Worse after bowel movement

[Edgar77]

Why is it that even after a normal bowel movement that was easy to pass, do I feel very heavy even a bit nauseous. I have to lay down for 10/20 minutes. Just as well I took early retirement, but what if I'm out somewhere.

I experience something very similar. I've heard it's connected to the vagus nerve. Try searching on that.

I'm now getting the most excruciating pain after BM, particularly if it's a lot of wind. it's torture before and it's torture after. The pain just does not go away.

Me too. It’s as if bowels are all inflamed. Which I suppose they could be with IBS 😩

I’ve had faecal calprotectin (inflammation) and h pylori (peptic ulcer) tests. Both negative. Nothing to see, nothing to fix, only ‘pain management’.

Me too! No pain fortunately, just feels bruised. And I often feel queasy for up to a few hours afterwards. Its as though toxins have been flushed around my body rather than excreted, and all my energy gone down the pan!
