CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP? HAVING PROBLEMS WITH STOMACH?BOWELMOVEMENTS?
Hi everyone I'm a 31 year old female with chronic stomach/bowel problems for as long as I can remember. Years ago I had constant stomach pain/diarrhea everyday. I've had several tests done such as x-rays cat scans 2 colonoscopys and an upper (GI) to determine what the cause could be. I was diagnosed with IBS and gerd. A few times I was hospitalized due to inflammation. I also had my gallbladder removed in January 2005. I still have stomach pain/attacks that are similar to the gallbladder attack. However for the last few years I've been constipated having a BM every 2-3 weeks. Over the last 2 weeks I've been feeling a lot worse. I've been having a sharp pain in my rectum that comes in goes in lasts about a minute. The same pain is on the right side of my stomach. I also get a warm sensation in my stomach that comes and goes. It's not painful and feels nothing like the burning from acid. Last Friday I took a suppository and was able to pass very little. Three days later I had a very large BM with white mucus/discharge all over it. Then the next day I had the worst diarrhea. Throughout the day I'm also having attacks that make me nauseous,throw up,acid burn,sweaty.dizzy Also I'm eating but have an empty hunger feeling in my stomach all the time. I have made an appointment with a gastrologist but that isn't until another 2 weeks.
If anyone can please help me with these questions I am worried
1. Are these normal symptoms for IBS.
2. What else could this possibly be.
3. What can be causing the warm feeling in my stomach
4. What could of caused the white mucus/discharge in my bowel movement
5. Why do I feel a hungry/empty feeling in stomach even after I eat.
6. Is it true that IBS is a made up diagnosis when the doctor doesn't find something wrong with you.
7. How come I keep getting dizzy,sweaty,throwing up and having pain.

    I have a very good remedy. I bought an espresso maker by chance, and stopped sugar (bcuz of varicose veins) and now only use honey. The amoint of honey needed to sweeten espresso is more than regular coffee, and when u drink a couple shots worth of espresso with honey, add organic 2% milk, guaranteed u will poop. Plus its yummy. Its like drinking al caramel and chocolate.. plus it suppresses appetite naturally. My husband lovrs it,plus he lost weight bcuz it naturally suppresses appetite.

        I just bought a stove top espresso maker for like $14. And it doesnt even taste like coffee, more like chocolate if u get the organic flavored coffee.

    I think you may have an ulcer- google it. The hunger after eating is a symptom for sure as well as the vomiting and ect.... The pains in the rectum sound like proctalgia fugax. I have it and it's pain right up there with labor. Good luck!!

    What's your diet like?

    Have you ever had a blood, urine or DNA/genetic testing?
