I was just wondering does anyone experience body aches and fatigue with IBS? Last night after I went to sleep I started having body aches and was like NO!! I can.t get sick... I did have a flare up yesterday and it when on all day and apparently through the night with the aches and then this morning too. I've been on a light diet since yesterday. Just curious if body aches is normal. I feel so sleepy and run down
Lately I have been having lower back pains when I have major attacks. Looking forward to getting home and seeing my doctors and get answers.
One day at a time! Had a good day today!
I haven't found anything that helps at all, awful feeling of pressure too.
I use a warm compress and sip something hot. It’s an old remedy I learned a long time ago in nursing school. It’s called “heat and hot.” There was also a concoction that the hospital pharmacy made… read more
Dx IBS-D but have had weeks that I am constipated and then diarrhea for days. I can have weeks of normal GI going-ons as well. So wondering if this dx is correct or if something else could be going on. I was treated for diverticulitis (suspected) in February. Things were GREAT while I was on those meds.
Yep that's IBS for ya! It's very hard to control and unpredictable. I've had it for many years. I just deal with it on a day to day basis. When I go out I don't eat. I mostly eat plain soft food...no… read more
Most times, after moving my bowels I have the constant feeling of still having to go. I do go a lot but it takes many bowel movements until the feeling goes away. It is miserable. I am happiest on days when I don’t go at all!
Can anyone else identify with this and is there anything that helps. Thanks.
Mine too. Constipation for almost 2 weeks, and then diarrhea for a week. I suffer from migraine as well. I am afraid I'm going to get fired. 😒

I was diagnosed with IBS over 30 yrs ago. I will vomit quite a bit during my attack. It will seemed blocked at first. Then the vomiting comes, sometimes before I have a break through (explosion) and sometimes during going. After what I call my attack I’m so depleted and weak, I have nothing left in me. I’ll go to bed. I’ve never seen anyone mention that they also vomit? I’ve been to the Er twice in the last 6 month after an attack. Once I was very low in potassium, and the other magnesium. It… read more
Hello Donna sorry to hear you are feeling so rotten I either feel nauseous or throw up
If you tested positive, your doc should have given you an antibiotic for it. But for me, i also had to go off Gluten because Gluten feeds the SIBO, so that's how I got rid of it completely. I went off… read more
Nothing I usually do seems to be helping lately (ie fiber, pre/probiotics, peppermint caps)
DX is medical term for diagnosis. EPI is Endocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency….. not enough digestive enzymes are produced by my pancreas. Can’t afford the “Creon” prescription for that so I try to use… read more
I don't know anybody who has used this for IBS. Have you? Marijuana is legal here in Michigan. I have used it for my anxiety and it does help, but I don't use it on a regular basis. This would be… read more
