Hi,

first, sorry for my English. I will try describe my problems. So.. 16 months ago  Problems started. I attended the gym and my goal was fat burning, so I tried carbohydrates waves ( it is diet which works with amount of carbohytrates some day low, some day high.. ) My first problem was feeling fullnes even after use WC, and yellow, pale poop with mucus and with pieces of food. I had appointment with my doctor and he did tests like colonoscopy, endoscopy, blood tests, sonography, poop tests and he discovered nothing! I lived with these symptoms over one year and it is still same. I think that it is even worse last month. I really dont know what to do I cant sleep because i feel that something is wrong with my bowels. I feel like I need to fart but I cant. And when I fart, there is not relief. I try detox program colo vada plus, this is herbs every day and 4 days i will starve next week, but I dont trust to this program. Please, is here anyone, who has some experiences? Do you have some tips for me? Do I have IBS? Thank you very much, I know that i must improve my english. I hope that you understand.

    Your symptoms could be IBS.  What has your doctor suggested?  Do you have stomach pain that moves about and change of bowel habit? If you have had no help after a year, it is time to change your doctor.  Try keeping a food diary.  I had to go to the doctor eight times, and saw a different one on each occasion and had negative tests over three and a half months before I got an IBS diagnosis.  My symptoms started with constipation, constant stomach pain that  moved about, nausea and loose stools with anxiety.

      Hi, thank you for your response!

      My doctor said that it is nothing and he can't do more. He is gastrocopy specialist and he is only gastro in my town. I have not problems with my stomach it is only about intestines and pale stool. Can exists other causes of my problems than IBS?

      Maybe I feel intestines but cause of symptoms is something else, but what? Do you discovered solution for you?

      I take Buscopan for the pain from time to time and oranges for constipation. Occasionally. I take Nurofen as well. To find out about other causes you will need to see a different doctor who hopefully will recognise your symptoms and diagnose you.  If you are still getting symptoms, there must be a reason.  It simply can't be nothing. It looks like your specialist has given up on you.

    It sounds like you have ibs, especially as the tests were negative.

    Keep a food diary to see what foods make it worse. Do not do detox programs they will make things worse! They are so bad for ibs.

      Do you have experience with detox programs? I am in half so now I finish it and then I will not do another detox. This detox is abour 4 days starving and drinking psyllium. I read that psyllium could help with IBS.

      Psyllium can make bloating pain and gas worse. It can help with diarrhoea and constipation in some people. Detoxes are rubbish. There is no scientific evidence for them. Your body uses you liver and kidneys to detox.
