It Not Time to Panic Yet

For few days now, I experience occasional pain in my abdominal area just beside the navel. The pain is like that emitting from a sharp point or sometimes it’s like the one from a scratch. The interval of the pain though is not that short and still bearable. I would schedule myself for some lab tests this Monday and I would wait for the result first before heading to the doctor’s clinic. I think that Ultrasonography is not necessary at this time. I would wait for the doctor’s assessment first and see if there would be other lab procedures still to undergo.

Yes, I would wait considering that the procedure is a bit costly. I would go for the usual blood tests first and will see if their would be any result that is suggesting good or bad.

I believe that there's no urgency to do that yet. The pain is bearable and not persistent. It's also occasional but of course we should not neglect what's our body telling us.

It’s good to get anything unusual checked out by a doctor. I hope it’s nothing.

This scares me a bit. I hope it's nothing serious and easily treatable.

I imagine something based on the suggested symptom but I'd like not to think too much about it as of now. Whatever will be the outcome, that is one thing to be accepted. But of course i'll be glad if their is nothing serious.
