I'm 22 and have had problems with constipation for most of my life, I went to doctors in my early teens and one doctor told my mum I was attention seeking and my confidence in doctors was lost. When I was 20 my parents said to go back to doctors as things are getting worse with new symptoms like diarrhoea, fatique and extreme cramps, I went back to doctors had blood tests showing I was anemic and put on iron tablets, I also a sigmoidoscopy done which was clear. I was meant to have an X-ray done but there was a mix up with appointments and that was back in 2013!! I've been phoning my doctors every month and they keep forwarding letter to the hospital but still nothing.
I also suffer with really bad anxiety because of the unpredictable diarrhoea and it's so bad that I won't be able to work (I'm a farm worker) at the speed things are going that won't be long.
I just at a loss of what I should do and what is wrong with me, friends have meantioned IBD so thought I'd post on hear and see if anyone has something similar.
