I Have Been Having Stomach Problems For The Last Several
Question: I have been having stomach problems for the last several months. I either have diarrhea or
I don’t go at all. I have extreme bloat and gas with nausea at times. When this flares up I pass mucous or blood with or without bowel movements. Even if I have a bowel movement I still feel pressure like I need to go again. I had a colonoscopy about eight months ago. The only abnormality was a benign polyp. I haven’t seen the doctor yet for my current problem. I have Sjögren syndrome, fibromyalgia, and small fiber neuropathy. I have wondered if this is a symptom of one of those conditions. Thanks for any information you can give me.
