stomach sore when stressing

[workin'mumof2]

i have a big prob, ever since i was going through exams at school i would stress so much that my stomach would get real sore. the only time i would not allow myself to do this was when i was pregnant. because i didnt want to harm them in any way. since the birth of my recent daughter our money is tight because we had to start fresh moving interstate and ive started stressing again. :(

can stressing make u loose ur breastmilk.
can it cause a stomach ulser

last time i went to the docs about this she dissmissed it and said :what on earth do u have to stress about":crying:

should i see a doc here. they might care more:(

I have had the exact same thing ever since i can remember, it got a lot worse when bub was born and we had huge money issues. Turns out i have Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and at times it has been extremely painful. I didn't get it at all while pg and bfing, it must have been becasue of all the good hormones floating through my body at the time. I find that anxiety brings mine on. I am now on antidepressant medication due to PND and severe anxiety and i haven't had IBS since i started the meds cause my anxiety is way better.

The things i have done to help my IBS are

Take IBS Support capsule each day (from CHemist or Health SHop)
When its really painful take a mouthful of ALoe Vera Juice (Health Food Shop)

I hope you find a way to ease your discomfort. Hope the money issues improve for us both too so that we can relax!
