Is this pain an ulcer?

We just moved to Wisconsin and my husband’s insurance doesn’t kick in until October 16 so seeking medical help will be costly.

I’ve had moderate to severe abdominal pain since Monday. Monday- Wednesday it felt like it might be my left ovary, but since yesterday morning the pain has moved to my middle abdomen.

The second I drink water I get a sharp pain in the middle of my abdomen. I’ve lost my appetite. I only ate Greek yogurt and had two slimfast shakes yesterday. I tried a bite of sausage but it caused tremendous pain. I’ve had nothing today. I’m afraid to eat.

I don’t have a thermometer but I could tell I had a high fever last night. I sweated it out but it might be low grade today. I almost went to an emergency room this morning, but like I said, we have no insurance. The pain isn’t bad when I don’t eat but it’s still present. I do feel dehydrated though. I’m trying to drink water.

Do these symptoms sound familiar? What do I do?
