Is there a link between anxiety and bowel movements?

Asked by tan235 (877points) September 3rd, 2010

I suffer really badly from anxiety and have noticed lately that my bowel movements have been all over the place.

I’ve moved cities and have been ridiculously ridden with anxiety.
My stools are thin, watery and when I do have a BM i still feel like I need to go – but nothing comes out.
My stomach also feels funny and I have way more gas.

I’m worried now that it’s bowel cancer.

Anyone with anxiety have the same trouble?

Thanks
