Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Does anybody else suffer from this? I've had this for years now and it's not good! 

 

I've tried keeping a mental note of certain foods and alcoholic drinks that can trigger my ibs, but that doesn't always work. My ibs is stress related, so I am pretty much screwed, as my job is stressful, so I just need to keep my symptoms under control. I've been taking Buscopan for a while now, which is pretty good.

 

IBS help!  :doctor:

I've always thought this, and you're a medical worker so it must be true

Now that is scientific fact. There's no real evidence for it, but it is - scientific fact.

'I work well as an individual as well as part of a team' :-)

Was diagnosed with IBS a few years ago, I've given up trying to works out 'triggers'. What I think has set my arse off won't make any difference a week later.

 

Not sure how a colonic would help, I can categorically state there's fuck all left up there once it all kicks off.

Was tested for all sorts in 2005 as my guts were fucked.

 

Worst thing was the prostate massage.

 

The cunt who did it said " it's not unusual to get an erection during this procedure"

 

I said " don't worry tiger, I ain't fucking got one"

 

 

 

 

The twat said "I have though"

Properly diagnosed IBS is life-limiting

 

Eldest daughter has it. Shitting blood occasionally isn't funny

 

Biggest problem is mis-diagnosis and the wrong treatment

I had an endoscopy and a colonoscopy a few years back (that was an experience) and I got the all clear. Pretty sure I have already been tested for Celiac disease and I was clear.

 

I know when I am stressed, which is a lot, my guts play up, especially after eating.

 

Maybe I need counselling to chill me out more? Anxiety and being neurotic runs in my family.

I get it when I'm stressed. Tried looking for food triggers, had shit loads of tests. Went through the whole, well at your age it could be to do with women's trouble etc. Anyway, there's fuck all wrong apart from a dodgy womb so the key now is trying to avoid stress as I don't want to have my womb ripped out, unused or not.

What actually is it??

 

Loads of runny shits unannounced??

Varies. Can be stomach cramps and bloatedness and even bunged up rather than the squits.

runny shits unannounced

Thats a cracking film is that

Likewise blondi had all the tests. had hypnotherapy. Really is life limiting. Make a lot of life decisions based on it. Couldn't drive on a motorway to work for example in a morning for fear of being caught short. If the train loo is bust I have to get on it. Try to avoid silly am flights (alot worse in a morning). Will take loperamide bung myself up if got an am flight but it's not a regular daily solution. Literally can go from not needing go at 7.45 in the house to desperate at 8.05

My boss has crohns. Now that is shit, literally.

My mum had it for over 30 years. She had countless operations cutting more and more of her intestine out. Grim.
