Other - Diseases - October 2006

Ever since I was a baby I have had a problem with going to the bathroom, at 15 I actually ended up in the hospital because I got so backed up and they said I was very lucky I did not do any damage, I went from a flat tummy to looking like I was 6 months pregnant ... The doctor finally told me a name for it,
ibs(irritable bowel syndrome ) and said I had a balloon bowel and should stay away from iron as much as possible.

Since having my son two years ago I have not had a problem with it but recently stupid me decided to start drinking ice tea which has a lot of iron in it (i know stupid me)....

Well now I have a large and hard stool that I can not get out and have been trying to pass it since last night, I even tried eating loads of junk last night to try and give myself diahrea.

I remember when I was little my mother use to give me some type of oil but I do not know what kind it was. The only oil we have in the house is pure wesson vegetable oil,is that ok to take?

He's going to die because of this. but he chooses to drink the poison..If you are a drinker, please ! No comments on defending a drinker that you maybe yourself. He has a belly like he is having twins. He goes in the hospital only for them to drain him of stomach fluids ( 5-7 liters) but comes home and starts right back with the beer. Now its at the point that the hospital is through with draining him. ( cause of insurance reasons) They are going to give him pills to take. I like this neighbor, he is really a good person, and only 38 yrs old. You can't talk to him about this disease. If any Doctors are on board here, what do you think as far as time does he have him on his health? Positve answers only please. Thank You...

I've always had what you could call a "weak stomach." For many years, I'd get violently sick to my stomach if the weather "suddenly changed" (i.e., it was chilly outside/AC is on). This was hell during the wintertime as I'd have to urgently use the restroom during classes (if I held it in--breaking out in a cold sweat no less and hugging my arms--long enough, the pain would USUALLY subside after a while...).

Now, I get diarrhea at the drop of a hat, it seems. If I get anxious or excited, my stomach starts to act up sometimes. In the mornings... I ausually wake up hungry and sometimes I feel like I need to go diarrhea, even while hungry.

When I have an "attack" (usually the worst after having eaten food out with friends!), they come in waves. It'll lessen, get worse, lessen, get worse, lessen, then get to the point where I NEED TO GO HOME...

Never been constipated, but my stool's either diarrhea or "small." I usually go once or twice or... if I get sick, 3 times a day.
