Hi ladies! I have severe abdominal pain about 3 times a year. So severe that I end up in the emergency room where all the doctor does is give me meds for the pain. They don't know what the pain is due to. I am seeking a knowledgable gastroenterologist. Anybody have any recommendations?

What can I do next?

Bet you its your gallbladder. My neighbor had the same thing and that is what it turned out to be. She had to have it removed.

Do you have a primary physician? I would ask him or her. I would think you would need a referral from your primary doctor, but I could be wrong. I am so sorry you are dealing with this. I hope you find a solution to your problem.

Mom, if you have insurance, see who is on your medical insurance list as a Gastro Dr ; next ask your family Dr of those who he/she recommends and get in asap. Good luck with this.

Dr. Cloud - he has wonderful references (you can google him), I used him, and was very happy with him. He is located right next to Medical City in Dallas (on Merit).

I hope you feel better!
