I started with IBS last year and this has floored me . Its not fair ! I am type 1 diabetic, epilepsy , severley sighted and now this. I am scared to go out even though lock down has finished and dont know where the end is. I am using the fodmap diet and as yet this has had no effect. IBS is not something you can talk to anyone about as I feel shameful. My husband is very supportive as he has crohns he is my hero but i am sick of not making to the loo in time. I had not inclination I needed the loo and therefore pood myself it is costing me alot in imodium tablets. I had a camera check and revealed nothing they just said my "levels" were up whatever that indicates. Can anyone help the despair I am in I am trapped in my own home.

Helen....try cutting out all dairy for a couple of weeks. ie milk, cheese, butter, yoghurt, fromage frais etc etc. You may have become intolerant. Many people are diagnosed as IBS but its often a food intolerance....gluten and dairy being the most common. There are thousands of us in the dairy intolerance bracket. If there is no difference after 2 weeks, try leaving all gluten/wheat out of your diet and re introduce dairy. Its worth keeping a food diary to try and track when you get the upsets. If its happening every day, what do you eat every day?
