Suggest Treatment For Constipation And Indigestion
I have been experiencing constipation and indigestion lately. I get the gurgles in my stomach that are really loud and embarrassing. Ive been getting nauseous but no vomiting as well. I also have a low fever or 99. I have anxiety and very frequent panic attacks, and it s hard for me to sleep at times so I thought that that was the problem. But I ve been feeling like this for about a week 1/2 and it s not going away. I ve been eating less because I ve lost a lot of my appetite, and if I eat it makes me feel worse. My symptoms get worse at night, and cause me to not sleep. I feel like I can t swallow anything, or like I have a lump stuck in my throat. I don t known if I should go to the doctor for this or not? I keep being told it s just my nerves but I actually don t feel good. Could this be a virus or is it just my anxiety making me ill?
Your symptoms seem to be related to constipation. There are several causes related to constipation and anxiety can be one of the causes. I recommend taking over the counter laxative such as Miralax. I also recommend to take daily probiotics and eat a rich fiber diet.
