Hello,
I have been reading this forum for some time now and have found it very helpful. My sympathies to all. I haven't had to deal with anything like many of the posts I have read.
I am confused about what is going on. I have battled with being backed up all of my life, half a century.
About 4 years ago I had swallowing problems and swollen lymph nodes in my neck. A CT showed several and I was hoarse a lot. My ENT sent me to a GI Dr since he felt it was coming from the stomach. I had an upper scope and he found; a pharyngoesophageal diverticulum (zenkers), H. Pylori, Schatzki ring, and hiatal hernia. He also found lots of inflammation. He dilated my throat and stomach (to stretch out schatzki's). He treated the H. P and tried to treat the inflammation with several things all of which gave me D.
I had a colonoscopy a few wks later and he told me I was road rash head to tail so was told I had Crohns. I was tested and found to be both fructose and lactose intolerant. Allergy testing this spring was positive for cows milk.
A year went by, no meds, my only symptom was the "ovarian cysts" that I had felt on the right side for 20+ years. I should mention that I have lots of scarring from my one child delivery.
This Feb my lower right (groin area) pain came and stayed. It has gotten worse and moved into my hip and upper thigh about a month ago. I was limping and taking left over pain pills. I broke my pelvis fall of 2011 and didn't need the pills very long so this pain was bad! ER 2 weeks ago thinking it was my appendix. An ultrasound showed everything normal and haven't run a fever.
I am having a colonoscopy this Tues.
Here I am finally getting to my question. About 3 days ago I got the D which is very rare. Still lots of pain. Then I get a white knuckle cramping D that was very yellow and mucus. Strangely, the pain has subsided after that.
Has anyone had anything like this? Could it have been an abscess that popped? I know it isn't an ovary anymore.
Any info will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
