Hi all, I'm new here, I have a quick question. For the last 3 years I have suspected that I have a mild form of IBS. My major symptom is that when I am in class, and it is very quiet, and as long as i'm sitting, I feel abdominal pressure and it releases at irregular times. For example, I will be sitting for about 5 mins, then I feel the pressure, sometimes the pressure holds for over a min, other times it just releases. It rattles my stomach and is usually pretty loud (like stomach growling) It's so annoying, I find myself trying to get into class early so I can turn on the heater or AC, in order to lessen the noise, or sometimes, when it's loud in the class room, I don't have any problems. This had bad over the last couple of years. It started out maybe one class a week, now it's just about every class. I'm just afraid to go to the DR because there is probably not much he can do. Thanks,Steve
