  5. Your Story
    Hi everyone, This is my first post on this forum, so I am just going to tell my story. My digestive issues really started to become an issue when I was finishing up college in 2014.

  6. IBS Constipation (IBS-C) and Chronic Constipation
    Hi people, I have been struggling with severe and awful-awful constipation for years. I've seen many doctors of course, few have wanted to help me, some have told me IBS cannot show constipation symptoms (?), some have told me it's psychological.

  13. Leaky Gas (LG) / Incontinence / Odor
    Hello everyone, I found this on the IAS Wikipedia page and can't believe we haven't discussed this yet (seems like this particular section was edited on februari 2017): The references: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/08/110809132220.htm...

  19. IBS Diarrhea (IBS-D)
    I started with IBS-D in my late twenties and it was full-blown within a few years (meaning almost every time I ate, I had to visit the bathroom suddenly and urgently within a half hour or so). Some foods bothered me more than others. Since I have a job where I cannot get up and go freely, I...

    I made a post in my IBS journal which I wanted to move to the general discussion so that it's accessible to everyone; this details multiple paths I've taken in my attempt to cure IBS.
