OK, I'm new here, but I think that my symptoms fit with IBS, so I'm looking for guidance. REally very miserable right now, so any support is very welcome.I have nagging pain and discomfort for most of the day, but can generally ignore it. What I can't ignore is the waking times.When I first wake up, there is no pain or discomfort. After a few minutes, the first twinges start, and after a while, I have real hot pain in my central lower abdomen. If I stay in bed, then nausea kicks in. As soon as I get to the toilet, and basically clear out everything that is annoying my gut, then things settle down, and I can get through the day.So, does this fit with other people's experience, or do I have something that is unlike IBS???Looking for help hereChris
