[19F] Experiencing back pain, abdominal pain, headaches, vision changes, and urinary discomfort

What might be happening

Based on the information you've provided, possible explanations for your symptoms include:

• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): You've mentioned that you have a history of IBS-C (constipation predominant). The abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits you're experiencing could be related to this condition. IBS can also cause a feeling of incomplete evacuation and bloating.

  • Treatment for IBS often involves dietary modifications, stress management, and sometimes medications to manage symptoms.

• Side effects of medications: Both Adderall and Accutane can cause various side effects. Adderall can cause headaches, fatigue, and changes in vision. Accutane can cause back pain, changes in vision, and fatigue. The Nexplanon implant can cause changes in menstrual cycle, which might contribute to abdominal pain.

  • If you suspect your symptoms are due to side effects of your medications, it's important to discuss this with your doctor. Do not stop taking your medications without consulting your doctor first.

• Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): Even though your recent tests were negative, UTIs can cause lower abdominal pain and changes in urination. They can also cause fatigue.

  • UTIs are typically treated with antibiotics.

• Migraines: You've mentioned that you have a history of migraines. Migraines can cause severe headaches, changes in vision (like blurriness), and can be triggered by certain smells. They can also cause nausea and light sensitivity.

  • Migraines are typically treated with a combination of lifestyle changes and medications.

What you can do

1. Consult your doctor: Given the variety and severity of your symptoms, it's important to consult your doctor for a proper evaluation. They may want to adjust your medications or perform additional tests.

2. Monitor your symptoms: Keep track of when your symptoms occur, their severity, and any potential triggers. This can help your doctor in diagnosing and treating your condition.

3. Stay hydrated and maintain a balanced diet: This can help with managing IBS and preventing UTIs.

What you should look out for

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience:

• Severe abdominal pain
• Blood in your stool or urine
• Sudden, severe headache
• Sudden worsening of your vision
• Signs of a severe allergic reaction, like difficulty breathing or swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat
