Bowel Changes - Cannot Stop Crying - Please Help

[glittery]

I spent a significant amount of time a few weeks ago convincing myself i was anemic, started off looking at the 'moons' on my nails and realising i only have them on my thumbs and then convincing myself they were getting smaller and smaller in front of my eyes. Obsessively checking my inner bottom eyelids where red as apparently not being is another sign.

Now im convinced i have jaundice as i have had a pain in my shoulder and googled that this is from your liver pressing on a nerve. To the point ive been trying to find pictures of my arms and comparing them as im convinced my skin is going yellow.

HA is hard.

Awww MrsEd, I hope you do not over stress yourself. I have a family member who repeatedly got jaundice (like 3 times already, he is 30 years old), and trust me, you would KNOW IT if you have jaundice, he looked very yellow, he was extremely tired, he could not move, and things took time to heal. The funny thing is it says on google how jaundice can be a symptom of pancreatic cancer especially if it happens repeatedly. However, he does not have any pancreatic cancer and he is completely fine. He just has a weak immune system. Thus, I don't think you have jaundice..you would know it if you have it.

But I do understand what you mean, I am doing the same these days. If one symptom gets better, I focus on another symptom. And if there are no symptoms, I focus on "what if in the future I have this symptom?" lol XD

Hey, just wanted to ask..since a lot of the replies are from ladies here.

Is vaginal discharge normal? I am having sudden vaginal discharge a lot lately. They are white/yellowish, they don't smell or itch badly, which is why I am not too worried. I know its supposed to be normal..but I always get vaginal discharge only before my period begins so this is kinda new to me.

I read somewhere that anxiety can cause hormonal changes, which in turn can cause vaginal discharge.

Weird thing is the vaginal discharge also began after my antibiotic. My antibiotic was only for 7 days, and it was amoxicillin.

I am not worried, but just curious.

It's totally normal, yes, nothing to worry about at all.

Do I remember you saying you're quite young? Your body will still be changing.

I am 23. Is that considered quite young? xD I feel so old sometimes (mentally that is :P)

Your body changes throughout your reproductive life, and stress can certainly increase the amount of discharge you get.

Dr. Jennifer Gunter has some great information on this on her blog, if you wanted to look it up - she's also a fun writer, too.

Thanks BlueIris, I will look her up. Glad to hear that this is normal.

Large amounts of discharge are also common with IBS

from the vaginal area?

[Carys]

YES ! The amount of 'movement' in the bowels seems to stimulate it.

Really? :O i thought it only had some rectal mucus or with stools or something, but didnt know its also related to the vaginal discharge.
