Hi All

I am sorry for venting but I am scared and unable to concentrate on much. My symptoms are an uncomfortable ache low down in the abdomen when I seem to have wind and when I need to go for a b/m. I can also twinge when I am passing a bm and can feel tight around my abdomen low down. This is all new to me the last few weeks. 

I still go around 2 times a day have done since my c section and hysterectomy they are soft sometimes not as soft (brown to dark brown depending if there soft or not) but I put this down to diet. There doesnt seem to be any blood. 

My doctor took my bloods and everything has come back ok. What should I do next?? I am ok and then the ache uncomfortable twinge comes and my mind races away.

Thanks

    Hi

    How long ago did you have bloods taken?

    Like everyone on here we are not medically trained and the best advice I can give you this evening, being a bank holiday weekend is for you to phone NHS 111 and speak to an on call doctor for advice if only to give yourself some piece of mind.

    hi

    I had bloods taken last week all returned ok. I am just concerned that something isn't right 

  • Hi , sorry you are having this worry. I do not know enough about your past history to advise you. Are you a colon cancer patient, did you have a hysterectomy for cancer or something else? Whatever you have had previously I think you should get further advice with a view to more investigations. It could just be scar tissue from your hysterectomy. Good luck 

    Onwards and flatwards (don't do hills) and keep walking if you can!

    Hi

    I had a hysterectomy a year ago for adenomyosis  (womb problems but not cancer). I am worried as I am having wind and I have been aching on and off for several weeks now in my abdomen low down. I particulary ache /twinge before a bm and when gas is passing through. I was doubled up in pain a few weeks ago which went with pain killers. I don't usually ache before I need a bm or when wind is passing though. 

    I have been passing around 2 bm a day soft with no sign of blood. Doctors have taken a heap of blood this week which has come back fine but yet the ache pain /twinges are atill there. 

  • Thanks , it could indeed be scar tissue, but I still,think more investigation is needed. You need to,know what is causing it. Don't let anyone fob you off. Good luck.
