Pain after every meal

[MimiC811]

Hello,

I been experiencing stomach aches, gas, bloating almost every time after I eat. The pain is mostly on the left side middle of my stomach. I am plant-based, and had a bowl obstruction when I was 11. I read about IBS, and all kinds of other possibilities but wanted to know if anyone else have experienced this. I eat very healthy and sometimes the food that would cause gas (beans, broccoli, etc) doesn't and some days it does really bad. I have a fruit smoothie for breakfasts and my stomach is usually super fine. Its always after eating solid food.

I dont want to see a dr yet because i am a hypochondriac and hate going to drs.

Please help.

Good morning MimiC811,

I am sorry your suffering like that, I am an IBS sufferer , and would recommend you taking a look at the IBS network health unlocked group, although I have not found the doctors helpful , you should get checked out to he sure it is IBS, they can offer you Mebeverine which is something that is helpful for bowl spasms and is stronger and more effective than any of the over the counter medicines you can buy.

Best wishes

Debbie
