Still in pain. It’s been 3 months now .. I had So many test done yet everything seems normal ... I had 3 ct scans (due going to the hospital a lot) but was clear, blood work (fatty liver) endoscopy (they found GERD, gastritis, and a hernia) colonoscopy which was clear, had a Gastro emptying test (still waiting on results) and an mri (still waiting on results) I get pain all over my abdominal (my right ribs, left ribs, my lower back, my lower left and right abdominal. Yesterday I freaked out because I had really bad pain in my left lower back took a pain killer and took a epsom salt bath and it went away. They also found hemorrhoids which my anus/rectum hurt at times but it scares me. What can it be ? I have really bad anxiety and when I get Pain i started to freak out and think I have The worse. I tell myself they missed something it misdiagnosed me. I did lost a lot of weight due to changing my diet around but gaining my weight little by little. They also did remove my gallbladder when the stomach problems started but yet the pain remained. Idk what it is anymore.

Im guessing IBS? it doesn't show up on any tests does it, and you had the normal tests to rule out anything serious
They haven’t told me about ibs. And I have really bad anxiety and I get A pain and overthink it
I’d join the IBS support network on this website and use that instead of the cancer one as you’ve had that ruled out via colonoscopy
IBS doesn’t show up on any tests so usually diagnosing it is a process of eliminating other possibilities first and then if nothing is found they use IBS and it doesn’t show anything up on tests. It sounds like that and if you google IBS symptoms I bet a lot apply to you. Especially the mucus in stool which looks like that picture you’ve sent?

I'm sorry to hear about your pain and discomfort. It sounds like there are still some test results you are waiting on, but if you feel there is something going on with your body still, perhaps seeking out a specialist for a second opinion would be useful to get some answers. I hope you get some answers and relief, soon.
Hi
I don’t want to assume you’re female, if you are, do you have problem periods? Gynaecology issues can include bowel problems.
It might be worth speaking to your GP from that angle, hormones can play a part in anxiety as well.
Have a look at the Endometriosis UK site, they also have a forum here. There are numerous gynae problems, not just this one. Quite often IBS is a diagnosis long before gynae is considered.
It might not be, but worth considering.
Hope you get sorted soon, take care 🙂
What’s a gp ? Sorry I don’t know .. and well i really hope it’s ibs.. I have Bad anxiety and when I start Pain anywhere i think there worse
GP (General Practitioner) is your local doctor. Don’t worry, or apologise, not everyone knows the term, I should have said Doctor.
It could be just IBS, when you’re in pain that’s normally coming from somewhere.
My view of when people are told they have anxiety is to check things out. Pain is rarely in your head, not saying it can’t be.
Last year I was back and forth, getting nowhere and a couple of times offered antidepressants. In December I went private and diagnosed with the endometriosis. Having one of the pill types helped with balancing hormones and in turn tension.
Unfortunately after an operation and treatment still getting pain, not eating, losing weight, so now looking at colon.
If you do speak to your doctor let me know how you get on.
Oh ok i see thank you. Yes they’ve ran test one me. Colonoscopy, endoscopy, ct scans, mri, hida scan, gastritis stomach emptying, blood work and still nothing. Still in pain. They said it’s my anxiety but I mean Idk .. I hope so honestly. All the test are normal now I’m waiting on the mri results. I’ve seen many drs as well. I jist Made a appointment with a obygn let’s see what happens there.
Hello did you find out anything? You are the same as me boils and mucus and abdominal pain and intestinal gas, can you tell me if it depends on the stomach or liver or pancreas or colon parasites or what? Hope you can help me
Hi Ares5, I’m fine now. They removed my gallbladder. They did so many scans on me. They’ve found gastritis as well. It was my anxiety that was taking over all this. So you suffer from any anxiety?
Hi, so you were fine after having your gallbladder removed ?? And how did you solve gastritis? No nothing but stomach and colon problems not pleasant! Now you have no more mucus or gas and how much weight are you assimilating?
Yes, it took a while to get better but then again it was my anxiety. And no still haven’t it. I have to take medicine for it. No more mucus and gas of course lol just not as often. I lost Tons of weight when I got sick. I went from 137 to 115 in like a month ... but I’m getting back to my normal weight .. im 125 now
No more mucus is ok and no gas too ! I have too much problem reflux gerd and your old problems in bowel
> Soniaa05 Although you posted your post quite a few months ago, I am replying to you anyway because I have information that may help you figure out what is causing your illness. Because they have checked all the things that you outlined, there is something that they haven't looked into that a majority of doctors today do indeed miss, for some reason. The symptoms that you have described are classic signs of a parasite infection. It is written that an extremely large percentage of humans do have parasites - something like 85% of us! Many, many people who have asked their doctors to test them for parasites have said that the tests come back negative - even those who are experiencing obvious symptoms that are those that are present in a patient infected with parasites, which I find very disturbing. Many people agree that for some reason, doctors in general typically shy away from diagnosing a patient with parasites - and no one knows why! The abdominal symptoms and affects you described are classic parasite indications - and parasites can also cause anxiety, weight loss, gastritis, and the entire area you described as where you have had pain, seems to be where your intestinal tract travels; your problem with the rectum and stomach are also areas that parasites can cause problems. Especially since you did not say anything about any of the doctors mentioning and ruling out the presence of a parasitic infection, that means they did not look into it. And, that's not uncommon! It truly escapes me why most doctors are not on board with that, since parasites are in 85% of us today! A few people said that doctors can make a lot more money on tests that are endless because they're not testing for the right thing so they can make a lot of money there - mind you, this is something that other people said who did finally find out on their own, that they did have parasites after they got frustrated with their own doctors misdiagnosing them. I actually joined this website to enable me to give you this information with the hope that it may help you since I had learned what your symptoms seem to indicate. I hope this helps you but don't be surprised if your doctor brushes you off about the parasites because it is an infection they don't like to acknowledge - others have said they had to take a stool sample to a private lab that was not connected to their doctor to get the truth that they did indeed have parasites. I wish you well -
You are right. I had the same issue for years I was struggling with my health. Doctors couldn't find anything lol.. first thing I did was to change my lifestyle. Keto/low carb lifestyle and parasite cleaner changed my whole life . I never felt better in my life and every issue I had left . Doctors are more ignorant than we think they just make mostly everything worst. Every human being has to do a parasite cleanse at least once a year.Its such a taboo topic for most people to even talk about ...unbelievable
