For the past two weeks, my stomach has
been acting weird. I have been
constipated, feeling a little bloated, and
have been having dirarrihea. I've been
worrying about a few things, for about a
few weeks (i had been worrying if I was
pregnant) but I went to the doc last week
and got a urine test which was negative.
My grandfather passed away last week also.
I know I am a worrier and I was wondering
if this could be affecting my stomach? Or
could this be ibs? Or just anxiety?
Please help.

Ibs Posted: 04-03-04 22:17pm
I have been going through the same thing
my stomach has been bloated for over a
week and I can feel so much air it just
wont come out, when I go to the bathroom I
feel like im not going enough its driving
me crazy, and ive also been worrying
whether or not im pregnant, im a week
late, I know nerves can have a huge effect
on all this, I was diagnosed with ibs a
year ago, but then I had a colnoscopy
which said I was healthy, and was then
told due to my back injury and nerve
damage that was the cause of my problems,
I reaaly dont know you should try to
relax a little, when you get tense so
does everything else making it difficult
for a normal bowel movement etc, I know
easier said than done I to am a huge
worrier over the dumbest things and end
up making my self sicker than I am, yes
nerves can be your problem

I had a colonoscopy for my symptoms and
when it came back fine, they told me I had
ibs. I am pretty sure that ibs doesn't
show up in those tests.
Angela1 - it could very well be ibs, but
since you are under so much stress right
now, it could just be temporary due to
nerves. Try to relax and go with the
flow. In a couple of weeks if you do not
feel better, then I would go to the
doctor. They have pills that help with
it. I am sorry about your grandfather.
