Hi Jeepers
Midday in Australia but at the moment I feeling okay, but my rib usually gets worse as the day goes on. I examine my poo very single day and worry. I eat 30-35g of fibre a day. I have been living with piles for 11 years now and it seems to be harder to get rid off each year. I had them since mid September, bleed for a total of a month so far, and just can't seem to get rid of them. I've had colonoscopy x2, plus seen specialist. So always on the hi fibre diet, looking at my poo every morning, I worry about colour and shape, if I'm bleeding or not. What a life I lead, and who would thought that one person can be so oppressed with one's own poo
And I also been losing weight since September about 4kg now, I'm down to 59kg, the same size as I was before kids. My doctor has been informed and she not concerned at the moment because I'm having less carbs plus I have cut out a lot of sugar. I went to Melbourne to see my April for a week, I ate cake, carbs and fried food and only managed to put on 0.8kg. I was hoping for more, but at least it went up. I'm concerned as I'm always eating.
There's always seem to be a concern, and after months of having a problem and I work it out or it just goes, some think else takes it's place. I would love to feel normal for one day and no pain, it's been over a year now. If someone could tell me it was menopause related, I would just put up with it and not worry as much. With my rheumatologist I had 2 x-rays and MRI, she tells me I should have back pains occasionally but not everyday. But I do, when I ask can it be menopausal related? She can't tell me. So when I have pain around my ribs front and back, I worry they gotten this all wrong, and it's not back pain with my ribs trying to overcompensate, so exercise more, but something a lot worse.
I hope it's premenopausal related and one day I will feel better.
Sorry for going on a bit Jeepers.
I hope you had a great night sleep and feeling hungry, your poos are normal and in no pain today.
Sending love and positive thoughts Lyn
