I was recently diagnosed and I feel like all that consumes my brain is bowel movements. When to worry, what's "normal".... I get nervous if I have too many bowel movements, too little bowel movements, too loose or too constipated.
Here's what's been going on... about a week ago, I woke up a little nauseous and ended up on the toilet with D about 11 times in the matter of a few hours. I called my dr and by the time he got back to me (later that afternoon). I didn't have the urgency or the nausea so I didn't call him back (i missed his call). Now it seems like one bowel movement is complete D and the next takes effort to get out. I sometimes even go to the bathroom because i feel like I need to go but I can't.
A little background after my surgery, my stools were pretty regular in time and consitancy. I would go in the morning and then after almost every meal and they never took any effort. My husband always laughed at how quick I was in and out of the bathroom..I assumed this would be my new "normal".
The difference in my stools from one to the next has me wondering if something is going on like an obstruction or something? From what I read online, I would have stomache pains, fever etc and I don't have any of that.
I don't think it matters but in case it does..... two weeks ago, I turned my head and heard my head and my neck made a "pop" sound and after that I could hardly move my neck. I ended up at the chiropractor who did an xray and said I had a ton of inflammation in my neck. 3 days of therapy and my neck is better
anyways.. do you think the inconsitant BM's is concerning?
