Since my IBS symptoms have gotten so much worse in the last year or so, I notice a couple of weird symptoms. Often when I'm sitting or lying down, I will suddenly start having this feeling that my stomach is kind of jumping. It actually feels kind of like a heartbeat, but it's definitely not my heart that's doing it. It happens above the belly button area rather than in the intestinal area. I figure it's some kind of spasm, but it is so strong. Really unnerving.
Secondly, I recently have noticed that whether I'm D or C or somewhere in between, I feel like I've been punched in the gut or like I have exercised too much. Sort of like I did way too many sit-ups--but I didn't! Just feel bruised. Is this related to intestinal spasms? Am I actually getting sore muscles?
I'm really curious if anyone else has these symptoms. I never had them until this year.
