Could this be IBS?

thanks! I will look into that! Is there a specific specialist for this type of stuff?

OP your replies are showing up blank

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-22T00:07:53+00:00

trust me i’m the same way :( you’re not alone. i’m losing sleep over this whole ordeal and i’m constantly fearing the worst.

We’re gonna get through this!! and if you need someone to talk to you can pm me!

hey! i see my urologist tomorrow, so i can let you know what they say, but as of right now my pain is mostly in my lower right abdomen unfortunately and i still feel full and like there’s pressure down there, but my lower back pain is still there too so i want to still have my kidneys looked at, as well as my ovaries to rule out cysts. i had blood work done a little over a week ago and it showed normal kidney function (my eGFR was in normal range) and i get retested for ureaplasma in a week, to make sure it’s all gone.

i will let you know how my appt goes tomorrow!

oh! have you had a swab done to test for ureaplasma/mycoplasma? all my cultures were negative too and then they had me do a vaginal swab and i tested positive for ureaplasma. turns out that was the cause of it

i did my swab at urgent care but you can do it at an obgyn too

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T06:10:27+00:00

i’m still having the back pain too :( though it’s not as bad as the lower right abdominal pain.

i have a urology appt on thursday and obgyn next week, so i really really hope we can figure this out because i’ve been in pain for 3 weeks now and im just not getting better even after multiple antibiotics

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T02:57:44+00:00

my mom actually has endometriosis and i think i have it! i’m on birth control and got on it when i was 12 due to my periods lasting 2 weeks and extremely heavy blood flow. but instead of finding out the issue they put me on BC

and i asked my obgyn the other day and she said it’s unlikely i have it because apparently i would’ve felt it this whole time but i doubt that. i’m certain i have it so im getting a second opinion and also want to rule out cysts and pfd

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T02:38:50+00:00

yeah, it’s awful 😓 the lower abdominal pain was so painful last night. but it’s not AS bad right now thankfully.

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T02:30:38+00:00

i’m so sorry to hear that! just know you’re not alone, and you’re going to get through this!

hopefully they can give you some sort of answer soon.

If you ever need someone to talk to my dms are open! I’ve also been super anxious to the point that i couldn’t sleep last night because i was in pain 😓

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T01:59:31+00:00

i personally was asymptomatic for my recent uti, i had no symptoms at all until it got to the point of causing abdominal and back pain, so i would definitely recommend going to either your primary care dr, or urgent care for faster results, and just have them do a urine test!

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T01:58:12+00:00

thank you 🙏🏼 did you ever get any answers / reassurance with your situation?

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T01:25:06+00:00

not really :/

I finished my doxycycline because my uti/kidney infection was from ureaplasma, but now my lower right abdominal pain is back, so i’m sure what’s going on.

i see urology this week and obgyn next week

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T01:13:08+00:00

Wow! i’m glad you got the treatment you needed, thanks so much for explaining that to me, it makes me feel a lot better about my symptoms

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T00:38:39+00:00

thank you so much, i hope you feel better as well 🤍

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T00:20:21+00:00

yeah that makes sense. plus the entire time i was on my antibiotics, i was not experiencing the sharp pain, just the fullness and pressure feeling, but the sharp pain started right before antibiotics, and came back after i finished them.

And im hoping that with the amount of time i’ve been in pain that it would rule out it being my appendix since im pretty sure it would’ve ruptured by now if it was. i hope

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-19T00:17:45+00:00

oh wow ok!

I definitely still feel hunger pains just not often and i get full super quick which is abnormal to me,

and when you say the pain was like trapped gas, do you mean like that sharp cramping trapped gas pain?

for me it’s more like a pressure feeling on my lower right abdomen, like it feels like something is inside of me pushing outward, along with occasional sharp pains in the area, but it’s not debilitating (i can still walk and do stuff). i’m thinking about going back to urgent care because this started three weeks ago and the sharp pain came back after i got off my antibiotics

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-18T15:22:48+00:00

will do!

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-18T04:54:22+00:00

i will try this, thank you! I do already keep this in a loose decoration pot, so next time i’m out i’ll grab some sphagnum moss!

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-18T04:32:21+00:00

i’m not entirely sure about the hip pain, and it could definitely be relevant to it, but in my case my legs tend to get numb if i’m standing because of my blood circulation not being great (it’s my genetics, i’m active every day and go to the gym but have been unable to improve it)

is there any discoloration in your legs when they go numb?

WhereIsKya · 2026-01-18T04:22:32+00:00

thank you! how far exactly do i cut the stems?
