Interesting. I'm currently on waiting list for colonoscopy due to pain in abdomen right side in line with belly button with bad bloating. CT scan normal, ultra sound normal. I think some of my symptoms line up with the symptoms you are all describing. I always thought it was not a bowel thing. It comes and goes and is not excruciating. Been going in for past few months. Is it something that starts off not severe and progressively gets worse? I have recently begin to have pain inside during intercourse, near ovaries. Again only a couple sharp shooting sort of pains. My lower back is constantly aching and come to think of it all these things started happening when I went off the pill last October. My periods seem to be much shorter too only 2-3 days. We want to try for s third baby ASAP too , I wonder if I should ask GP about this.
