Seek medical advice from a medical professional. If you can't see the doctor until tomorow then phone the doctor's office and ask them what to do until then. They can advice you on what to do or get you to see the doctor today if it is an emergency.

Dude. Get to a doctor. We can't help you. Just make her cooperate, there's nothing to be afraid of, they just want to help. No amount of money is worth someones' life.

EDIT: So you ARE going to the doctor's tomorrow. Well until then, you basically can't do anything. But do this for me, have her drink a glass of water. If she keeps the water down (doesn't throw it up), then that rules out bowel obstruction which right now is most likely the worst case scenario. As there are NO home remedies whatsoever and it can only be treated through either surgery or anti-inflammatory medication.

When you say "Stomach" give me a general area of what you mean. Be descriptive. People say "Stomach" all the time when they can really be talking about their abdomen or the upper GI tract.

Oh, well I guess there is always the E.R, but none of us here are trainded doctors. Even if we where you are too far away to treat.

unless its like the E.R here, where if you need a pill you can come right in, but if you are having a allergic reaction and about to die you have to wait.

I dunno. Can she burp? Sometimes excessive gas buildup can cause pain. Ginger is known to ease stomach problems somewhat. I have a bunch of ginger candy and ginger tea that I drink often. If you can find it there's also a brand called Yogi Tea that has a Stomach Ease tea with all sorts of stuff in it. Tastes like an Indian's armpit but works like a charm.

Look, without being with her and doing an assessment nobody here can help you even if they are a doctor or a nurse (like me). It requires many questions about the pain, a look and listen of her abdomen and xrays/blood tests to make a definitive diagnosis. It could be caused by many different things and treating one might cause another to become worse. Example would be giving a laxative for constipation when the cause might be a perforated bowel.

Again, there is no answer but to seek medical advice. Period.

Sorry for posting in your locked thread Ro.
