What Causes Bloating And Diarrhea Post Kidney Stone And Pyelonephritis Surgeries?

Hi... I ve been having stomach pain, bloating, diarrhea, gas, etc. I get a weird burning sensation on my skin, and movement on my upper right side of stomach, just under rib cage. I m often nauseated and tired. I also have numb arms and legs, almost constantly. I also sometimes feel a cold sensation on my brain, if that makes any sense. Other times it feels more like a cold ice picking sensation. I also sometimes feel a sharp pang surge through my body. I am a 36 year old female ( 5 3 100 lbs ) who has always been more like ten years younger. I have had two children by natural water birth, the youngest is 3 1/2. I had surgeries for kidney stones and pyelonephritis on my left side in June 2015. Any idea what s wrong with me ? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I think, you may have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The kind of symptoms you have, are more towards IBS and it could be increased by stress or underline psychological disorder.

In that case, diagnosis in your case, could be psychosomatic disorder. That means, psychological disorder is aggravating physical disorder.

In your case, you can either try some antidepressant like tricyclic antidepressant or relaxation exercise after psychiatrist consultation. That would help you to control symptoms.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Iven Romic Rommstein
