For years now, I have had a digestive problem. It use to be where I had to take turns between sitting on the john to poop, or standing over it to throw up. NOW there is no time to decide which to do, as they come simultaneously.
I just had another bout of this, and it seemed to be one of the worst. The poop is fairly soft, like mud, and the more I go, the looser it gets... I have to have a bucket with me while sitting down, and I completely empty my stomach contents, or dry heave if I haven't eaten anything.
I feel absolutely terrible when this is going on.
I have no medical insurance ( I am 61 and can't get on hubby's Medicare....fall between the cracks in Obama's plan.
When I have confronted doctors about this in the past, they just guess at what it is, anything from lactose intolerance ( I don't like milk and eat very little dairy products, if any)....or IBS . When I google "puking while pooping", it leads me to the Crohn's pages, but I don't think it could be THAT. I just know lately I feel like a shook up can of soda, especially just above the pubic area.... like the lower part of my SMALL intestine, if anything... hard to explain.
While my husband was at a doctor last week, I tried to mention my problems to his doctor. He felt perhaps it is because I have had 4 c-sections and a hysterectomy, that perhaps I have adhesions.
It may be time for a doctor's appointment, whether I have insurance or not, but I am wanting the most accurate test done without going thru all the preliminary tests that suck up my money. This doctor said they now have a small camera that you swallow for diagnosis.
What test might be the best ones to get. Oh, by the way, I had my gall bladder out 2 years ago, so even though I thought THAT might be the culprit years back, evidently getting it taken out hasn't cured the problem.
