Feeling Of Having To Move Bowels
A myIBSteam Member asked a question 💭

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.

SIBO - Small Intestine Bacteria Overgrowth
A myIBSteam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone else been diagnosed with SIBO? I've rarely seen it mention when researching IBS, but the new doctor I went to yesterday suggested a modified fodmap diet that eliminates additional foods to address it. You can get tested for SIBO but I decided to just start treatment right away without confirmation of the test, because I am so desperate to feel better.

A myIBSteam Member

I think I heard somewhere that you should not use probiotics when you have SIBO but I am not 100% sure.A pharmacist would be able to give you the correct answer ! ❤️

Never Normal Bowel Movements
A myIBSteam Member asked a question 💭

My gastroenterologist is trying to help but so far nothing.

Thankyou it is better but so much I cannot eat. I hope and send prayers you feel better. It sure is the pits.🥰

Dr prescribed me a blue pill it does not help.
