Hey! Been viewing these threads for a month or so, relating to myself but never get a true reflection so thought i'd post, anyway.
Background - Previously university, worked in another country over summer then came home and within a month moved to the Capital city for a job. 2 weeks into the job I started to get symptoms, after convincing myself I was dying and about 6-8 doctors visits in 4 months, I'm still not 100%.
What I'm experiencing started as frequent urination, bowel movement and gas. I have been treated for UTI, GERD and been told I probably have health anxiety which is making it all worse. (The main scare being cancer due to close relation and friends having died or beaten it). These symptoms have since subsided, especially the Frequent urination and bowel movements. However, along with these I developed a pain under my left rib cage which has got better but still cause discomfort when I lay on my front or bend. Also, an uncomfortable pain in my left buttock when I sit down, can't describe this but it doesn't occur when doing exercise or anything. In addition to this, the pain under my left rib sometimes turns into a pulsating and I'm also experiencing a stinging pain or itchy feeling around my anus sometimes (crude, but yano)
I just really wanted to post this and see if anyone would understand as my Doctor thinks i'm totally fine and have nothing to worry about, i just have this worry as its been so many months now. I'm a male in my early 20s.
Sorry for the life story, I just want some feedback :) Thanks for listening:bighug1:
