Suggest Remedy For Dull Ache On My Waistline
I have a dull ache on my waistline on the rt. side about 7 ins. rt. of my navel. I have had irritable bowel for 5 years with sev. yrs. of burping and gas and lose bowel from 4 movements a day to diahrrea On occasion I would have this ache also. I had all the testing down to CAT and the Gastro doc said it is very common not to be able to find the cause and has had me on Immodium all this time and it is the only thing to hold back the many movements. Not that i like that but he said he has had people on it for years and it will not harm me. I tweaked it to 2 times a day because AM was not enough. I did find that Red wine in the evening can cause this dull ache but even without the wine I have the ache. We have had a great stressor hit our family which has me so beside myself and I can only be thankful for our health because the stressor is a huge 2nd. The stressor has no way out other at this time. Our family consists of daughter and myself. I am worried about it being something physically serious. What might I check out with my doctor or what is in that area? Can stress cause all of this? Sincerely, Karen

Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, your doctor is true in saying that no tests can be found to be abnormal with irritable bowel, still i would recommend you stay more calm and relax,as stress is a major reason for exaggeration of symptoms, regular meditation will surely help you also you can take help of any yoga teacher in your locality, as many yogic exercises have good effect of this condition and thus can reduce the need for drugs to manage your symptoms, i would advice you to be mentally strong and live life fully
I hope that answers your query. If your want any more clarification, contact me back.
