Upset stomach every morning before work

[mnhjbgyhgh]

TMI, sorry:

Every morning before work I have a bad stomach with really loose stool and lots of wind. I have to get up early to give myself an extra hour before work as I get 'waves' of it. It is only ever on work days. It's really getting me down. On non-work days I'm fine.

I have gone through every possible cause in my head. I have started to eat very blandly on my work days with lots of fibre and it has made no difference. I am very active at work (always on my feet walking around) with long 12 hour shifts, so I'm wondering if that is a possible cause?

I do also wonder if it's anxiety. I am anxious in general but I feel really happy and secure at work. I work in a small team and I feel really competent and confident in my job role and responsibilities. There is nothing anxiety-triggering in my job (e.g. no presentations or big meetings) so I feel like I don't feel enough anxiety about work to warrant this.

Has anyone experienced similar or have any advice?

Sounds like it could be anxiety with the fact that it only happens on work days. You could be almost subconsciously anxious which could maybe cause these symptoms.
I used to experience this when I was still at school and it was awful as I would panic incase it happened when there was no toilet etc.
Maybe try to go to the GP about it (I never did as I was an embarrassed teenager lol)

I had that a couple of year's ago. The most awful churny, windy stomach with loose stools and a general feeling of anxiety. It was ages before I realised that it was anxiety over going to work.
I went to see my gp who gave me a very low dose of propanol to take whenever I felt I needed it.
It was like a miracle. I take it the night before work, if I need it. I wake up absolutely fine. I only take it very occasionally now.

Hi Maybe have less fibre so you don't have the urge to poo soo much? Do try that
