Can anyone set my mind at ease
Posted , 8 users are following.
I've been having stomach problems for a while now, mainly bloating really bad that I look pregnant, mainly the upper part of my tummy and cramping pains, I stupidly googled symptoms and thanks to Mr Google have convinced myself I have ovarian cancer and I'm sending myself demented. I don't have any wind problems but I am always struggling to go to the toilet but I put that down as a side effect from the medication that I take for my back problems, but now I've sown the seed in my head it's driving me insane, please could someone share with me the type of pain bis causes please. Thankyou so much

I think the bloating is relieved by a visit to the loo in my experience. For cramps I have been drinking peppermint tea. This is new so I can not make an informed decision yet but so far so good.

I understand frustration even if for a different reason. This week I have eaten many healthy foods including a large bag of spinach over 3 days that is and no action let's say. Also 3 bananas, raisins and sultanas etc.Therefore looks I am going to have to look at the laxative option for me too.
I think it is all trial and error.

it does sound like IBS I have the symptoms you described enlarged stomach so you look pregnant . Pains in tummy and constipation Go see your dr and have it confirmed .

So, It seems like in time you will have an official diagnosis - have Coeliac, h pylori and other causes been ruled out? HUGS to you! Maybe knowing it's not cancer now will help allieviate some stress and symptoms a bit...
