Hello there Buscopan doesn't work for me anymore, they have given me peppermint oil capsules which you have to take straight after eating, which help ease the pain. I get very bad abdominal pains and sometimes sickness/ diarrhoea. I have to be very careful what I eat and have to watch my weight, exercise and eat healthily. I have recently cut out caffeine and feel a lot better. I wish you all the best x

NOT A DOCTOR SO DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT but My doc prescriped anti spasmotics which have helped me but I am due to stop taking them at the end of the month. She put me on a 3 month course not sure if you can take them long term but might be worth asking your doctor about for some advice.
