Stomach cramps with ibs

I suffered with IBS since early teens and now lived with it for over 40 years. One of symptoms I seem to get every so often after a bout of IBS is stomach cramps/pain in the bottom right hand side of my stomach. It can last several weeks sometimes then just goes as quickly as it started. Just wondering if anyone else out that experiences these symptoms and if so do you take any medication to help relieve discomfort. I have thought about taking probiotics but not sure if this will help. So any help or advice would be much appreciated.

    hi cj, i don't know what this but i don't think it's something serious because it would have got worse or your symptoms may have changed. i hope you find out why this happens. could it be grumbling appendix for instance? how does this pain make you feel and have you asked your doctor's what this is? i would start to write down when you get this and how you feel once you get it. you could have pockets of acid in that area. i could guess anything! go back to your doctor's. tell them what you wrote on here.
