Diarrhea, Throwing Up, Bloating After Eating, Extreme Pain In Stomach, Difficulty Passing Stools. Diagnosed IBS. Possiblitiy Of Having Chrohns?
i have had stomach issues my whole life. I have had up to three colonoscopies and other tests as well. I have always had trouble every single time i eat i swell up so bad in my abdomi with bowel movements doctors concludede over years i just have irritable bowel syndrome. I do have hemmoroids and they do bleed alot. Its so bad now though i have had diaherra and throwing up since the fourth of july. but for years now especially the past year everytime i eat and its not that i over eat , the results are extreme swelling i look nine months pregnant. I do at times get extreme pains in stomach for up to eight hours and pain in back maybe towards kidneys, i cant pass a bowel and ive noticed after eating nuts its the worse. i call gthem my episodes. im worried there might be another issue and we just have not found it. is it chrohns you think. also my age is thirty eight i am 5'6 i way around 160.
Thanks for posting your query on HCM.
I am sorry to hear that you have had stomach issues all the time - looking into your symptoms - it is still importanat to get some tests done for coeliac disease, lactose intolerance, markers of inflammation, (this can be checked by a blood tests)
Also you must get USS done to rule out gall stones - having had 3 colonoscopies & presumably they were normal - it is unlikely that you will be suffering from Crohn's D - also I would suggest to get stool microscopy done & analysis done on stool sample for pancreatic enzymes (though malabsorption is unlikely)
It is worthwhile changing diet depending on what upsets your stomach as well
Hope you feel better soon
Thanks
