Hi I been dealing with gas pains for over a year they come and go throughout the week. When I don’t eat I’m fine but once I eat breakfast I have a lot of gas pains lower pressure and need to put a heating pad. I have been diagnosed with diverticulosis in 2022 and had a colonoscopy 2024 and just found internal hemorrhoids. I been dealing with this and i don’t know if it’s IBS because I don’t know anyone who has that so I can’t ask if the symptoms are familiar. I’m also very stressed overwhelmed mom of three and I’m always burnt out. Have no village and I have health anxiety. 😞 anyone deal with this? I feel so alone

I have celiac disease, diagnosed at 19 in a colonoscopy. I know that's not exactly the same but I can relate. If you want to talk message me. I can definitely offer support.

There I'll probably say foods you can find. I know there are blogs and Reddit threads and things about those illnesses and people have found safe foods. It's important that you eat with three kids to look after. Not to mention, and just as importantly, yourself.

My partner for years was diagnosed with IBS and 3 years ago had further tests and was diagnosed with IBD. I suggest booking a GP appointment to get the ball rolling with some testing, explain the pain and discomfort is affecting your parenting and making you feel I adequate, although it may not be true sometimes these phrases gets things done a little faster.
