I feel like I have one... upper abdomen hurts and every time I push down on my stomach I get super short of breath. Could it be something else? Also very dizzy trying to go anywhere.

thanks!

Hello my Wife has that , I can tell you one thing for sure when she had that she could nightstand and was laying on the ground and agony there was no option but to go to the hospital it was not the kind of pain that you think about should I do something she literally was on the floor a complete agony and they had to give her fentanyl at the hospital to ease the pain I don’t think you have that

You could have trapped gas and her pain was not exaggerative by pressing the pain was there regardless and it was constant and very debilitating until she had the emergency surgery

My dad had one and the pain from it was regularly so awful that he was having a massive heart attack and assumed it was his hernia playing up! Those things aren't serious but they are seriously painful! If you think you have one get it checked out but don't stress about it. Never heard about shortness of breath when pressing on one but people are all so different.
