    Question Freaking out

    I know to listen to my gut instinct, no pun intended. But earlier I ate 3 boiled eggs, I usually get tummy troubles with eggs so I try to limit but sometimes they sound so tasty. Well I ate 3 of those white demons. I've been extremely bloated all day because if them. But no it's late and I have sour stomach and I have the craziest things going on inside. I've passed way too much gas, it's unreal. It doesn't hurt as much just a lot of activity. I have a banana and avacado intolerance which causes excruciating pain for a day and a half. But this is different. I'm so scared it'll make me sick.

    Its just the eggs! That's a lot of egg, especially if you know that you usually have trouble with eggs. I don't think you will be sick at all, I think that your stomach is just like "seriously, wtf did you put in me!" If you have pepto that will probably calm your stomach down, and stay away from the eggs!
    PM me for contact info such as skype, email, or facebook. Thanks!

    Thanks, yeah I think it was the egg. I feel a little better still have sour stomach, but I'm sure it will go away. I was just having a horrible night, thought it would never end.

    I think its just the gassiness from the eggs. You should be fine soon...

    Hope you are feeling better now....eggs give me gas too....

    If you are gonna give yourself eggs, maybe don't eat 3 next time maybe just one or something...sometimes when you eat something that you don't eat often is introduced into your system, it goes a tad haywire.

    I woke up and still had sour stomach this morning, and then I felt fine. But around 12 my belly started to hurt so bad. Right in the middle just below my belly button. I considered going to urgent care but I get so tired of the doctors saying its IBS. Like I'm going to go oh gee thanks! I feel better now. I've been so constipated and to top it off I have pms symptoms. I'm a mess.

    If you have been constipated, try a heating pad! Try some tea! I hope you are feeling a little better!!!

    You know, being a girl with emet, IBS AND getting their period is really sucky!!!!!

    Yeah I know! My PMS symptoms got 10X worse after my tubes were tied. I didn't find out till after I got it done how bad it affects you. I would say at least I'm not pregnant, but those symptoms have an end at some point. But no here I am 30 and that means I have at least 20 more years of this. The whole week before is horrid. I went and bought a bunch of OTC stuff so as soon as my chicken digests I'm gonna take it. I'm just too full for anything right now.

    And thanks, I hope this will pass I'm so miserable.

    I get the same exact thing kind of a sour crampy feeling and you know it's not going to be good news. I run to the toilet thinking I can't hold it any longer but it's nothing just cramps and maybe gas. But I know if I get that cramp it's going to smell aweful so I gotta stay in the bathroom. The only thing I hate about being a female. And my husband tries to understand, the poor guy, he probably thinks I'm a freak of nature. To be honest I think us females are worse than guys sometimes.

    We do have those wonderful moments where it is much worse than guys! I am have gone to the bathroom four times now, but only the first time had anything happen. It was just gas and cramps. I was able to take some midol and about 20 minutes the cramps went away. Now just laying here gurgling away!!! I hope you are doing good!!!!

    I've made a few trips to the bathroom and once it was barely helpful. Gurgling has calmed down for now, just have the belly pain. Now that I've had it for awhile I'm getting use to it. My whole family has intestinal disorders and my doctor in the past was the only one who cared to look into my problems. I've done all the upper tests which came back that I was inflamed and a hernia in my esophagus. But when I switched insurance (kaiser) they shrug me off, and it's infuriating. Everyone I know in my family has had appendix and gallbladders removed, and seeing what they went through terrified me. My mom had bad colitis and hundreds of polyps that made her real sick. Her last years were spent in the hospital because her gallbladder had gangrene and her appendix exploded the following year and got sepsis. My aunt and cousins have diverticulitis, and almost all of us are lactose intolerant and can't digest meat very well. But the new doctors just say IBS (I-Bull-Sh..). So on top of my problems, pms, and my emet I fear all those things happening to me.

    Hope yours calms down too!

    Oh that is terrible!!! Some of my family have diverticulitis, my aunt and grandfather. And my uncle has colostomy bag. So there are problems just not super close to me!!! Insurance sucks! I just wish when it came to the specialist that people get all the same care!!!

    Mine is still gurgling away. It comes and it goes. I have had one twinge of a cramp but that us about it. I am finally laying down in bed with my ginger ale and zofran at arms reach praying I don't have to use it and this is just an IBS issue with being worse due to period right around the corner!!!

    My aunt had a horrible flare up with diverticulitis and went to the hospital. They removed 3 feet of her intestines and some of her colon. It didn't help and she went back with more problems and she had one of those bags for like 6 months in the hospital. Her stomach acid kept leaking out the side of it and ate her skin up. She said don't drink soda you wouldn't believe what kind of acid it produces and the acid created from not eating is bad too. They accused her of taking it off but they just didn't put it on right. It was so horrible for her. I would probably just spontaneously combust.

    I'm sure it is IBS and pre period. I got the same problems I woke up today and my stomach feels hollow I've been taking miralax for a few days but it's not doing much but causing extra noises.
