i'm recovering from a surgery to remove
appendix and part of my colon after some
really scared and inflamed tissue related
to a history of Crohn's Disease.
I'm trying to get to eating solid foods
after being out of surgery 1 1/2 weeks but
a couple of times I've had what seems to
be severe diarrhea and when that happens
its accompanied with my whole body feeling
hot and cold. I feel unsettled mentally
and if I lay down it feels like a yo-yo
back and forth from a hot flash to a cold
flash and then back.. Also, i get a
feeling of being disconnected mentally and
i have anxiety and it almost feels like
i'm close to having a panic attack. Its
like I just cannot be mentally calm and my
mind is racing and jumping all over. When
the diarrhea is over i feel drained and
I'm really tired. If I get sleep and relax
its gone and i'm better and back to normal
with not much anxiety. From that point i
may be okay for a while but if I happen to
have the bad diarrhea again i'll feel the
same.
What should I do about the diarrhea and
what are everybody's opinions about the
anxiety? Has anybody heard of this? Any
suggestions on how I can eat to lessen the
chance of diarrhea or anything else would
be awesome... its seems like my anxiety
and diarrhea are related.
