What Causes A Blockage Like Feeling In The Abdomen And Frequent Defecation?
last 10-12 days; unable to eat anything other than soup/crackers/toast; feel like there is something in my body/abdomen-ish area, like a blockage, but having, no kidding, 12-15 bowel movements a day... had blood tests and stool sample taken today; doc said results will come in about a week. Mother has histore of colon cancer, so I m slightly concerned.
