IBS stopping me from normal life
Posted , 6 users are following.
I have had IBS all my life and recently it has been waking me up at night, causing me great pain that isn’t relieved by a BM, and also increased shivering. Does anyone else get old and goose bump-y when having a bad IBS day? I also think part of it is a psychological thing as I get scared of being sick, even though I know I won’t be. Does anyone else get any of this?

Hi, it’s horrible IBS I get good days and bad days had it for many years now.
At the moment I’m suffering from a lot of bloating & gurgling lower abdomen.
Sometimes I wonder if this is IBS or something else it’s worrying.

Hello Isobel,
Yeah I've had this pretty much all my younger years, how old are you may I ask?
I always out the goose pimples and shivering down to an adrenaline rush brought on by a panic attack about possibly being sick.
What's your diet like and do you eat before bed?

Having always suffered from chronic sinusitis I didn't figure it out at first. I could get up feeling perfectly well then my sinus would kick in sometimes after a BM. I did all the normal things that I did for a sinus attack to no avail. Then I began to realise that this was the start of an attack I couldn't get warm I just had to sleep when the pain would let me. At first this would last for a morning then as the attacks got worse they would last for a day or two I would ache all over, just have to go with the flow as I had no energy just as if I had flu. I have also had attacks when I have simply felt as if I was burning up ( this has happened when I have been out.) I used to feel nauseous. It's really is horrible.

People with IBS either will get diarrhoea or constipation or a mixture of both. Maybe see a different doctor to get a firm answer. Sounds as if your doctor doesn't know.
