I have had this Ibs-D for 11 years, last 3 bad, and since last january, every day, so I take Imodium every morning before I get up, sometimes I will have 2-3 very loose bms in a morning, I also take colfac for spasms, not helping much though, But since last wednesday I have had stomach cramps 2-3 times a day and urgent loose bms and I am taking 3-4 Imodium instead of the usual 1-2. I have bloating and wind and pain in the tummy 24/7 and My doctor says there is nothing wrong , its my IBS-D, Ive had all the usual tests and that I must get on with my life and not get uptight as it will make it worse, I know this, but on days when I am relaxed and I still get cramps and multiple bms, it makes me uptight and not want to go out in case of an accident. Why cant the docotors do more and why cant she understand how it makes me feel, in that im worried to go out, I suffer from anxiety and depression and am on tablets for that and have CBT. My doctor says there is nothing else she can do for me. I have just about had enough, my life is gone, I dont work, but will have to eventually find work as benefits wont pay out forever. I dont see how I can work like this. I have tried mikes cds, calcium, probiotics, antispasmodics, Imodium, nothing works. So fed up and unhappy.Any help , advice please. Desperate.
