Thanks George H.,

i'm not certain that it's lymphedema, i haven't known anyone with the condition.
But i'm sure about the swelling.. and the only two things i have found in my search are oedema and lymphedema.

i get a very visible swelling in effected areas, and i can feel that the areas are swollen to the touch.
I'm not sure what exactly is going on i guess.. but i'm pretty sure it's not psychosomatic or IBS due to it not being confined to my abdomen.

I really wish i knew what it is.
