Hi Guys

Well I am unsure about what to do, I have been off work now since Nov and only just starting to feel better but the tiredness is the worse, so I went to get reviewed at my GP since my last flexi sig I have been getting horrable twitches going up my backside causing me to jump these happend at anytime he told me I was stressed and I also told him that I am leaking from my bottom he said it was mucas and not to worry but it seems to be getting worse, his advise was to learn to relax and he suggested that I see a clcinal psycholigist to help me, so I agreed and then he signed me off for two months. I know its all well and good relaxing but im getting on edge about having all this time off. Any advise would be good.

Hiya

With the best will in the world, GPs are not specialists in IBD!
All very well him saying relax, but I wouldn't ignore mucus, sign of inflammation somewhere.
See if you can get an appt with your gastro, and get your Vit B12 checked too.
Are work informed why you're off? You will be covered by the DDA, if they start getting antsy about absences.
Make the appt on Monday, good luck
