Anybody here have IBS?

[Samantha3214]

Hey guys, I have been having horrible stomach problems (bloating, gas, diahreah) for a long time. All my tests came back normal, my colonoscopy and endoscopy was normal, h pylori test was normal, so I'm gonna ask my dr to prescribe me some IBS medicine. I was just wondering if anybody has any experience with ibs, what medicine do you take? Does it help with the bloating? That's my main concern.
I appreciate you all so much 😊

Edit: I also had my pancreas enzymes tested, and allergy tested

[DrugsToGetBig]

try cutting gluten out of your diet completely if you havent already

ex gf had to do that to avoid constant stomach issues

[stewartrochet]

Avoid caffeine, take fiber, drink lots of water. You could try a probiotic. There a lot of different IBS medications, depends what type of IBS you have.

[TheIronAsylum]

this is actually becoming very common its due ot the poison they put in all the food now its a very bad situation

My GF has been suffering from BAD IBS and GERD for over a year now. She's done all the procedures you have. We've been doing a food journal. I'm going to order her a Thryve gut biome test to see if there is anything else we can find out to alter her diet.

[JerryAtrix]

I used to have it, was in the bathroom up to 18 times a day, turns out I had a chit load of food allergies, go see an allergist or an immunologist, record all your foods eaten so you can draw correlations later on.

Stay away from spicy foods and check sig srs.

I had a severe case of IBS-D where I had this terrible yellow diarrhea several time a day, constant bloating and burping every 5min, what litteraly save me is intermittent fasting 18-6 (18 hours fasting and 6 eating windows) on a daily basis and a prolonged 72h fasting every 4 month. The 72h fasting helps you full restoring your instestinal mucosal layer and time restricted feeding keep the inflammation low because you give time to your body to heal. Also, you might want to consider a low carb diet, I mostly eat low carbs vegetable and meat (eggs, poultry, beef, fish, cheese). Forget about medication you need to address your diet, I don't have any bloating, no burping and no diarrhea.

I got diagnosed with UC about 6 years ago. Lost 40lb in a month chitting blood, puking nonstop, severe abdominal cramps. Did infusions for like a year and now do a once a month self injection (simponi) in leg and have never had a problem since. Read stories like these and I feel lucky, would suck to have to avoid foods/always chitting.

[zarathu5tra]

Yeah I do. Especially when I'm mentally stressed out. Stuff just turns to liquid and I feel chit. What helped me was getting some pro-biotics. They take some weeks to do their thing, but it definitely helped me recover faster from IBS and prevent it from happening all over. Also made me able to drink milk and gluten heavy meals.

[amikaelmorris]

make sure you aren't just lactose intolerant or something too, i figured that one out pretty late in my teens when suddenly i realized i felt like **** at school an hour after i ate my breakfast bowl of cereal

Look into BIOHM gut testing. Supposedly it's more into detail about the yeast/bacteria strains that are living in the gut. I just did a BIOHM test and I'm still waiting for the results, it takes about a month I hear

[hoganrulz]

Stop taking it in the ass, Sam.

[OffwhiteBrah]

lemme get in dem guts boo

[IronILLinois]

Quit smoking weed

[Xyus_Quebec]

Also, a zinc and iodine deficiency can mimic IBS symptoms

[dopamine72]

Taking meds instead of changing your diet is always a great idea

Oh wait....

[Swept]

IBS is a made up disorder, its all mental

[MIKES3]

I had surgery about 5 years ago for diverticulitis. Some how my bladder was adhered to my intestine. That $hits not fun

[Kiop]

dGL licorice
colostrum
Probiotics 5- billion at least

[chaunce54]

No, but I do have ABS.

[ErnieMccracken]

Are you juicing and blending yet? And FERMENTEDFOODSMAXXING?

[A-GAME]

I would try the elimination diet first. That way you can find out exactly what's causing you problems.

[Samantha3214]

You guys are awesome. Thank you. What kind of medicine works best for IBS bloating? Anyone know?

sometimes I think I do but not reeally


would not eat your ass / 10 though

[Nicklol]

h pylori test was a good idea. theres also other tests like that, i think one called sibo

you could have food allergies or something.

could be preparing food the wrong way or not cleaning your dishes,place or water bottles enough too. Clean your bottle every day.

wish I had a gf with this condition

Fuk man this is almost exactly what happened to me. Started feeling those symptoms dec. 2019, went from 225lbs to 145lbs from March 2020 to June and finally got checked out in august. I’m about to start transfusions within the next month or so. Wouldn’t wish this on anyone.

Damn yep that sucks sorry bro. Also they misdiagnosed me said I had cdiff so I got treated for that and of course nothing helped. I was loopy and out of it and those abdominal pains were ridiculous. Nonstop for a month.

Good luck bro. On r/c
