Reply to "Intense gas pain. Help!"

@SteveG @Kushami @Li__ thank you so much for the feedback and advice.  I really need to get a floor pelvic therapist. Can my Dr send a referral or is this something I find outside of the hospital?

To your questions about my diet.  When I first had my surgery back in May, I was on a low fiber diet. I still had the same symptoms as I do now.  I slowly started adding more fiber to get more nutrients, energy and to change my watery stool to a more thicker consistency. I've tried a bunch of different diets but the whole wheat one suits me better.

I had a talk with my nurse practitioner today because my Dr was unavailable.  She went over some of my results and they are going to prescribe me a steroid to help with my inflammation and that should also help with my painful gas. They,  unfortunately have not figured out my weird situation of only being able to have a bm when I lay down.  She's nor the Dr have ever heard of this.

So I'm back to being disappointed and depressed. They didn't even try to see if they could figure it out or reach out to other Drs. I mean they could at least reach out to a specialist in a bigger city who may have more experience, like the Mayo clinic?

What do you guys think I should do next?
