Can someone tell me what's wrong with my stomach? Its killing me?

[Anonymous]

I have anxiety problems and in the past when I got anxious it usually brought on nausea and abdominal discomfort and occasional loose stools.

But a few months ago I lost my appetite because when I ate, I'd get nauseous and get tummy pain. This lasted a month or so but seemed to resolve for the most part.

But starting a few weeks ago, I'm in pain at least once a day. It has gotten to a point where almost every food causes a dull, mild ache in my stomach and 5 times out of 10 I'll get a cramping in my lower stomach later. Sometimes the cramping is so intense that I think I need to go to the ER but it goes away quickly, sometimes I need to go #2 and sometimes I don't.

Over the summer I experienced frequent constipation, now I get loose stools more often (but not often. Maybe 3-4 times lately.)

My anxiety makes it worse and may even bring it on sometimes but I know that it isn't the main cause. I'm thinking IBS cause my dad has it but he isn't in pain nearly this much.

What to do? I really don't wanna do to dr

It does sound like your anxiety is causing lot of this to happen and
you could have IBS or you could have Lactose Intolerance.

The signs and symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome can vary widely from
person to person and often resemble those of other diseases. Among the
most common are:

Abdominal pain or cramping
A bloated feeling
Gas
Diarrhea or constipation — sometimes
alternating bouts of constipation and
diarrhea
Mucus in the stool

Lactose intolerance is usually caused by a deficiency of an enzyme in the body called lactase.
Symptoms can include abdominal cramps, bloating, and diarrhea.
Treatment focuses on avoidance of dairy products, use of lactose-free
products, or the use of lactase supplements.

I have a sister in the family who has Experienced very Bad Anxiety for years. On top of this, she has had bowel problems, such as Lazy bowel syndrome, has had gall bladder problem and still goes through problems with her food and bad bowel problems.
It's time to see a doctor and allow him or her to guide you in th eRight direction. You see that IBS runs in your own family, no matter how bad dad's 'Pain,' you could still be Your.. Gain.
As far as the Anxiety goes, it will Not Go away any day. You need some medication that you can take so it can Make this condition easier to live with.
Good luck and make that appointment ASAP. xxoo
