Does anyone with IBS get a sharp pain in your belly button that stops you in your tracks? I have had this off and on for the past 15 years.

Pain in belly button
Is it the belly button itself or the underlying tissues? I had an ovarian cyst that caused referred pain to under my belly button. It was definitely cyclical and always happened right before my period.
Of course, it really got my mind moving with all sorts of catastrophic thoughts, but, as usual, turned out to be something non life threatening.
Just remember, your anxiety will tell you it is the worst possible thing and will continue to freak you out as long as you let it. I'm betting your are a-okay.
Hang in there! However, if it does perist, then go get it checked out.

hi hot rod i dont have pain in my belly button but often in my stomach like today maybe acid reflux but i feel real bloated like after you drink a soda to fast n you have to burp prob all strees rite/ feels the more i think about the worse it gets! im actually only on the self talk session so im trying to be positive!
Sorry to get all "questiony" on you but...
Does that full feeling occur out of the blue or after you eat? And, do you notice certain foods make it worse? Also, any pain up under your right rib?
Just thinking about gallbladder stuff. I had some issues with that last year and diet changes and antacids really helped the symptoms.
And, huge first step... you said you noticed when you focused on the problem it became worse. Ya think?? lol Seriously, catching our disorder "red handed" is a big first step. The more you focus the worse it gets, so see that for what it is, and realize that it truly is "Thoughts, only thoughts"
Congrats on doing the program! It saved my life... literally.
