Diagnosed with IBS 3 years ago.
Tried fodmap diet which worked for a bit, then fell of wagon - went in again at beginning of year - made no difference.
Constantly bloated, windy, sore and can't wear anything on waist. I can hardly eat - I just feel so uncomfortable and full. I feel I want to go to the loo all the time to feel better. And I wee a lot too. I rang docs because its so bad and when I go to the loo it is full of air and in bits too (sorry if tmi). I've just started spotting brown blood a week after my period. I have NEVER had breakthrough and I'm 46.
Docs have booked me for a blood test, had one 3 years ago and had raised marker for cancer (I want to say cra or bra something?) Had a pelvic ultrasound and was given all clear. I've also got pots for 2 samples (😳).
I'm not panicking but I just wanted to hear anyone's experience of either this kind of thing - be it bowel stuff or ovarian.
Thank you.
