Hey, hope you're all enjoying your Sunday.
So you'll know that I've been struggling bad for the past month or so imparticula and basically my worries have gone from ovarian cancer to now bowel cancer.
After convincing myself I was riddled with cancer of some sort, I took myself off to the dr.
I explained to her the following:-
Im experiencing
Lots of gas
Diarreah then constipation
Gurgling in stomach even after I've ate
Burping loads
Feeling full
After going to the toilet I feel I still need to go
She told me she was 99% sure I was suffering ibs.
I had blood tests to check for lactose intolerance, celiac, iron, thyroid and stomach/liver/kidney.
All came back fine, no inflammation in stomach, everything was ok. She just said my kidney reading was fine but could be higher.
Basically tho I'm still having all these stomach problems.
I'm scared I'm driving my family mad but also that eventually I'll have such advanced cancer that I'll die. Il dreaming mad, waking in the night having dreamt of a death, and just constantly, no matter what I'm doing I can tell get it out of my head that I have cancer.
This isn't a healthy way to think is it?
Please if anyone can just chat with me who may have ibs and can relate to me let me know.
Thank you
