Question: Upper left side stomach pain

(Jennsis) #1

Hello,

I did keto for two months and then fell off the wagon. I have recently started again and I am having a sudden sharp/stabbing pain that occurs in my upper left stomach area. It only lasts a few seconds and then I feel totally fine. The pain has come and gone throughout the day. I drank pickle juice, but that didnt help. Any idea what it could be?

Thanks

Best advice is to see your medical provider. Most abdominal pain isn’t anything huge, but it can indicate serious issues. Better to know for sure.

Some people feel pain from gall stones on that side. Keto did not cause it but the transition in diet sometimes exposes the problem. IF you are constipated i would say it is still a electrolyte problem.
