Feeling bloated, mild cramps

I’m posting for a sense-check, hope this is ok…been feeling bloated almost continuously for 2-3 weeks, some discomfort, bit like the the beginning of period pains but never getting worse.

It’s not a period (wrong time and also because I am 53) and it’s not triggered by any particular food (not eating any differently and generally have a fairly ok diet with loads of fruit and veg).

I suspect I need to book an appointment with the GP this week to rule out anything sinister but just want to make sure I am not being paranoid…thanks.

Hello - I just posted something similar? How are you now?

@Viogner I went to the GP who was great and fast-tracked me for an urgent appointment, did blood tests and a review and then sent me for an ultrasound. I am still waiting for a follow up appointment with a gynaecologist but the ultrasound found nothing scary but probable fibroids and endometriosis/adenomyosis. Good luck with yours - I feel a lot better now as well so hope you go the same way.
