Tummy and bowel issues

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hello all,

Do any of you have trouble going to the bathroom, especially first thing in the morning? I have to sit there for a bit before there's any movement. Then sometimes I get this nervous rumbly feeling in my stomach. Anyone else get this?

      Hi Gypsy,

      You said things have calmed down for you now. Other than changing your diet and drinking water, what else have you tried to do to make your symptoms calmer? What has worked for you?

      Well I definitely still have my symptoms they rotate all month long, but seems like what I had at first when all this first hit me has calmed down for sure since then, example my anxiety isn't so crippling anymore and it was really really bad, I still get it but not as bad, what is bad bad for me right now is my migraines and the dizziness nausea off balance you get with the migraines.. So I think that these symptoms just pretty much calm down on their own as time goes by for me as if they run their coarse..I can't take any hormones because of breast cancer in my family and I had a hysterectomy for pre cancer cells on the cervix and they thought the uterus but it had not made it into the uterus after my hysterectomy, so I'm not a candidate.. TBH I just watch what I eat lots of water and walking and yoga stretching, and I keep as busy as I can, and all that helps a lot..and when I feel really bad I stay in and sometimes I stay in bed if its a really really bad day ...

      I can relate to having the bad anxiety in the beginning of all of this too. That definitely has mellowed out for me also. Like you said, I still get it but it's relatively mild compared to how it was before. I'm glad you made the decision to have the hysterectomy, smart move. Yeah the migraines are a beast! I had a horrendous bout with them in the beginning and recently last September. They come and go. Right now my issue is digestive and tension in the back of my head and neck. I will be glad when all of these symptoms settle down for good.

    I take magnesium at night for aches/pains and sleep. I think it also helps me go in the morning with no problems.
