Hi everyone. This is kind of an odd question but, how would I know if I had a bowel or intestinal blockage? I have been having abdominal pain lately (which isn't really anything unusual unfortunately except that it's on both sides) and constipation. I generally get constipation instead of the diarrhea aspect of Crohn's. Anyway, I was just reading about bowel obstructions and wondering if I would know if I had one. I took Miralax last night for constipation but it hasn't really worked yet....
Anyway, I'll finish things off by admitting that I am a self-diagnosed hypochondriac (which has definitely gotten worse since I was diagnosed with Crohn's. If anyone has had an obstruction could you tell me what to look for? Would I know if I had one?
