Hi I have always suffered with stomach issues and in 2005 was told it was IBS.
I have had several issues with this over the years but always controlled it by taking tablets/going the loo and the pain would usually go in a few hours.
However,this last year or so the pain I have is now constant and can last up to 5 days plus.
The pain I am currently having right now ( I am on day 4) Is just under my bra line and feels like a burning/dull ache with strange twisty feelings in my stomach.
At the beginning of the year I had pains that didn't go and was told back then it was likely a ulcer and given Omeprazole which didnt really seem to help as I was still suffering pains quite a lot.I have since come off the Omeprazole and taking Acidophilus Probiotic.
I googled and am now convinced its Cancer,I took myself to the Doctors in a panic.
The Doc has ordered a blood test and a ultrasound-but now its just a waiting game for the actual appointments and then another for the results so I am getting even more anxious.
I was really excited for Christmas and now just feel sad and like I cant get interested with this constant pain and worry.
Please can anyone advise me.
