Ahhh, fibroids, just when you don't feel old enough already! During my last pelvic ultrasound they found a 5cm fibroid. That was in December, who knows how big it is now. I also questioned my doctors about whether this could be causing by IBS-C/pain/bloating. All of them told me that a fibroid would have to be really huge to put enough pressure on the colon to cause C. In spite of their assessment, I am still skeptical. One thought though, the knot you feel near your navel could actually be your colon spasming. I have experienced this and it feels like a hard painful lump. If you are really thin, it is easy to actually feel your colon. Good luck with all your doctors, it can be frustrating. artist
