    Yellow stool and upper stomach cramps. Freaking out!!

    Once again I am freaking out. I have yellowish stool/diarrhea with pain in the middle of my stomach above my belly button and below my sternum . it's not really pain but a cramping feeling. I also have alot gas rumbling all over my stomach. Really loud at times. So scared again of liver/pancreas cancer .

    Re: Yellow stool and upper stomach cramps. Freaking out!!

    Just been googling yellow stool. It's so confusing. One says yellow stool is normal than the next page it says it's not normal and it could be your liver but most likely you pancreas and you're dying. F%@# why can't this just go away. I hate living like this. For weeks now I've been having awful digestive symptoms. I going through perimenopause and my hermones are all over the place. With periods coming and going with no rhyme or reason.

    Sounds like you have a bit of a dicky tummy to be honest. Try to relax, as panicking will make it worse

    Logically thinking if you are anxious then frequent bowel movements are common. They dont have time to get to a normal colour. If you are worried you could call the doc but dont be surprised if they say it is anxiety

    The reason why the bowel movements are yellow is because they are traveling though your body quickly so food is not being broken down sufficiently. Anxiety can cause this and it's also common among those with IBS. You can have Liver/pancreas enzyme tests to determine if there is anything wrong here.

    I feel like this is it for me. With all the abdominal pains I'm getting there has to be cancer in there somewhere. All my symptoms point to awful things. Pancreas being the worse. My pains are all over today. I feel them mostly in my bellybutton area the most. But I also have them on both sides of my upper stomach just by my ribs. They come in waves through out the day. I could go hours feeling ok . I truly feel this is it for me. I'm so scared I wont be around to see the birth of my first grandchild. My kids keep asking me whats wrong and I just lie to them saying nothing is wrong but inside I'm dying and scared. I didn't think I was going die so early. I swear the minute I turned 50 My body just gave up

    You certainly haven't responded to any of them.

    Just to add to the above, you could also ask for an ultrasound or MRI. They are both accessible quickly if you have medical insurance.
