Question: I have cramping in my abdomen, for the past 24-48 hrs. It is mostly in the left lower abdomen. I feel like I always have to have a BM. Sometimes I can and it helps the cramping but only a little. Sometimes I can't go at all. My BM's are soft but formed, an orangey color, and has white almost kernel like things in various sizes. For longer then that I have had back pain on the left side along the spine in the thoracic region and a popping feeling in one of my ribs. The back pain has worsened as the cramps have worsened. I also have achiness throughout my whole body. Especially in my arms and hands which also causes weakness. Like instant arthritis.

Thank you doctor. My current temp is 99 which is very very unusual for me as my body temperature is normally btw 96.8 and 97.2. So for me 99 is on the high side. I am also experiences chills and sweats intermittency even though my activity level, room temperature, and clothing have not changed. Furthermore the pain in my abdomen seems to have spread out and is now radiating from just below and to the left of my belly button. I am also gassy. And my back pain is quite unbearable and seems to encompass my whole ribs.

Yesterday when I passed a bowel movement it looked to have blood in it. Maroon to bright red. It turned the toilet water pinkish red. I cannot be 100% sure that it was blood, as I did have beets in my salad the previous day. But the red stool and stomach pain did go hand in hand. My stool is no longer bright red but is a light brownish orange with white chunks in it, almost like white corn kernels. But they are not uniformed in size, and I have eaten no corn.

I also noticed my urine is cloudy but I have no burning when I pee.

Is this something I should try to see a doctor about today?

Thank you for the information. However as mentioned in my intake form, I am already on a probiotic, and cannot eat yogurt because I have a dairy allergy.
