Constantly gassy, stomach rumbles, vomit feeing, nausea

[Anxious247]

I’ve had these problems since I was 12 I am now 15. My mum has the exact same problems I(probably worse) but is a lot more comfortable with it than me. I cannot speak to her bout it because she just disregards it everytime. My family is riddled with disease. My dad, nan and grandad have Crohn’s disease my mum and my other grandad had stomach cancer. I’m starting school tomorrow and the nausea / vomit in my throat feeing happens in most of my lessons (PE and Biology especially) and I usually bunk of these. My GCSE’s are very soon and I want to get this problem sorted out before. Thanks to anyone who replies

I had those same symptoms, especially in college in the classes I had after eating lunch. It turned out to be due to anxiety which I didn't know I had at the time. I remember how embarrassing it was and how much I worried about it which seemed to make it worse. I really feel badly for you, particularly since you're not getting support at home. Have you told any of your close friends about it? Maybe you can joke about it with some friends at school and that would make you more comfortable about it. Maybe you can try to just accept it as I'm sure your fellow students aren't aware of it as much as you think.

Have you gone to you GP? You don’t need to let your parents know about this. Your GP doesn’t need your parents to consent either. I would suggest to have it check out. It might well be anxiety related, but even then it would be good to go.

How would I go about doing this? And hypothetically If there was something wrong, would I have to tell my parents?

Yea it’s the worst after lunch because your stomach feels like it’s doing front flips. Apparently when you are anxious your blood flow to your stomach is decreased which supposedly makes you feel worse. I have biology after lunch and I get queasy very easily. We had to watch an hour long autopsy (not optional) and I had to put my head on the table pretend to be writing notes to get through it

You would just to call your GP and make an appointment. Might take a little while until you get one though. You can tell your parents depending on what is actually wrong and how you feel about this. Should it be serious then I would suggest to have a joint GP appointment and the GP then explains what’s wrong and what can be done.

I know for a fact that when I get there I will feel absolutely fine and disregard it. Also, I feel like it would be very embarrassing if once i got there I had a panic attack or there was simply nothing wrong with me (even though I really feel like there is)

Can you talk to your dad about it? I don’t think anything is wrong but chron’s is an autoimmune disease and something worth checking out. It’s something you can definitely live with. I’m NOT saying you have this. It’s actually not common so dont panic. But a simple colonoscopy or blood test will give you answers. To me, it sounds like irritable bowel syndrome that I’m sure everyone of us on these boards have. When you get nervous your stomach starts to hurt and you can have instant diarrhea, cramping bloating nausea. All symptoms of anxiety. There is a strong link between mind and gut health. You can talk to your GP about probiotics too.

Don’t be embarrassed. Do you know how many doctors think I’m crazy from my panicking? I could care less. You just have to do what will make you feel better. They are used to seeing all sorts of patients, calm ones, nervous ones and the in between.

Thanks for replying. My stomach doesn’t hurt and I never get diarrhoea. I feel bloated, then the rumbling starts and and then I feel something come up from my stomach into the back of my throat which immediately makes me feel nauseous. My gps are not the best in my area if I’m being honest. They always prescribe pepto bismol for literally any problem you have lol. I’m not sure whether this is giving me anxiety or whether anxiety giving me this but either way I wouldn’t mind being diagnosed with crohns, it gives me an excuse not to do PE. For an anxious person and a hypochrondria I really don’t care if I have a disease it only makes my life more interesting

I understand the dr issues. They always throw medicine down to mask issues. My dr tried to throw acid reducers down my throat when I was having the same issues as you. I got the issues due to antibiotics I used months prior. It’s all a scam.
I don’t know your diet but I’m in the nutrition field and I know people can be sensitive to certain foods. I’d try cutting down on foods like raw vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and high fiber foods. Can also be lactose issue. Have you kept a diary? It all sounds to me like a food sensitivity or the actual anxiety itself causing the symptoms. It’s almost like a hamster wheel with anxiety.
