Painful Abdominal Bloating

[TCoys28]

I have painful abdominal bloating, which I've had for about a week now.
It hasn't affected my bowel movements.
I'm getting a bit of lower back pain too.

I haven't gone to the GP yet, as I'm hoping it would go away.

Does anyone know what it could be?

Stupid question pixie, but how do I know?
It's kind if like my lower stomach, if that makes sense?

pixie, how could she feel her uterus as opposed to her stomach ?

I don't know anything about ovulation but I always got digestive symptoms with my period.

Your bowels and waterworks are normal, you have had fertility problems and last year about the same time, you had similar symptoms.

This may be of Gynaecological origin and as temporary measure I would agree with woofgang and would take Buscopan which you can get from the chemist and make an appt to see your GP next week.

Because they're in different places. You know where you'd get period pains and you know where you'd get stomach ache.

Sounds similar to mine.. apart from I dont get the bloating, but I do get the loose stool.

Ive been told IBS affects people in different ways.
Im going for blood tests, as ive not been diagnosed as of yet.
But according to what my doctor has mentioned, it sounds likes ibs to me.
