Suffered with this for 3 wks, had a colonoscopy, abdominal CT (it was like pulling teeth to get these tests ordered and done), and they found only that I had an adenoma, and thickened intestinal walls.
No appendix, had hysterectomy, no ovaries, so I finally diagnosed myself as having IBS flare up. Doc at major cancer center totally dropped the ball and never followed up.
I certainly fit the profile for IBS and the GI doc concurred 2 yrs. ago. I have this pain periodically, even if not constipated. Now, I know what it is for sure and won't go get another CT unless I have fever or I'm in extreme pain.
Anyone else have IBS with constipation?
Yes.
Yes, I have it too, and really bad nausea
