For JustSayin2 - Continuation of stomach and sinus issues Page 38 of 39
This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Toes feel cold and damp to the bone, fingers more outside. The sensation passed after eating, I was unable to do anything, had the urge to gobble down food was difficult to take my time and chew properly. Ive had this in the past when my stomach was acting up - perhaps not enough calories.

Update when you can about your condition now.
Its fine that you took Carb-v, although it has pain after about an hour after eating. However, since the pain was due to trapped gas, its OK. Carb-v mostly affects the upper body, above the waist, e.g. the chest, whereas Lyc affects the lower regions more. If something similar happens again, try Nat-s 6x: two tabs every 15 minutes if needed, but if it doesnt help after two or three doses, dont take any more.
Carb-v was already indicated based on following symptoms -
- Pain – Right under lower ribs.
- Difficult breathing while walking.
- Center chest burning.
- Desire to deep breathing but can’t get enough air.
Your previous updates made me reconsider recommending Carb-v, since your right-sided pain was mild and you said the nature of pain seemed more like a squeezed muscle. Chel, Phos or Ferrum seemed more appropriate, given your symptoms, especially the cold fingers and toes, the vertigo when walking outside with sudden hunger and feeling of inability to get enough oxygen. However, as there was nothing conclusive about the set of symptoms so didnt recommend anything.
Did you experienced cold sweat on forehead, sudden sinking in with vanishing of sight feeling as well?

Thank you, Ill keep these noted for the future.
On waking I feel tired and still gassy, tenderness in the area around my waist and under ribs, feeling fearful of sitting and of food but hungry.
Sitting or any movement that bends at the waist aggravates. Lying flat on my back and stretching out helps. Lightly rubbing the area helps.
Seems I can only digest very small portions of pureed food and light rice/vegie crackers with boiled pureed chicken.
I was very hungry yesterday evening and felt this was why I was having the sensations of not getting enough air and being lightheaded. Cooked some organic quinoa pasta with a little tomato sauce and a very small amount (about 1 tsp) of beef mixed into the sauce, Ate about 3/4 cup of the pasta. 2 hours later I couldnt tolerate the pain.
The pain was the most intense Ive ever felt, my whole body was shaking and cold - my husband was going to call an ambulance as I couldnt move at all or it felt as if something was going to rupture, like twisting a balloon with stabbing but no visible swelling - I thought perhaps a gallbladder attack.
After 20 minutes of laying flat rubbing the area, deep breathing and taking carbo veg, loud popping bubbles started going in both directions (up & down) passed a lot of gas.
Drank some pureed blueberries before bed and became gassy again.
feeling hopeless again like I have no future if I cant digest food.
Oh before the issue I had taken an afternoon nap had a weird vivid dream of crawling around inside a large white tent moaning and groaning in pain, dragging myself throughout the tent while a girl watched me - I was arguing with myself to stop pretending to be in pain while I was also saying the pain is real - I woke up drooling and cold sweating.

Yes I took a dry dose pellet of Carbo Veg when in extreme pain yesterday evening. Havent taken anything sense.

It looks like the problem may have been aggravated by gas trapped in right colic flexures of the intestine causing the kind of pain you experienced yday. Just to be sure can you use a diagram to show the area around the waist and under the ribs where the problem is felt?
What made you decide to take Carb-v ?
As you took a dry dose and are sensitive to remedies, you may develop some symptoms of Carb-v, but will go away. Your current symptoms appear to be the same.

Im not sure why I chose Carbo Veg, I was easy for my husband to grab and I thought it may help if it was trapped gas. Attached is a diagram circled in blue where the intense pain was felt.

It looks like its mostly right colic flexure. Trapped gas might have expanded that part of the intestine and pushed it into the nearby gallbladder area. Other remedies that might have been indicated Cham, Nux-v, Lyc, but due to severity of pain & pain occurring 2 hrs after eating Nux-v will offer greater assistance.
Better keep a Nux-V remedy soln already ready just in case if something happens again.

Feeling weak, shaky and starving again, tenderness still under right ribs - following the arc of the ribs towards stomach. Feels gassy with mild burning sensation in center chest.
Lots of belching while eating. Food rising back up.

Does your body feel cold? Does it feel like you need more air?
Other symptoms do point to Carb-v. If the symptoms are bothering you, antidote it with Ars 30c or 6c by taking a single drop of the prepared remedy soln.
In an emergency like yday, simply drop the pellet in a cup of water, stir only once, and then take a drop from the solution. There is no need to wait for the pellet to dissolve; the remedy will still work.

Just toes feel cold - Dont have the feeling of needing more air right now.
I can handle the symptoms.
Ah okay I would always wait for it to dissolve then stir 30x.
Ill be sure to do it that way if needed again. I already have the Nux mixed now if it happens again.

Try Nat-m 6x 2 tabs to see if it helps, if not then take Ferrum 6c or 30c to antidote the effects of Carb-v, some of your symptoms esp the cold toes already matches with it. Water and food immediately backing up is also covered by Ferr. (Ferrum Metallicum).

Do I wait until it happens again when I eat or take them now?
On waking I have lots of flatulence, moderate cramping in lower left side and pelvic region - feeling hungry. Symptoms tend to worsen throughout the day.
Hands and feet feel warm
Other symptoms on waking:
Both ears congested - left ear completely blocked may have to go to clinic to get it cleared tomorrow.
Acne on temples and cheak bone (Left)
Very dry flaking skin on Left cheek mottled with capillaries.

On getting up and moving around cramping intensified in lower left region. Now constipated but stool feeling acidic - passing only small firm stool with great effort.
ASmith2 yesterday
Try Nat-m 6x 2 tabs to see if it helps it covers some of ur above symptoms as well.
JustSayin2 yesterday
Took Nat-m
Ate breakfast without food rising up but felt filled up quickly though still hungry. 30 minutes after breakfast passed a lot of gas and belching, had a more normal but still firm bowel movement but the muscle-like pain under right ribs returned (mild-moderate) Seems to be worse when sitting or leaning to left side (which kinks the right side), better when standing, pacing or rubbing the area.
Ears opened a but, left ear still feels quite congested.
Realized calorie intake is quite low at a daily 750 calories (should be 1600-1800) may have to eat more often as I fill up quickly.

Food rising up again - should I take nat-m before every meal?
ASmith2 yesterday
Is it the same intensity as last time?
If a little less, then take another dose of Nat-m 6x, 2 tabs. But dont take it before every meal.
