Getting m'y immodium in the morning
I use Miralax every night sometimes twice a day, and it has saved me! What helps you with constipation?
I do two things, Natural Calm (magnesium citrate) taken twice daily. Then I have been trying a new fiber called Pinch Magic fiber.. Drink plenty of water throughout the day, that is imperative!
Does anyone have irregular periods with their IBS
Yes i have. I never had them until i was diagnosed with ibs and gerd
Proto Bismol advertises it kills much bacteria. Is this helpful for IBS?
I don't know for sure but I wouldn't count on it . I wouldn't take it to kill bacteria. I'd just take it if I had the symptoms of diarrhea ,gas ,heartburn etc.if I needed it or wanted to take it.
So I have decided I am sick of the stomach pain, nausea, throwing up, and the other end issues. With no help from the dr’s. I finally am going to start giving up gluten and see if that helps eat a little better, and cleaner. More veggies that kind of stuff. Is there anything that others have tried that has helped, vitamins giving up certain things? Any help or incite would be very appreciated.. thank you

I used to have diarrhea quite often, but now I am almost always constipated. I have no idea how to deal with it. I eat 25g + of fibre each day and take Align. I have started taking Iberogast as I also have reflux issues, but nothing is working. I also have a lot of gas and get very bloated, pretty much all the time...
Restoralax does work, but often times too well and then I’m going multiple times a day!
Any ideas of how to fix this???? I would really appreciate any input!! 🙂
Also, I have constipation unless i take a laxative since I can not have a B.M on my own. I take Milk of Magnesia twice per week and have done this for 21/2 years. I go several times after it starts… 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. 😒
