discomfort in abdomen
Posted , 6 users are following.
Hi I have been suffering with discomfort all over my abdomen, I have a burning sensation just above my belly button below my breast and my abdomen seems to be distended. I have a feeling of fullness my ribs hurt both sides , I always have a lot of wind. The pain seems to travel around in different areas. The doctor told me I had Ibs but I don't agree as I thought with IBS you had constipation followed by diahrea , I feel like I have a knot in the middle of my abdomen does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi Pollyanna, I think this sounds like IBS completely. ask for a second opinion if you wish that's your choice, you could explain your symptoms to your doctor and they maybe able to alter your medication so it works better. I wish you luck getting the correct diagnosis or medication can be a nightmare, but fight for it and you may get the correct medicine and help for your stomach.

Ibs doesn't have to be diarrhea and constipation. You can have both or just one of them. In fact people are usually diagnosed with D or C version. Your symptoms do sound very much like ibs. I too have the burning stomach feeling on occasion . The distended belly , pain and fullness are classic symptoms.
