First stages of being Diagnosed - down in the dumps

[TheaGR]

I'm currently in the process of having scans, and have also been put on mebeverine to help, I cannot cope with how bloated my stomach is constantly, even to the point were I can no long wear a pair of jeans without feeling uncomfortable, and its now starting to effect me, as Im so self conscious of how big my stomach looks- does anyone else feel the same?

Hi ya I feel your pain I’ve only just been diagnosed! And I hate it bloated and pain all the time although I’ve cut out cows milk since last Oct ans that helped so much and also I take really good probiotics which I think have helped me maybe worth a try

Have they not done a laparoscopy yet ?

Yeah I think im going to try and cut out cows milk & see if it helps! And no not yet, just trying to push the doctors on getting things moving.. thank you for your help

I was given mebeverine which gave me loads of farts, trapped wind, bloating and heartburn so I stopped it.

To be honest I've been having the same symptoms when taking it too
