im 31 years old and have both ibs and pcos.
scanned in oct 2013 on ovaries- all fine apart from pcos.

so few weeks ago, I began having twinges in my ovaries which I couldn't put down to ovulation as had just finished my period.
gp said she was guessing it was trapped wind :wacko:
fast forward 2 weeks and pains are getting more frequent also the scaries thing is last fri I started to feel full around 8pm so went to bed, I am still feeling full and slightly bloated but only the top part of my stomach :wacko:
I have to remind myself to eat but when I eat I am eating the same amount as before.
this has sent my anxiety into overload.
I had an emergency app at gp yday but she was just a locum who examined my stomach said I didn't show any red flag symptoms of oc despite there being several oc awareness posters in the surgery stating that bloated and feeling full is a key symptom.
I have also developed pains in both thighs, not bothersome and on a scale of 1-10 probably a 2, the thigh pain is just at random times.
the ovary pain is also a 2 and random , not constant.
left side back pain is present but not constant.
however the full feeling has been constant since Friday night, the dr prescribed alverine citrate for the ibs.
I am absolutely petrified.
I also had a couple of bouts of diarrhoea, now they have stopped, and because im feeling full, I have lost 3lb since last Friday :weep:
really do think it is oc .
im seeing my normal gp Monday.

With no offence, in the past year you have posted at different times that you have been scared you had pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, bladder cancer, a brain tumour, and now ovarian cancer. You do need to address the underlying issue of health anxiety.
