I had 8 hours last night of horrific constipation.left me sore..weak & all my joints are on fire today. I took every laxative there was in the house! I don't have diohrea anymore just constipation. I don't have periods so I can't comment. Hope you feel better today x
My bowels are always horrific on period, was told it was because my womb is tilted backwards and when it swells up it can press more n it too x
Yeah I just had all my blood and stool samples come back as normal so been diagnosed with IBS, struggling with the constant pain in my side that was previously thought to be endo, but right before my period my bowels are awful (such as right now) and I feel really heavy and bleh
This happened to me from nowhere about year ago i ended up in a&e the pain was so bad, had emergency laparoscopy as they thought cysts or endo but nothing!
Had colonoscopy again nothing( they were looking for diverticulitis). It was all normal.
All my bloods and stool test normal.
Saw gynae i have got very tilted pelvis and womb which i didnt know meant anything? As in would it cause any probs.
I have noticed pattern though it happens just before i come on ie pmt time and on first day im on, i feel bloated sick and the pain in my left side is crippling.
Was u told what can help u?
Im having womens health physio so they massage all round groin and stomach which helps as used to get bowel pain ALL THE TIME.. now it just once twice a month( alway period time).
I take some pepto bismol usually helps have u any help to stop this.
I am gluten and dairy free have been a year now so know it not that
I find not eating so many other things helps, just discovered red meat is off the menu after 2 nights in a row in crippling pan after meatballs! Also got rid of fizzy drinks, caffeine and trying to cut down on leafy greens and carb overload too, which is proving tricky, but in being referred to someone next month to come up with a way to get round it. Other than that I neck peppermint tablets when the pain is in my bowel or antacids when it's in my stomach x
Im bit stomped as to why this could happen coz im so good like u but i have had steak and roast beef the last two days do u think that could b it???
The pain u get in ur colon bowel is awful isnt it?? Honestly think it hell!
It like my bowel just wants whatever in body out NOW and it feel like i been poisoned till it out.. this morning i was laying on the floor crying with pain in left colon /bowel
Not sure yet, meeting with the GP to discuss where to go next after negative results but she said it can be managed with diet or medication. Think they'll just get me to keep another food diary and identify all triggers and keep away from them, because since coming off the pill and starting a new, less exhausting job, I've felt pretty much fine apart from what I eat something I shouldn't x
Yes my IBS is always worse the week of my period. I get terribly constipated the week before and the as soon as my period stars I go to the loo constantly. Starts off with cramps and a lot of hard work going and then turn to D.
Sometimes I get really bad pain, it comes over me all of a sudden. I sit on the loo , I get really hot and sweaty, like at hot flush and feel like it might pass out or throw up. Then as soon as I poop it goes off again. Its like a massive squeezing cramp. I need to drink more water the week before my period to stop dehydration. Your body takes fluid to your uterus for your period so body gets dehydrated in other areas e.g bowls.
Was so anal( excuse the pun) when i first got it. I went gluten dairy sugar processed food free and i also only ate little and often as i was Told my colon couldnt cope with big meals and i stuck to it like glue but since xmas the bigger meals started creeping in so i gone back to little and often as of today.
I was also told to always have a glass water after meal to help flush it through system and stopped doin that to.
So as of today i need to start being more aware again i think.
Yes little and often does help and yes I am also processed food free. I makes a big difference. Hospital appointment on 18th. Fingers crossed they will want to remove my gallbladder. Keep to your strict plan (it does help) and go to see your doctor.
Coconut is my go to for most things as i have to b abit careful as i am anaphylaxis to shellfish and seafood so anything with some fish oils i cannot have as some do have traces of these in.
I can have fish thought but it the oils i have to b careful with also vitamins as some contain it to.
So not only do i have ibs, fibro( or eds ) i also have to b careful with what i take.
My whole family are severely alergic to it so no shocker i was brought up knowing what to look for but since i had the antibiotics that gave me liver failure i have gained alot of other alergies i never had before... i never really had ibs before , yeh i had dodgy stomach now and again but nothing major until i took them. Im hopeing il kind of grow out of it lol. Mayb give it year and my body will get stronger and all the other things will b able to b intorduced in.
I eat mainly plant based ie with butter milk yoghurts custards all the basics.
Cococnut oil is my go to oil and i make my cream cheese with that.
Everything else i eat bland and boring im afraid, lots of spinach, cale, spring green,green beans, salads, chicken turkey.
Even given up pork and red meat now.
I do not like cheese at all never have. Only cream cheese and i can only just stand that...
