Hello all, I would like to have some advice as searching over the net can make anyone really worried.I have been having pain that ranges from 2 to 8 at time in my lower left side of my stomach. My bowl movements are loose stools or diareha. I have not seen any blood or thin stools. I have had a few cases of pebbles and occasional constipation.My primary doctor belives its IBS and gave me some pain medicine. I had 2 things of blood work from this office , the first one I was a lil low on iron/ slightly anemiac, but the second one came back fine.For the past month and a half I have been very stressed form this and not eating due to nausea or lack of appetite. I have lost between 6-8 pounds in lil over a month. I have went to a gastro doctor and she felt around and says it's most likely IBS as she could not feel any thing to be concerned with my stomach and the blood tests.Well this tuesday I went to the ER for my nausea as I was really worried as was my girlfriend. They gave me additiona blood work/ urine test which all came back fine. The then gave me a cat scan which came back negative. They recomeneded getting a new gastrologist because she didnttell m e to get tests and only gave fiber supplements and allign. I have stopped taking the allign since it gave me constant gas.I see my new gastrologist on christmas eve. I felt fine Tuesday and wednesday and even had a better appetite but seems like I am getting the pain back/ nausea. Any suggestions?Should I be frank and ask for a colonoscopy?I am overweight and 26 and have had a very stressful three months with finding out my girlfriend is pregnant then the following week my father passed all of a sudden.My primary has given me something for anxiety last week and it has calmed me down alot but any advice will be greatly appreciated.Thank You
