2pm each day i get gas, bloating and
sharpe pain over my bladder area. Feels
like i should pas gas but can't. Hurts
so much i feel like quitting job, going
home, lying in fetal position. Happens
every work day. High stress job, but i
think it's food alergy related. I've never
been tested.. should i get tested?
When not working ( sometimes 3 months or
so i'm between contracts, i don't have any
issues ). In my job i sit all day at a
computer.. is it a bowel structural thing
that when sitting get's trapped?
Had blood, fecal, urine tests. Had barium
enema. Had rectal exam (fun!).. no
issues.
1. Could daily gas bloating and sharp
pains be related to diet.. what should i
'go-off' to try?
2. Could there be a structural piping
issue that could be corrected?
is there something i could take in the
afternoon which would null the pain?

According to your information, that your
symptoms (bloating and sharp pain in the
lower abdomen) happen only when you work
at your office and never at home when
resting and all the negative medical
tests, it seems to me that your problem
may be stress related. If you had some
“structural piping issue” you would
have the problem all the time no matter if
you are working or resting. A colonoscopy
can tell us if you have an organic
disorder in the large intestine. Sitting
in front of the computer should not cause
any digestive problems. Diet can cause
digestive difficulties but that should not
be related to work or an exact time.
Stress related digestive difficulties are
usually put under the category
“Irritable bowel syndrome” (IBS). You
can take a spasmolitic drug in the
afternoon to relief the pain.
