    Hello j11119,

    How do you know that you have IBS and hemorrhoids at the same time? Did you get it checked with the doctor? I have the symptoms of both IBS and hemorrhoids, but I don’t have any bleeding. My doctor said that it is most likely hemorrhoids and she is going to do Sigmoidoscopy next week. I just feel rectal pressure and sometimes I feel very dull pain. Any help on this will be highly appreciated smile

    -Thanks
