Irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS, is the most commonly diagnosed gastrointestinal disorder, affecting at least 10% of the global population. IBS is characterized by chronic or recurrent abdominal pain, associated with a change in bowel habits. Most patients can be classified, according to their predominant stool pattern, into IBS with diarrhea, IBS with constipation, or mixed-stool IBS, in which diarrhea alternates with constipation. Other symptoms may include mucus in stools, bloating, gassiness, and feelings of severe illness. IBS symptoms can be triggered by certain foods, stress, and often get worse around menstrual periods in women. People with IBS are also likely to have other disorders such as fibromyalgia, major depression, or chronic fatigue syndrome.
IBS occurs more frequently in young adults, and affects more women than men.
IBS is a functional disorder, meaning the bowel does not function properly, but there is no observable structural damage. It is thought to associate with problems in the communication system between the gut and the central nervous system, known as the gut-brain axis. This system not only ensures proper functions of the digestive system, but also adapts digestive activities to the body’s different physiological states. Basically, sensory nerve endings in the gut transmit information about the intestinal environment to the brain. The brain integrates this information with inputs from the rest of the body, and sends back neural and hormonal signals to control various gut activities. For example, intestinal muscle contraction is regulated so that the bowel moves food at an optimal pace, allowing the body to reabsorb the right amount of water and nutrients before stools can form.
IBS patients often have irregular intestinal motility patterns. When food moves too fast through the intestine, less water is reabsorbed and stools become more watery. When food moves too slowly, more water is reabsorbed and constipation results. Sensory nerve endings in the bowel of IBS patients are also more sensitive, or “irritated”, producing the sensation of pain. This is known as visceral hypersensitivity.
IBS is classified as a syndrome, meaning a group of symptoms, rather than a single disease. This is because distinct underlying mechanisms may drive disease progression in different groups of patients. Several possible mechanisms have been identified. These include:
- alterations in brain function caused by psychological trauma, anxiety, or stress;
- intolerance to certain foods, such as short chain carbohydrates, gluten, dairy products;
- post-infectious changes, such as low-grade inflammation or altered intestinal permeability;
- disturbances in the gut microbiota;
- abnormalities in serotonin metabolism;
- and genetics.
It is common for IBS to result from a combination of several of these factors.
Diagnosis is based on symptoms, but tests are done to exclude other more serious conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease and cancers. The latest diagnostic criteria (Rome III criteria) include: abdominal pain or discomfort lasting at least 3 days a month in the last three months, associated with at least two of three factors: relief upon defecation, pain onset associated with a change in stool frequency, or pain onset associated with a change in the form of stool.
IBS rarely requires hospitalization and does not increase risks for colon cancers. Current treatments aim to relieve symptoms, which, in most people, can be managed with diet, and stress reduction. Severe cases may be treated with medications.

I think i may have developed this as well due to stress. What was treatment like for you
I agree that anxiety and stress really do affect our Gastrointestinal tract :(
Stress is a major factor for almost all of my IBS clients, and addressing it usually gives some significant improvement.
Amen.
How you cure from that disease
Yes
@@ConfluenceNutrition I have anxiety and IBS . What shall I do ? Change my diet or ask for prescription
The social difficulties associated with this disorder are one of the worst on the planet.

@@gangadeb4334 abdominal pain and cramping b ha?
this condition is a nightmare. i was born with severe ibs ( constipation + diarrhea ) AND lactose intolerance. everyone tells me to just avoid specific foods, but the thing is EVERYTHING i eat causes diarrhea and pain. if i drink or eat a little fast.. boom instant diarrhea. it’s horrible and it has been this way my entire life. i can’t go to a restaurant in peace, i can’t be in the car for a while in peace. it’s even worst if i know there are no restrooms nearby.. i’m only 17 and it’s ruining my life. i just want to be able to eat and drink like everyone else without the worry of having to use the restroom and anger people around me when i have to get up to do so. my family gets upset when i have to go to a public restroom, so it adds more anxiety. i’m so tired of it. the thing is, it’s not always caused by stress either. sometimes i’ll be eating at home in peace, then 5 seconds later i have to run to the restroom.
The fact that your own family gets upset for you "inconveniencing" them instead of being supportive and compassionate when they know how much you suffer from it makes me wonder what kind of family dynamics you have at home.
Well it still seems stress is the major factor here. Thing with stress is, you don't always realize you're under stress. It's an insidious pressure that breaks you up from within, but on the bright side, you can learn to control it. My advice, speaking from experience here is making a food schedule and keep yourself to that schedule from now on for at least a year or two. Eat EXACTLY at those times, minimally three meals a day - try to make all your doings predictable and according to some schedule. Your body will respond by getting used to this routine and therefore you'll be under less physiological stress, because it knows when it needs to be hungry or take a dump. Next also very important here is daily exercise.
It took me 3 years to get noticeable results, I'm feeling a lot stronger and have more energy than ever now. I can even deviate from the schedule from time to time like waking up earlier or eat later sometime without getting nausea, bloating and air stuck in places it can't get out. I can also tolerate gluten, sugars and lactose again. No secrets here, fixed schedules and exercise is the key. But you gotta be patient.
Do you always have abdominal pain?
Daily be under the sun for 2 to 3 hrs or take vitamin D supplement then u will quikly get relief from IBS beacuase i got cured by this within 1 day this method worked for me effectively. If u get result pls share as much as possible becoz the people who r suffering with this are living like a hell life i faced it that is why i know the pain
Same with my 10 years child
I think anxiety plays a major role in developing this condition
Nervous poops bro
You might be right
100%
It can, definitely, but in about 60% of cases, it's due to an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine!
@@ConfluenceNutrition how do you get rid of the bacteria and how do you know if you have it?
My IBS-M is physically and mentally killing me. I skip work once a week because I'm stuck in pain in the bathroom. Sad part is nobody cares so family tell me I'm being a coward or they say other mean things.
Stress, depression, and my PTSD is making it worse. I'm 27 and still receive abuse since my childhood. I tend to try ignoring people but it's stressing my stomach severely. The pain I get is so painful I sometimes pass out.
Seek help!! You are not alone
Same shit, good luck man.
I totally relate! But I am hopeful that God will relieve our suffering. May the Lord bless us with healing!

