Hi Sonia,
So the good news is that you know nothing untoward is going on. 👍🏻
It certainly sounds like IBS, especially if you go through ‘normal’ periods and then have a change associated with cramps.
I’m just so scared they missed something 😞 idk if going to the restroom like that is even normal..
Think stress is a big contributor to IBS. I have had similar problems still nothing found but keeping a food diary was my first course of action. You soon discover the foods that trigger these bouts. Have a go see if it helps.
Yea I’m stressing a lot .. was your stool ever like that?
Yes, I get stool like this.
Really ? Exactly like this ? Thick and than super thin ? You have ibs ?
Yes, exactly like that and yes I have IBS. But my husband who doesn't have IBS gets it like this as well sometimes!
Hmmm ... i got really scared when i seen that .. they still can’t figure out what’s wrong with me..
It sounds like IBS to me. After all IBS is just a name for anything left when they have dismissed everything else!
Is amylase in blood and urine normal?
Hey
After years of ibs related problems i know ur pain....
I would go from ibs c to d....
Never a day went past i didnt have gut ache by the evening....
Then i had a dose of antibiotics for a tooth infection ( metronizadole) has a massive allergic reaction and ended up in hosp for week on life support. Got through that but it left me with really had stomach .. it was severe...
I eventually paid to see a specialist who explained that my gut was bare of any good gut bacteria because of all the drugs and i now had sibo\ candida.
She put me on a diet and lots of supplements and said “ if u take it seriously and do this for 6-8 weeks it will go”.... i did and it did...
I still stick to most of it and still take the supplements 3 years later and in that time i have had two flare and that was my own stupidity eating stuff i know i cannot.
The picture looks like candida or sibo... have u taken any dugs.. antibiotics?
This stomach problems suck ! I’m sorry you had go through that. I have taken lots of pain medicine before all this started because for every little thing that would I would take pain medicine. And antibiotics I just Started I think Monday and the picture is from Sunday. I hon Don’t know what Candida and sibo are ?
Candida is a kind of fungus and SIBO is small intestines bacterial overgrowth. You can have your stool tested for candida and other bacteria. For SIBO you need a breath test.
Candida or sibo is when ur ruin ur gut bacteria health .. can b through pain meds but mainly bad eating.. alcohol and ANTIBIOTICS.
The gastro explained it to me like this..imagine ur gut is a garden and u have all these lovely plants and it all pretty lush and green but then someone pours weed killer all over it and everything dies and goes brown ..
That is sibo / candida...
So antibiotics will kill infections and bacteria but it will kill ur good gut health...
so u need to really get ur gut healthy...
Probiotics probiotics probiotics....
It may make u feel sick abit at first as the bad bacteria will try to kill it.
Yakults.. actimels....
A good digestive enzyme.
Peppermint capsule...
And a thing called DIDA from holland and barratt or amazon...
Then food wise u have to really watxh what u eat coz there certain food it loves...
So red meat
Sweet stuff
Alcohol as it sweet
Gluten
BUT MOST OF ALL YEAST.. yeast feeds bad bacteria as it is yeast...
So u eat bread or drink a hoppy yeasty beer u basically feeding it.
I kept getting really ill after bread like seriously and that was why..
Did this 3 years ago and never eaten gluten or bread since...
Never had a stomach problem since.... aless im stupid and eat bread or red meat
