When a Stomachache Needs Medical Attention
Have you ever had a stomachache that makes you wonder, is this more than just a stomachache? You're not alone perhaps every time I have gas pains I wonder if I something more serious is going on down there.
Sometimes it is just hard to tell with our bodies, so I was thrilled to see this list of symptoms that would indicate that tummy ache is something more (and may even warrant a trip to the hospital):
- Very sharp, severe and sudden pain
- Fever along with your stomach or abdominal pain
- Vomiting blood, or having bloody diarrhea
- Soreness or tenderness in the abdomen
- An abdomen that is hard and rigid
- Inability to have a bowel movement, particularly if you are also vomiting
- Pain in the chest, neck or shoulder
- Dizziness or lightheadedness

To offset the cost increases of cookie ingredients, Girl Scouts of the USA made the decision to shrink its cookie boxes by a centimeter, package fewer cookies into boxes of Thin Mints, Do-si-dos, and Tagalongs, and reduce the size of its Lemon Chalet Crèmes. According to the organization, the cost of flour rose by 30 percent, assorted cooking oils by 40 percent, and cocoa by at least 20 percent.
