Hi everyone, I'm Kate. I've had stomach issues with pain and D for about 7 years. It really started after I had my gallbladder removed. I started to have urgent BM with D and at times my whole body can get hot and sweaty to the point I feel like passing out. Scares me every time!
I went to see a gastro specialist for this. He said he was due to having my gallbladder removed and I should take immodium for the D. Years went by snd this just became my normal...until I switched primary care doctor and they sent me to a different gastro specialist who has already done an endoscopy on me, which came back looking great. They did s CT scan which showed inflammation of large colon possibly colitis. I have a colinoscopy next week as they are looking for Crohn's also.
I'm so afraid of having either if these.
I'm here for support and to gather as much information as I can.
