    Ok, so Im getting myself stressed....

    As you all know Ive been having tummy issues for a few weeks now. About 6/7 trips to drs, and one trip to A&E. All the Drs and the A&E consultant have all said its IBS. My GP said to me on Wednesday that its typical IBS and is sending me to a colorectal specialist as she 'can't convince me' that it is IBS.
    Ive had blood tests, abdominal exam 3 times and a rectal exam.
    I'm just so worried I have cancer.

    My symptoms (not all at the same time):
    Cramps after eating
    Cramps that go with a BM
    Cramps that sometimes stay a bit after a BM
    Constipated
    Normal BM
    Diahorrea (from loose to watery)
    Bloating
    Wind (both ends)
    Need a wee - like an irritated bladder
    Mucus on stool
    Tender Abdomen

    I've been quite on edge all day about it - but am not googling.

    I get all of those symptoms if I get stressed, apart from the mucus, I've never looked for it! And I don't have IBS. Being anxious and stressed goes straight to your belly. I know it's not easy but try to relax. Meditation always calms my digestion down

    I am currently going through 95% of those symptoms. I haven't been diagnosed with IBD but I'm thinking that's what it is. Definitely trying not to worry myself too much
