I am a 15 year old female. I take Vyvanse/Adderall occasionally due to my ADHD, occasionally because though my parents get my prescription/medication/and the such, they do not let me take it very often because they believe I am "cheating" the system.
sucks to be me, but whatever.
For the past month and a half, I have been having strange stomach problems. At first, it was just occasional pain/discomfort.
In the second week, I had a severe bout of pain, and I couldn't even walk. It was a sharp, pulsating pain in my lower left quadrant, and less but still pulsating pain throughout my lower quadrants.
In the third week, it levelled out. I had vague pain/discomfort daily in my lower quadrants, but I chalked it up to bloating or gas. I had normal BMs every day.
In the fourth week, it started to get worse. My lower quadrants began to hurt like a slow burn, and my BMs started to increase, to at least 5 a day. I was having mostly solid BMs, and a couple bouts of minor diarrhea. I did notice that my solid BMs were slightly skinnier in width than normal.
In the 5th and 6th week, it began to get chaotic. My entire stomach started hurting a lot more than it did earlier, and a sharp pain that began in my lower quadrants shifted near my diaphragm area. My lower quadrants remained in pain. My BM count went up to 10 times a day. I had diarrhea, skinnier stools, constipation, and translucent, white-ish clumps that kind of looked like if you scaled up a macrophage. (I assumed that was mucus.) I was very nauseous, and woke up in the middle of the night to throw up. I started getting fevers of 99-100F at night.
Separately, I've started gaining small sores on my arms and legs. At first they start as bumps, but then they open and drip a clear liquid. I only have about 6, but they've started since the 5th/6th week, and they are itchy and won't heal. Was wondering if these were related?
It is now the 7th week. I currently taking Pepto-Bismol, Probiotics, Peptids, Tums, and Vitamin D. However, I still have a sort of burning discomfort in my entire stomach, and my BMs are down to maybe 3-4 a day. However, my stools are a little skinnier than usual, or diarrhea, or darker than before this whole pain occurred. Additionally, I get hit by the occasional wave of nausea.
I would've ignored it, but there is a history of GI-related cancer in my family, and idk how cancer manifests so yea.
Any ideas/suggestions to remedy this?
