Alice L,
I couldn't find the picture. Did it load?
Alice, I really think that whatever is wrong with me on the bottom is wrong with you too.
My pain on my left side seems to be related to bowel movements, and sometimes, I too have diarrhea. Sometimes after a bowel movement, I feel like I have a toothache in my bottom. It hurts all day. Sometimes I come home from work I tell my Mother (I live with Mom), "My bottom hurts." I will go and get in the shower, because the warm water seems to relieve the pain somewhat. The spastic bladder also seems to be related to bowel movement. After a bowel movement, the bladder goes nuts and I have a morning like this morning, every 15 minutes to the toilet, no matter what I eat or drink.
Right now, I am fine, and am going to take a nap. But, my bottom hurts.
How do you explain this to a doctor so that he understands?
This is so good to have someone to talk to about this. Sometimes the doctors, as good as they are, look at me like I'm whining. Does this mean that everybody's bottom hurts and I'm just suppose to live with it and stop complaining?
Take care my new friend,
Rosemary
