Hi Yogi Bear,
Any fresh complaints? Please discuss.
did your blood work or ultrasound show anything?? .hope everything goes well...anxious to hear back from u!
Thanks me236. I have a blood test and an ultra sound tomorrow, as I have had ibs for 8yrs but I feel this is something else. Thank - you for your responses. x
YOGI, I have "IBS" (Irritable bowel syndrome) and I have many of the symptoms you describe. I'll spend random hours (off and on) in the bathroom and I get weaker and more tired as the day goes on. I get no warnings when the IBS is coming on (I get a 'gurglin' in my stomach seconds before; that's it..) My Dr prescribed medication that helps a little better than ImodiumAD. I take a pill before eating out at anyone's house (so I don't spend all my time in their bathroom) and also before going to a restaurant or even for ice cream. PS--But I never have left hip pain. (we shouldn't self-diagnose and I truly think your Dr can help you keep whatever you have under control...)
I'm no doctor, so please talk to your doctor about your symptoms. S/he will probably want to make sure it's nothing serious. If it is, the sooner you get to your dr, the sooner you can fix what's going on.... Please don't ignore this--your body is trying to tell you something......good luck and keep us posted.
