i have had a constant pain in my mid left abdomen since the beginning of December. Although the pain is constant; the frequency changes. i have had 3 ct scans, two colonoscopies, and even a laparoscopy for endometriosis- all coming back as normal. however one of the biggest symptoms that has always been there is constipation. even prior to this most recent attack i have always had digestion issues- as well as many other family members. i have been told it is ibs and tried both diet changes and supplements with no real relief. no matter how much fiber and water i take in, it is still constipating. once it does make it out, it is very soft. generally a small dose of laxatives gets things moving quite fast but to the other extreme of diarrhea. i have tried antispazmatics and muscle relaxers to no avail. could an issue in the small intestine be to blame?? i have been curious if it could be a kink? any other suggestions on what to try next?
