I'm 25 and have name changed as this is embarrassing enough as it is!
Since May I have had 4 episodes of stomach cramps and diarrhoea and 2 episodes of food poisoning/tummy bug (whole family went down!). Each time of the 4 episodes have occurred either when I'm ovulating or just before my period started and tends to come on during the night.
I tend to go to bed with mild cramps then wake up during the night and they get worse until I go to the toilet then they ease off and repeat until I'm 'empty' as such.
On Wednesday last week myself and my husband had what we believe is food poisoning - awful upset stomachs that were like liquid and mucus. This lasted a couple of days and then last night I had cramps again and have now got an upset stomach again.
Could this instance be because I pushed it to hard with food and it just didn't sit right?
There is no visible blood that I can see at all and there are no lumps in my tummy or anything but obviously I'm a bit worried.
GP can't offer me an appointment for weeks and when I spoke to them before they told me it's too infrequent to pass any judgement on and wouldn't be anything sinister or it would be more obvious/become a weekly/daily occurrence.
Can anyone offer any insight as to what it may be or really just any support that this wouldn't be something sinister based on what I have said above. I do suffer terribly with anxiety so find it hard to rationalise.
DH has told me to just calm down and ignore it but it's hard to do!!
Sorry again for the TMI
