Whatever has caused my stomach to be in so much pain and my bowls to give me so much trouble is a mystery and no one quite knows what has gone on. What i do know for sure is that today is the first day i can honestly say is the first day i have actually started to feel better. I am still getting wind and pressure in the stomach causing me extreme pain and discomfort. I am still slightly constipated although my bowls have opened and i can now go to the toilet again. The pain in my sides is saw and feels like i am about to split but its not as painful as it has been over the last few days. I haven’t been able to go anywhere or do anything as i have been in constant pain. It looks like all the medication i was on has kicked of IBS (irritable bowl syndrome) and it wasn’t until i got the last lot of medication that i started to feel a bit better.
Not only the pain in the sides and the aches and pain gets to you as you also feel bloated, can’t eat or drink properly, feel out of breath all the time and the back gets so much pain shooting across your back muscles no matter what position you sit in your can’t get comfortable. I have been to the doctors 5 times, had 2 telephone consultations, been rushed into hospital twice and had to have enemas on both occasions including rectal examinations. I have never felt so embarrassed in my entire life. Each day i have to battle with the feeling of my sides being so saw and my insides feel red raw. All my back muscles are constantly aching and just moving around the flat is hard work. All i can think of is i have infection somewhere inside my stomach. i know it sounds crazy but there's no explanation. There's no sign of infection when they test my urine and my blood testes were clear. yet i keep getting an infection in my tooth and the dentist won’t take it out till the end of the month but the infection keeps coming and going and making me feel rotten when it does show its face.
I have mentioned this to the doctors but its seems to have gone over there head. I don’t know what is going on or why it has flared up like this but i have been feeling really rotten now for 3 weeks and can’t wait for it to end. All i want to do is enjoy my holiday with my mother and step father at the end of the month. If i end up too ill then i will just have to cancel and not go as i don’t want to spoil it for them as they have been so looking forwards to this break. I am praying it doesn’t come to that and hope that what ever is doing this to me shifts soon and i start to feel better.
