Hi all

Just wondering if anyone else has experience of this frightening pain. Basically one of my 'poops' a day will be accompanied by crippling stomach cramps above and around my belly button. They last for a few minutes max and then disappear but they leave me drained and very anxious afterwards.

My GP is unconcerned and says its likely gas or anxiety but I've never known anxiety to cause such strong 'real' pain

I just want to sleep afterwards, I don't lose appetite but I do feel awful
