Could I have IBS

Posted , 7 users are following.

22 year old female. Over the last month I've been having abdominal pain. It started in my right upper side, my doctor thought it was gallbladder related but an ultrasound found nothing, it eased for a week or so and came back worse than ever. I'm always bloated the pain is on both sides now, it's a dull ache and very tender to touch, for two days I could barely eat and now the pain is in my lower abdomen and groin area and is sometimes like a stabbing pain and sometimes just an ache. It starts on my lower left side and goes through my pelvic/groin kind of like waves. I'm having more bowel movements and frequency in urination and the pain is starting to radiate to my back. I've been able to eat the last couple of days but the pain is still there. Could this be IBS

    Not sure it could be a number of things, uti or kidney infection perhaps? Go back to your gp and tell them whats going on. Best of luck.
