Hey guys I was wondering if anyone could help ! It started off  6 months ago now my lower abdomen seemed to flare up all of a sudden I was experiencing bloody stools on and off mucus in my stools and a faint feeling , general unwellness .. When I felt my stomach it felt lumpy , the flare up went down within a few weeks but I am now starting to get pains in other places ; these are my symptoms ;      Pain during urination ( especially after I empty my bladder ) , back pain mainly at the bottom but it also has started at the top inbetween my shoulders , nausea on and off , stomach spasms , pains in my groin , pains in my sides , chest pains occasionally , heart pains , a lot of burping , irregular periods , and pain behind my eyes , I feel as if when

I reach up or do any lifting there's something inflamed between my left hip and ribs ... I have had a sigmoidoscopy which came back clear , my biopsy came back clear on the bowel , I've had a urine test which showed no abnormalities , also I've had a transvaginal scan and they found polycystic ovaries but the cysts are small and DR has said they shouldn't cause problems ... I've also been tested for celiac which came back negative ... So I'm wondering now what the hells wrong with me ?!! It's very distressing .. I do not feel well at all half the time , before this I was very fit ( so I thought ) , I have been to the doctors numerous times asking for scans which they will not give as my other results were clear , but it's obvious there is something going on , my blood tests show low grade inflamation for 6 months now ! Help !!!

    Amoxicillin does cause colitus and that can indeed be your IBS. The antibiotic also kills off many of the good bacteria lining your gut, which can lead to a nice bout of diarrhoea.

    I would be confused if I were your doctor simply because you have arm pains, stomach pains, back pains, rectum pains, vaginal pains and now eye pains. Well, seriously how could that be caused by on illness that you possibly believe is IBS related let alone be of much use  to a doctor diagnosing an illness cause?

    It could be you have unrelated minor ailments that you relate to one illness. You know, the body hurts sometimes.

    Half the problem i suggest is all the tablets you have been taking. These werent designed for the body. Only the corperate drug companies tell you so and the docs use them as a quick cure.

    Get into your healthy eating, avoid the pills and remember; every person you sleep with, you are in effect sleeping with everyone they have slept with. Get your sexual health checked out.

    Have you had blood work done to make sure it's not your liver, or other organ issue? I'd start there...

    Hi! I also felt desperate about my problems with IBS before since if I don't have to increase the dosage of my meds the doctor has to prescribe a new one. Why don't you try searching for natural ways to cure your health issues.Or try herbal ones.I mean with herbal there's no side effects and no harm in trying it.
