  1. IBS Diarrhea (IBS-D)
    Sometimes I wake up with an extreme feeling of urgency and diarrhea. About 20% of the time, I would say I get trapped diarrhea. You can tell you have diarrhea because the pain, but youre constipated or blocked. It is the fucking worse. What do you do when you have it?

    Hi guys. My name is Zin. I live in Germany for eight months now and I am an asylum seeker. Hang on as this post might be long. Back in my home country my bowel movements were normal and nothing serious to note. But when I moved here to Germany, my bowel movements changed. My husband and I once...

    Hi all, I'm looking for peoples' inputs on whether they've experienced the same symptoms as me and I really only have IBS or if I should head back to the doctor. Long story short I have IBS and recently moved to Korea so I had access to IBS medication (because Koreans have medicine for...

    Hi all, I've had ibs for a while - discomfort and pain are my main symptoms. Often feel like I have trapped gas. Since being on painkillers for an unrelated painful situation this year, I have been even more sensitive to the discomfort and pain from my gut. I guess what I'm dealing with is...

    About 7 months ago I began getting pressure in my upper chest. This is not the type of pressure that is sharp pain, but rather just a constant mild pressure that is relieved by burping. I can typically only burp away this pressure if I am standing or sitting up, and the pressure seems to be the...

    Hi all, I've posted fairly recently but I just can't figure out what's going on. After a colonoscopy and a month long stint on morphine for an anal fissure, I suddenly developed severe ibs like I've never had before. The symptoms are: - abdominal pain ranging from discomfort/fullness to...
  9. Abdominal Pain
    Hello everyone, I just had a query that someone might be able to help out with. A little backstory in brief: Pretty mild IBS-D for 3 years. More regular, looser stools, bit of abdominal discomfort now and then, gas etc. Par for the course but thankfully not too severe, and pretty easily...

    Hi all! I really want to make the world a better place for us people who suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome and give back the day-to-day quality of life that we so badly need (and deserve!). Could you maybe help upping the numbers of people who fill out the IBS questionnaire I've made? It...

    Hi there folks. I'm sorry if it's posted in the wrong discussion group, I couldn't really find where exactly this question should be posted at. I posted about my situation a few months ago, I think more than 6 months ago. Back then I was full of worries and pain. What happened since then...

  15. IBS Diarrhea (IBS-D)
    Thought I'd share this. It really helps when my gut is all bound up and tight with gas. It's a yoga routine that targets indigestion. http://www.health.com/health/m/gallery/0,,20737691_last,00.html Make sure you read the text because the pictures aren't exactly correct on all the slides.

  17. IBS Diarrhea (IBS-D)
    Hello, I am a woman in college who has suffered from IBSD since high school. Lately, I feel like I can't really be myself around men in the sense that I don't feel like men would understand my stomach issues or be compassionate about them. I feel like it would be really embarrassing to admit...
  18. IBS Diarrhea (IBS-D)
    Hi Guys, I have pretty prominent discomfort after I have a BM. It never feels like I've evacuated completley, I have a burning/painful sensation, and sometimes experience some leakage and itching for a time afterward. It's bad enough at times that I just hide in my office because I don't want...

    So here is a little bit of a story lol, over the last two months I have been in the hospital twice and each time I was told I was okay and just fine. Since then I have been diagnosed with IBS and have been under ALOT of stress since the passing of my father (about 4 months ago now) and the...
