    Hi I am confused why you start tapering down your tablets? You should take what the doctor prescribed or they won't work for you. This is why you are suffering these symptoms. You need to have been feeling better for at least 6 months before attempting to slowly come off them. Even then your symptoms can return so you would need to go back on them again. x

    hi aakasha, i rsad your post and thought maybe your medication isn't right for you. Go back to your doctor, the medication could be causing your increased ibs problems i would see if there was anything else you can say.

      you are right . M meditation does not work properly or should be changed. so should go back to Doctor .

      Hi Aaaksha, i think you are right! You need to do what is right for you and no+one else, do see your doctor and if you don't get any joy then change who you see. I wish you luck and step outside your comfort zone, i have had to to earn money. I hate it but have a reason ss i can't stand where i live and will be glad to move away. Been at uni should be OK
