Evening all,
I'd like to ask for your help on my symptoms which my dr suspects are IBS. Started off as lightheadedness and feeling faint as well as pains in my abdomen with either diahorea or constipation. This has been going on and off for a year, although mainly on, symptoms have hardly subsided.
I can understand the urgent need to go to the loo (really urgent at times) and the pains and diahorea but it's the constant lightheadedness that worries me as not bejng a symptom. Sometimes when I am having a "good" digestive day I'm still lightheaded. To be fair my good digestive day is probably not ideal still.
Please tell me someone else experiences this lightheaded faint feeling all the time?
Thanks
LS

I don't get dizzy with my IBS, but it is a symptom albeit a less common one.

hi there,
i have exactly the same symptoms except for light headedness and feeling faint. my ibs is always triggered by anxiety and claustrophobia and i start sweating excessively even if its snow falling. for me its excessive sweat and palpitation ,didn't experience light headed faint feeling.

This is exactly like me. I have upper abdomen pains. Lightheaded and weakness as well have a anxiety feeling. Docs say it's a functional digestive problem and not serious. Well for me it is serious as it affects my ability to do my job and function normally. Do you also feel hungry all the time?

Hi there, even though the symptoms came on one day with a bout of lightheadedness and have progressed into other odd things? My new nurse seems to thjnk anxiety may not be the cause and that this is something physical. Maybe she is wrong but I've never known anxiety to bring on all this strange stuff
