i was wondering if anyone else has had
this issue. Basically after 10 years of
the oddest alergies, mostly fruit which
causes extreme diarrhea, and some on/off
bleeding in the rectum. I went to get a
colonoscopy. It was extremely painful as
the doctor says " there was a great
fluttering in my colon" translation:
painfully spasming.. Thou theres no
cancer.. Nothing else looks unusual..
I often have this pain after eating.. 20
minutes before going to thebathroom..
Sometimes its soo painful its accompanied
with nausea. Sometimes pain just happens
regularly.. And I have to wait for it to
pass. Other symptoms i've found are that
painunder the left ribcage/bra area not as
regularly these days.
I'm really wondering if anyone else has
had/seen this fluttering in the colon and
they might know what it means. The
doctor says.. Ibs.. But thats what
they've been tellign me for 10 years
dispite symptom changes.. Any help
muchly appreciated :)
ps. I think doctors dont take me
seriously because i'm 25. A oncologist at
16 told me I was making it all up.. :@

Hi travelingminstrel,
my doctor also told me that I have ibs a
few years ago. I didnt believe him so
went and got a 2nd opinion, also went to
my gynecologist to check my ovaries which
were fine, so was advised must be ibs.
I dont get pains often but when I do they
are very painful in the lower abdomen and
sometimes just on one side. The pains
subside once I have been to the toilet.
Whilst going to the toilet I have also had
severe sharp pains shooting across my
stomach as well as sometimes having like a
bubbling feeling.
The only advice i've been given is to eat
small meals regularly, so am also looking
for some help with how to prevent these
pains as still getting them.
