Hi,
I'm a 21 y.o. female with many uncomfortable symptoms. I have chronic pain in my upper abdomen, as well as chronic pain in my lower right abdomen. Sometimes it spreads to under my belly button and even to my left side. The pain is almost constant, but it because 10x worse whenever I eat most foods, esp anything with fiber, red meat, pork, or grease. Vegetables make me incredibly sick as well. It starts with shooting and stabbing pains in my abdomen and turns into a throbbing pain on my mid-lower right abdomen. I have chronic loose bowels, but its not always watery diarrhea (average 4 times a day) however, if i have serious flare, it can reach 8 times a day. Recently I've been notices a lot of mucus coming out before I have a bowel movement. Even worse, there are times when the mucus is mixed with a medium red color of blood. The blood has only happened 3 or 4 times. Most of the time its just pain, mucus, and diarrhea. My stomach also makes God awful loud noises about 20 min after I eat. Its loud enough to hear in traffic, over TV's etc. I know sound means somethings is healthy, but these sounds just aren't right. I'm afraid to eat, I'm always tired, my whole body hurts, I wake up with severe night sweats, and I often get sores on the top of my mouth. What could this be? I had a blood test done for something else and everything (except low potassium) came back normal. However, the Dr did say I was extremely dehydrated. I have an apt on Fri for this and I just want to have some ideas before I go in
