Hi all,
I think i have started with another bout of IBS the last few days. I am worrying as always about the symptoms though. I am getting abdominal cramps and a vague sort of ache in my stomach...a bit like feeling winded....or the feeling you get in your muscles after working out too much (which i haven't). Sometimes it is on the left, sometimes on the right...it tends to move around. I am not going to the loo more or less than normal, have not lost my appetite, do not feel sick and have no fever.Just keep getting these vague pains and general discomfort. I am worrying in case this signals something more serious brewing and nervous about eating in case i make it worse. I am trying to not think about the appendicitis fear which keeps bothering me...and have now settled on maybe Crohn's or other serious inflammatory bowel disease! :shrug: I know deep down that i would probably have more severe symptoms if anything like this was really happening, but i still just can't relax!
Any advice or reassurement?
Thanks guys,
CW
