Well, my search continues, and I appear to be getting closer to the IBS diagnosis. My colonoscopy results just came back and the small and large intestine seem fine. My doctor is now wondering about Endrometriosis (spelling?) So I am looking forward to more tests. When I asked about IBS, he said, "That is a non-diagnosis. We need to rule out other things first." My problem is that my symptoms do seem to be, not changing exactly, but growing. This started out as an isolated pain in my lower right side. Now I have not only general lower abdominal pain which comes and goes, but also a line of pain above the belly button, and the latest is a crampy feeling in my stomach (upper GI) which has been getting stronger and more frequent for the last couple of weeks. This is worse after eating. I am almost afraid to see my doctor about this. He must be beginning to wonder about my sanity, and so am I. I haven't had an upper GI done yet, but maybe I need one. Any advice? Similar symptoms? I am just feeling so tired of all this lately, and I'm still worried that there might be something serious wrong.
