You are wondering if your symptoms are caused by nervousness, and it would help to hear what kind of stress and nervousness you are experiencing. Do you feel your anxiety, stress and/or nerves are more than you are able to handle right now? If so, how long has this been occurring, and how long have your other symptoms been occurring?

Hi Anonymous-

Nerves and anxiety can definitely cause gastrointestinal issues. This link is strong in irritable bowel syndrome, for instance. We have a lot of information on this topic and even if it is not your official diagnosis, it may help you: https://www.empowher.com/condition/irritable-bowel-syndrome

There are over the counter medications like Gas-Ex to help with this sort of thing, but it is not universally accepted that it really helps. You can get up and go for a walk outside or something and that may help, avoid carbonation or if you have lactose intolerance avoid dairy, but sometimes there is not a lot you can do without seeing a health care provider to diagnose just what is going on.

This is an issue for many people, so at least you know you are not alone. A consistent high fiber diet and plenty of exercise will help keep your gut moving steadily along and may help prevent some of these episodes as well.

Good luck to you.
