Hi all,
I am 53 and to start i have always been regular with bowel movements 2-3 times a day.
FYI ,I start using that new diet pill for two weeks before all this called Garcinia Cambogia Extract.
It started 10 days ago when I went to the gym and worked out for the first time in two weeks .
I came home and later that night I felt lower back pain, then a while later I had stomach upset and pain. since then some pain in mid back. 4 out of 10 pain.
After two days I went to the Chiro and tried electric stimulation and it did not change how I felt.
I self diagnosed my self with IBS, so I started taking Metamucil for a day and nothing changed.
I then went to my Gasto dr. and felt around and said I had Diverticulitis and gave me a blood test and CT scan with contrast and gave Me Cipro 500 mg per day and Metronidazole 500 mg both twice a day . I also was told liquid diet for two days, but I had not had that much to eat for 4 days before because i thought IBS!!! so stopped eating anything I thought would hurt that.
I took the Meds for two days then my toe started getting numb and I read the side effects and that was one of them. I stopped the meds and told the Dr.
Now still numb after 24 hours????
I had the follow up with the Doctor three days later and the test came back negative .
Blood was great and no Sid rate or no Diverticulitis.
He said maybe you just need some Murelax. ?????
So I ate chicken yesterday because I was so hungry. Lost 6 lbs in 7 days
I took Metamucil bececause I did not have Murelex in the house. I was able to go today but very little ,like water though .
I am going for a colonoscopy in 5 days.
I had two in the past 7 years already.
Polyps in the first one then none 5 years ago.
Can polyps do all this.
Help!!!
