question about abdominal pains

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

Just a question about upper abdominal pain. For the past 5 days, I've had intermittent upper ab pain that kind of feels like knots in my stomach. It doesn't feel like a normal stomach ache and I am eating/going to the bathroom okay. No other symptoms along with this except for the Still's rash which comes and goes once in a while, but I've had that all this week too. The pain is up near my ribs in the middle, but seems to be in my abdomen mostly and hurts somewhat when I touch it there. Having some back pain as well, but don't know if that's related or not. The pain is not excruciating, just very uncomfortable, esp. if I'm sitting because then I tend to hunch over a little. I've never had ab. pain before with Still's, even when I had the enlarged liver and spleen, but I know some people do get this symptom. Does this sound like a regular Still's symptom to anyone? I thought I was pretty much done with the systemic stuff, that's why I'm not sure what this is. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks for your help and Happy Easter to those are celebrating!
