About four years ago when I was pregnant with my first and only child I started getting chest pains. Doctor said that it was heartburn, don't worry about it. Continued on to where I thought I was having a heart attack one night. Changed diet. Got better. Then the cramping started. Felt like menstrual at first. Then it crept over to my side. The IBS symptoms started. First it was only with certain foods. Then it got worse. I would be sick for days. The acid reflux started back up. I had severe pain both top and bottom. Then the puking started. It got so bad that water made me sick.
Three years later, I had my gallbladder removed after going to the ER and hearing that I had severe pancrititis and my liver was shutting down. After all the swelling went down they took it out. Everything was great. A few months go by, and I'm getting used to eating with out a gallbladder. Well, I never got use to it, because it never changed. Everything that I was going through before I'm still going through. Minus the acid reflux. I still have the IBS symptoms. If anything they're worse. I have trigger foods. I stopped eating my trigger foods and I lost all my baby weight and was looking great. I started to eat more, and more and the weight came right back. I'm now cramping more. I go days with diarrhea after eating a trigger food. It sucks.
My younger sister who is 20 has had CD for about 4 years along with Celiac Disease. My other sister who is only 16 is lactose intolerant and many other issues. I can go weeks with no problems. But out of no where I will eat something and be sick in the bathroom for days. So frustrating. I'm hoping to get in and see a GI soon. I'm tired of the bloating. I'm tired of feeling like rubbish and I'm tired of the pains.
But that's who I am and what's up with me.
