... Now I'm feeling better, but I'm gonna get an overall checkup to see what's causing this pain. I'm not gonna wait for it to happen again.
