Welcome to our community forum! As I read your message, I'm wondering a bit more about your pelvic pain. Do you have any other gastrointestinal symptoms besides pain? How long do you have to wait to see the gastroenterologist? In my younger years, my ulcerative colitis began as pain, but then it progressed to continual diarrhea, blood in the stool, an urgency to get to the bathroom, and the need to stay curled up like a ball. Please feel free to share more. That's what we're here for--to support one another as we navigate IBD. I'm glad you reached out. Hope you're having a pain-free day! Hugs!--Traci, UC-IBD Team Member
