First off, just let me say that there is nothing to be embarrassed of on this forum, OK? We have heard it ALL!
Let me see if I've got this straight though. You wrote the above post on the 14th of March and stated that "last Sunday I had diarrhea a lot and have not had a bowel movement since then." Are you saying that Sunday, the 1st of March you had diarrhea and have NOT had a bowel since? That is TWO WEEKS! And that is NOT good. It's no wonder your hurting! Hope this quesiton doesn't embarrass you, but what is your "normal" bowel habit? Everybody is different. Did you take anything to try and help, like Milk of Magnesia? At this point Mike, I would seriously consider seeing your doctor. I don't want to alarm you, but if you are "impacted" you need to get that taken care of before you wind up in the hospital. And yes, anxiety CAN throw our "routine" out of whack, but not usually for two weeks! And as was mentioned above, IBS can cause this problem, but you would know if you had IBS........it does not just happen overnight.
See your doctor!
Peace through Pooping
