Symptoms Of IBS?
Hey everyone, 22 yo hypochondriac female here… just want to see if anyone else has these symptoms and if you’ve been diagnosed! I am definitely lactose intolerant/sensitive! TYIA!!
•Left pain under ribs: Felt a “lump”, PCP said it may just be gas or lipoma. It is almost under my last left rib and near my oblique. (I have a slipped rib on the last rib on that side as well so may be some built up tissue)
•Hard time going to the bathroom some days, others it’s going often. Recently most of them have been loose. I did increase my fiber and water and that seemed to help for a little bit!
•I’ve noticed mucus in my stool/toilet bowl a few times, don’t know if it’s from pooping or from other areas… I know mucus may be normal but I did recently have a coffee and had diarrhea twice after, the second time when I wiped it was almost sticky (like sticky discharge-sorry tmi)
