Gut Pain/Back Pain

This is a little embarrassing but here goes....I have been doing two protein shakes a day for the past two weeks. I put one scoop of Unjury unflavored protein powder, 8 oz. Hood Calorie Countdown Fat Free Milk Beverage, and 1 scoop No Sugar Added Nesquick Powder....what a mouthful. For the past three days I have had very loose stools, which has been okay because from the moment I became overweight I have had a problem with constipation. But, Last night I started having the most incredible gut pain....When I would go to the restroom, it would hurt just to sit down, almost like in the pelvic bones. Today I have had incredible back pain. I dont know if its because of the protein shake I have added or something else.

I remember a couple of years ago, having to go to the ER for similar pain, and had a cat scan of my abdomen and it was decided I had a lot of stool to get rid of. Also, I had a colonoscopy a couple of years ago and it didnt show anything. Could it be a gut problem, a gas problem, the shakes, or something more serious.

The pain seems to be radiating from my pelvic bone all the way to my side and back.

Anyone else had a similar problem?

Hey White06 how are you doing? Did you find out about the pain. Gallbladder pain comes and goes depending on the fatty or gassy foods I would eat. I had mine taken out several years go.

Funny you should ask, I am feeling a little better but I still have frequent attacks. I am going to the doctor today to see whats going on.

I went to the doctor and he thinks Im just constipated. He just didnt get excited at all. If I have a fecal impaction, how do I fix it? After reading the research it sounds like I am a total text book case.

Let me know what you think??????????
