Gastro Intestinal Issues
I have been dealing with Gastro Intestional issues since July 2nd 2023 and they have not gotten any better. I have seen my Family Doctor and she test me for Hyploria which was negative and now I have seen my Gastro Doctor. They have done Gall Bladder Ultra , X-ray of Abdomen and Chest which all reported good . Also, done a stool series and checked me for various things which came back good. However, I still am having so much discomfort in my tummy and back area. My tummy sounds horrible . I do go from Constipation to semi loose stools periodically. It did seem to get lil better last week, but never completely gone. I called my Doctor and they are trying to get CT Scan approved and have scheduled me for a Endoscopy and Colonoscopy Augut 30th which irrates me to the max. I have begged to have scope sooner. I just want my tummy/gut to feel better and my back to stop hurting. Any suggestions between now and then. I am so so tired of feeling bad
At this time they have given me Carafate and Bentyl
Hi,
I’ve been having the same issues for 5 months. Mine appeared out of no where after a very stressful period.
I get awful gas type pains in lower abdomen and a very sharp pain in right upper stomach going through to my back, my three bottom ribs at the back hurt to touch. . I’ve had an endoscopy, ultra sound to check liver, spleen, kidney, pancreas and gallbladder, also stool test, all clear!
I’m trying the FODMAP diet yo see if it helps but after no pain today I had gripping pain in RUQ pain this evening that made me nauseous, I’ve absolutely no idea what’s causing it. Do you have this sharp pain? It scares me. It gets me down as it’s gone on for so long. I too go from almost normal stools to mash potato consistency. Lots of flatulence too.
sorry to hear about what you’re going through. Have you tried pre and probiotics? These are always a good start to get your gut functions back in order.
