TUMMYACHE

Scared woman

I get the tummy ache every day, and sometimes its so painful I can't do anything except lie down. I cant always go to the toilet either, even though I want to. The doctor who diagnosed me said a lot of Asperger Syndrome people get tummyache.

Has anyone got any ideas what I can do about it, as I am fed up of it. My GP said to drink more but I already do drink a lot of water.

I get very hungry as well, so its not affecting my appetite.

  • Hi - the points made by the other 2 posters are right.  If you aren't getting nauseous then it's probably not stomach acid.  If it's constipation then as your Dr said you must drink enough liquid.  Have you tried fruit juices and do you eat enough roughage such as vegetables, fruit with the skins on, things like that.  If you gut isn't relaxed because you're anxious I think there's something you can take which is supposed to help that.  Whether you need to go back to ask your Dr, or have a chat with the pharmacist instead?
