Churning stomach feeling

hi all,

this may have nothing to do with ataxia, I'm not sure.

I often have periods of weeks of being very aware of my stomach/intestines feeling like they're churning all the time. I feel like I want to go to the toilet but nothing comes out and even if I do go then the churning only stops for about an hour.

I know that other internal muscles are affected, so wondering if these ones are too. I have problems with bladder, internal vaginal muscles, anal sphincters - and who knows what else!!!! LOL.

Does anyone else get this same churny feeling?

thanks for sharing

I think ii is related to ataxia. Do you drink coffee? I ended up cutting down to one cup a day, if it continues ask for a prescription for ODANSETRON . it will help. Kathie

I also experience bouts of nausea and I have associated it with coffee. I was never like this before...what gives? Anyone know?

if you have ataxia none of your muscles work properly including the digestive ones.

no I don't drink coffee. I drink tea, and have been increasing the cups of green tea I drink lately. I also drink lots of water

I too have periods of nausea which tend to pass. It is either ataxia related or nervousness about ataxia. These r my thoughts,xxxN
