    Yes. I have IBS-C.  Painful,no appetite    I take gummie probiotics 1 a day and do peppermint capsules to help with bloating and gas.  Hot tea with ginger in it after eating help to not cause bloating.  Haven’t found the right foods to eat LowFoodMap diet.   Doctors just gave me Bentyel to help spasms and pain which doesn’t help on some days   I use heating pad helps alittle had cat scans ,mri, blood taken stool samples, still don’t find anything.   What are questions about it ???

      Yes it’s hard to find foods that don’t trigger that’s y I have a small selection on what I eat I had same done and a biopsy done still say ibs C    I was looking into a test called Empty Test. Which u eat food that has stuff in it that lights u up and they take pictures of ur food going down to see if they see anything out of the ordinary,

    I started with IBS C which at times changes to IBS A.  Buscopan, painkillers and lots of fruit help when constipated.

      I’ve never had pain near my bladder with my IBS.  When I have felt sick, it has been due to my stomach pain.

      My pain moves all over my stomach but only comes on when I get anxious or stressed.  There is no one location of pain. In the UK, my bowel movements are hard and constipated, in Italy, they are always soft and I go regularly around the same time every morning.

    Intermittently The constipation like pain wakes me up early morning I have a glug of Aloe Vero liquid and go back to bed that tends to loosen things up after a while. Trouble is IBS as we all know affects in different ways and some solutions work for some and not for others.

    ive been recovering from a Stroke for about a year , it’s been tough but I’m slowly improving. Sometimes I think the IBS is worse.

      Sorry to hear that strokes are hardcore. One family member brushed off diabetes, heart attacks, infection but the stroke was the one with the most serious impact. 

      Hope you are doing ok

      Much appreciated I’m doing quite well considering. I’m lucky enough to be getting a lot of Neuro Therapy which is making the difference. Like I said the IBS which is clearly caused by my limited exercise and stress is more irritating.

      That is good. I have not long started a new job and only 30 mins so no exercise at lunch unlike my last job. I am under a lot of pressure currently as lots to sort out and each job is a a big one. The first I have forecast a month but this is all old errors. I have no idea when I will be able to actually start the day to day. So far though I have been pretty good re: IBS.
