Okay, here goes...
Well I've put up a few other posts about some of my conditions, mostlly to no avail, but there is one persistent problem I've noticed. Sometimes I'll have really painful gas. Now it's not like a cramp, it's more like a pain that I can feel on either or both sides about four inches diagonally from my belly button. (like right above where my thighs meet my pelvis I guess) I also have swollen inguinal lymph nodes (recently diagnosed with mono) and these areas I speak of are extremely bloated/bulging. Doc's have said "not a hernia" three times already, and I'm having a lymph node taken out in two weeks since they've been swollen for about two, three months now.
Can anyone help? I'm not even sure if it's a bowel, problem or other? I also have a lot of trouble bearing down to pass... Like sometimes I gotta kinda sit a different way to make it happen, but not all the time.
I was on Hyoscyamine for about a week, that didn't seem to do too much. I took Cipro for two weeks after a diagnoisis of acute prostatitis (22, yay that's fun...) and I most recently took cefzil for a few weeks for the swollen lymph nodes. However, I didn't have swollen lymph nodes until after the Cipro, and had all of these problems before the anti-biotics.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to take up so much space and people's time, but if ANYBODY has something even remotely close to what I'm talking about, please let me know. I know there's a lot to sort through, but I would appreciate it.

P.S. I also quit smoking marijuana, because it made the area around my gut/pelvis feel really weird. Like I couldn't stop moving my legs, and pelvic area was really tense...
