Anyone else have IBS symptoms that..
I have a very normal BM almost every morning like clockwork.
Then as the day goes on, I get super gassy and bloated. I usually have a couple more BMs during the day which are small and hard.
My time of the month I go more and it’s closer to IBS-D, which I know can be normal.
I eat well, exercise daily and avoid mytrigger foods that I know. The gassy everyday thing is super annoying though.

Mandy,
I think that doctors are taking IBS much more seriously then they were even a couple of years ago - probably this is being driven by the pharmaceutical industry with new prescription drugs for IBS treatment. My GI's never even spoke to me about IBS until very recently - it turns out that I probably have both inflammatory bowel disease (UC) AND IBS. IBS causes the pain - ulcerative colitis doesn't cause pain according to my GI doc! My GI doc told me to use this special super-dooper probiotic (and it's expensive) called VSL#3. It's available without a prescription and it really worked in relieving the pain and gas while my gut was healing from food triggers that set off a really bad IBS bout that lasted nearly a year. My triggers are milk products and gluten. Everybody is different so I think it's really important to figure what yours are. And I think that I need to take a probiotic every day. Maybe I don't have a good, healthy gut biome, so I need these to keep my gut healthy. Keep talking to people about their experience and you will figure this out for you. Good luck.

I am very healthy too despite my IBS and I haven’t needed to see my doctor about it either. Food doesn’t set my symptoms off; my trigger is stress.
