there is something wrong with me
I have been having so many stomach issues for the past few months. i have been having nausea every day for the past 4 years which the doctors never really did anything about. but the past few months everything has gotten so much worse. in around August I started having diarrhoea every day and feeling sick all the time. about a month ago I started getting stomach pains. I went to the hospital for it (I was worried I had appendicitis or something really bad) and they said I either have celiac disease or ibs. I then started getting constipation and was only going to the toilet about once a week. my stomach is constantly making really loud noises, when I move, when I breath, or just whenever. and I know that’s normal but I don’t think this is. can this indicate something or is it linked to something like ibs? I also get pain in my chest a lot, in my heart and also kind of behind my rib cage which always comes with nausea at the same time.
I got a blood test this week that was testing for celiac disease and other things like inflammation or infection and it all came back normal. The doctor told me to see a gastroenterologist at the hospital closest to me but it turns out they can’t see people under 18 (I’m 14) so we would have to travel 10 hours to go see someone else that can. my family can’t afford that right now so I’m here with no answers and dealing with constant issues and I still don’t know why.
anyway, if anyone has any advice that would be really helpful. this whole thing is stressing me out and really affecting my life.
thank you :)
