jr2 was talking to me in the intro forums. In a nut shell I have a ton of questions and I do not completely trust my doc due to the fact he told me he has never suffered from these.
I started with 1 AF and I knew the second it happened, I could feel it. It seemed heal in a couple weeks after my GP prescribed a cream for me. Well being a bit on the OCD side I was checking constantly every day sometimes 20+ times. Low and behold 2 days after I started checking progress a lot I had two more, which my doc told me I gave to my self pulling and stretching the area so much. Can checking to much pulling stretching, etc cause me to give myself more of these infernal things?
Now I am just worried sick all the time. The pain is intolerable and I have to constantly switch positions to find comfort which means it is ALWAYS on my mind. The last 3-4 days the area below my belly button aka the intestines if I am recalling right has been a nervous wreck. It feels rather like always having butterflies in my stomach so to speak. My BM's have been way off diareha etc.
I am wondering is this all due to nerves and stressing over this? I tend to worry about my health a lot more since turning 40 and I feel like these things are wrecking my life.
I would love some advice here.
