Leg pain

[mithical]

Hi all.

So a couple of years ago I started to get IBS pain low on the right side. Had scans etc, to check ovaries. Turns out it was definitely IBS pain. I have had it again since.

I'm currently in a flare up with low abdo pain, this right sided pain is back as well. But also it goes into the top of my leg?

Just feels like an ache, has anyone had this?

Thanks.

I had this too, had an internal ultrasound for my ovaries too which were fine like yours. Currebtly waiting for MRI of bowel and full cklonoscopy results

Hope your results come through quickly.

Yes, I get this too. I think it's nerve pain. It seems to come and go.

Thank you. Very strange isn't it?

For up to an hour before a bowel movement my thighs and groin area become heavy and achey. It effects mentally. I become tearful and on edge. Its not just the pain I become angry with the situation. After the bowel movement I calm down again. It is very much a gut brain thing and I reckon a full bowel effects the vegus nerve but I don't see what we can do about it. It's just the way we are made.

I understand the link with the vagus nerve and the gut. But not sure it has anything to do with nerves reaching the legs. Mine doesn't seem to be linked to bowel movement.

I've had this for many years. It seems to get worse if I'm anxious. Nerve pain is probably the cause. Mine comes and goes quite often
