I have pain in my stomach that goes clear through into my back. My bowels keeps shutting down and I have to take double laxative every few days to get relief. Everything I eat hurts. My stomach doctor says it is related to MS spasms. Patients with MS have difficulty with motility, including movement of food from the stomach through the intestines and colon.
Many patients suffer from constipation.
Others report easy bloating and fullness after eating small amounts of food. Your gastroenterologist can work with you to improve the rapidity of movement of food through your digestive system.
