Meds And Severe Stomach Pain

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Tyler, TX

Does anyone think codeine can cause severe upper abdominal pain? I’ve been to pcp, ER and GI doctor in the last 2 weeks. All say IBS?!?! I am having a hard time accepting that diagnosis. Pain is now going on 4 weeks. It Started 2 1/2 weeks after I began taking Tylenol 3 with codeine, 2 pills daily. On top of several other new medications over the last few months. Xray, CT scan and labs all came back normal. Or does just horrific pain pop up out of nowhere for no reason with this disease?!?!

Sorry you are struggling with stomach pain. Bland diet, probiotic and antigas/antacid tablets have helped me a little. Hope you feel better soon.
