hello, I have had horrible severe pain in my lowwer abdomen for about 3 1/2 years now. I ve had a laproscopy to check for endometriosis and my appendix was also taken out. They thought it was diverticulitis but after a colonoscopy they said my intestines were fine. I ve had Ct scans, ultrasounds, and they checked my bladder. They still can t figure out what my pain is coming from. It usually comes at night and off and on. I could go a month without it and then it re appears. Lately for the past 2 weeks it has been non-stop excrutiating pain which has never happened. I take Ibprhopen and it helps relieve it a little. I also have red streaks on my stool which the doctors tell me it s just from internal hemmrhoids. I m starting to wonder if it could be intestinal tuberculosis? I have had spots on my lungs during cat scans and my symptoms seem to match. I also am exposed to TB on a daily basis by working with inmates. Any information would be greatly appreciated!
