Hi
For the past few weeks, I have been experiencing a few stomach symptoms. It started to the left and the right of my bellybutton. Not really a pain - just really feels quite sensitive. Now it seems more to the left of my bellybutton, but quite a way lower down. Other times it seems more to the right side (not Appendix, not that low down) I don't feel it all the time, I never feel it when I am in bed and it is not interferring with sleep etc. I am taking Sertraline, so maybe this has something to do with it, as I have read that 95% of Serotonin is either made or stored in the bowel. Sometimes it feels like a twisting or stabbing, and then it has gone, as suddenly as it came. Is it possible to feel like this through I.B.S? Had my tummy examined a few months ago, no problems. Blood tests were all ok last April. I suppose it is possible that I have strained my stomach - do a lot of silly lifting and carrying very heavy bags. If it was strain, how long does it take to go?
Thanks
