Intestinal cramps

Does anyone have what feels like intestinal cramps? When this happens it feels like my whole abdomen is painful then all of a sudden eases after a bowel movement but is loose when I go. Its a very short lived pain. I do have adhesions attaching colon to uterus so not sure if this is the reason for this. Does anyone else get this? Also have endo in POD. Just confused as why this has only just started happening

I frequently have this issue, and also have a lesion on my colon from endo adhesions so I assume for myself that is the reason why.At times it comes on very suddenly and extremely painful, until I have a bowel movement which is really loose.

Awaiting for hysterectomy+shave of colon lesion (16month wait so far).

Maybe mention it to your specialist xx

That's exactly the same. Do you also have bowel attached to uterus? Sorry to hear you've have waited so long already. 16 months is awful. Really hope you get the surgery soon. I will mention it to specliast x

Not that I know of but my abdominal MRI 2 years ago showed both my ovaries twisted and attached to my uterus and caused a lesion on my colon. All my symptoms have got worse whilst waiting for my operation but noone is interested as im on a waiting list...

Oh wow your mri was 2 years ago and you still not had surgery? My ovary is also stuck to uterus. My symptoms have worsened too. Not sure if you're the same but I have daily pelvic pain when walking. Do you too? I know its so tough 😞 really wish they would do something to get the waiting list down
