Sallyhart 16 Posted July 11, 2019 Hello I am here today as I don't know what is happening to me. The other day I had a bad tummy and really painful cramps. It eventually went off after a couple of days with visits to the toilet. I am still not right! I am now left with what seems to be an overwhelming sense of fear. I am having a nervous belly all day everyday, wake up with it feels like when you are going to an interview or a docs appointment and you get scared. It is like butterflies all day long and I am worried so much that this is a stomach disease or something or is this anxiety? Please help me if you can.

Iugrad91 501 Posted July 11, 2019 A connection between brain and gut has been scientifically proven. Anxiety/worry can certainly affect your gut. Check out the 100 symptoms of anxiety and many are digestive system related. I personally have experienced gas, bloating, loose stools, constipation, reflux, nervous stomach, nausea, and more from anxiety. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im not much help but Im going thru that exact same thing only adding that i also get lightheaded and a weird chest feeling. Ive thought about it being ibs, heart problem and even parasites Xp but anxiety is also a possibility. I hope you start feeling better and at least know you are not alone.

Sallyhart 16 Posted July 11, 2019 Thank you for your replies, no no chest sensations just feel a little crampy like I need to go and that nervous feeling. It is horrible when you don't know where it came from. Just out of the blue really. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
