    Scared and worried about stomach issues.......gurgling etc.

    For the past two weeks I've had almost non-stop left side stomach gurgling.....I feel and hear fluid or something moving around.....kind of like a plump plump, gassy liquid sound......
    I fear the worst.....anyone experience this same problem ?
    Thanks

    The digestive system gurgles, it’s what it does. You’re just hyper focused on it.

    Gurgling does not mean cancer, it’s not s symptom it’s just a feeling of things actually working.

    How do you know it’s worse? It’s always louder when you’re focused on it.
    Are you eating normally?

    It’s always ‘different this time’ with anxiety, I used to say that every single time I had an attack as a child. Health anxiety is no different.

    Feeling sensations of your gut working is not a bad thing, mine are loud too, I gurgle, pop, squeak any sound you can imagine. Even as I write this led in bed I can hear and feel it.

    Pain can be from many things, and even the most intense pain isn’t necessarily indicative of anything seriously wrong, tension and focusing on the area for a start, gas can also be very painful. The effect that stress, or not eating quite right/not drinking enough can have on the digestive system is huge. Being bloated can also cause this sort of discomfort.

    The sounds are normal, in fact we listen for gut sounds after surgery etc to ensure the bowel is moving! That’s a good thing! Pain is actually far more common than you’d think, especially in anxiety sufferers as a whole.

    What type of pain is bothering you?

    Please read the below message from Admin. You are posting about a lot of different things frequently. Perhaps start a thread where you can keep all of your worries in one place.


    Can posters, especially those who are posting a lot about a variety of fears please confine their posts to one thread.

    This helps others to build up a clear picture of what is happening and makes it easier to offer suitable advice.

    You may not see the pattern but usually it is there, especially if you are posting frequently about different things.

    Your co-operation with this would be greatly appreciated.