@@jadabraaksma6877 Went to more doctors appointments, it was worse than I thought, it's Crohn's Disease. Had all the symptoms, so that's that I guess.
@@JustACatOuO I'm so sorry. Hopefully it won't be to difficult to manage. At least with Chrons there is more awareness about it, and your doctors may be able to find a regimen that works for you. You are in my prayers 🙏 ❤️
I’ve literally been searching the internet for days now trying to figure out WTH is going on with me. Been battling this for about 2 years now. It first started out as lactose intolerance but along the line things got worse and I’m pretty convinced an extended period of stress, anxiety and trauma triggered this.
I don’t have anyone I can talk to about it, so it’s been pretty much me and my symptoms in the dark.
I’ve learnt to avoid certain foods that trigger it( dairy products majorly, spicy food, alcohol and a few others). Also eating late and in large quantities could spell danger.
It sucks to have to deal with this, it gets me really anxious and irritable, and when I get really stressed it does feel like depression.
It’s pretty annoying to think that your gut could have you anxious and depressed.
I basically deal with mine by avoiding lactose I think it’s the major trigger for me I can occasionally have spicy food in little portions but that’s about it.
As far as the anxiety and depression is concerned it comes in waves and I think the best way I handle is by ignoring(counter intuitive 😅).
Focus on the positive things you’ve got going on if you don’t have anything positive create one no matter how little( buy a console, take a walk, buy a shirt, maybe get a pet etc)
I hope this helps
I've been trying to tell everyone that i have stress and depression kind of things cuz of my stomach... thank u so much for understanding!!!! may i ask did u also have muscle pain in ur neck or legs. the thing is killing me man
@@yosefalemayehu4463 Hi Yosef, I don’t remember having pains particularly in my neck or leg muscles. But there’s generally a feeling of fatigue and general muscle discomfort that comes with severe symptoms of IBS. If you’re experiencing extreme pains in those two area alone you should probably check it out.

After dealing with it for 15 years even tried suicides multiple times. and having multiple surgeries of piles, fissure and fistula due to ibs c constipation 😭😭😭😭. a psychiatrist cured mine with in 1.5 years of treatment. please take below mentioned medicine for any kind of ibs without thinking twice atleast for 1.5 years and you will be 100000% fine.
SERTRALINE 25 MG morning and in evening
PROTHIADEN 25 MG morning and in evening

CLONAZEPAM 0.5 MG before sleep
NORMAXIN morning and in evening OR COLASPA-X before bed in night.
trust me , after visinting 11 psychiatrists. only these medicines worked and cured me from root.
All the best for new life 😍😍😍
I know everyone is different but here’s what helped me the most -
Managing my anxiety
Avoiding sugary drinks
Eating healthy food (mainly protein)
I find that if I eat mainly meat and unprocessed food then it’s not as bad
Same here when I eat mostly lean meat I feel the best, almost anything else and I feel terrible.
Truth! Although never fixed I feel better on mostly animal based foods. Anything processed throws me out of my loop.
@@Jstat101 interesting
@@robo9466 did you have abdominal pain on right upper
@@footballedits76 no, no specific spot. Just pain.
I lost my mom then my baby 1 month apart. Then our house flooded, moved into a new condo where the landlord keep trying to "get" with my husband.. moved out. Kept getting one abusive job after the other, literally quit a job every 6 weeks. Once life settled down a bit I got addicted to eating sugar. Booooooooom then and now I have DEBILITATING constipation. Hospitalized type constipation. I know can only eat 5 things and I'm in pain ALL OF THE TIME. I am on a high dose of magnesium so that's at least helping with going to the bathroom. But I do think my past, all the stress caused this. And now I have severe anxiety over this and the pain. Lol Im desperately trying to meditate and stop being so angry and stressed out. Bless anyone who has this awful issue xo
I am so sorry for your loss and what you are going through. Been suffering for 10 years now with IBS
Pray unceasingly and ffocus onnJESUS.. dont lose hope.. dont lose faith.
GOD🙏helps surrender it all to HIM🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you very much and God bless you for such hardwork.
I got this after COVID infection this year. Probably IBS, pain, diarrhoea and constipation mixed, right after/during eating the food. Fatigue, weakness, weight loss
I think the same happened to me too… Bit O never got the Covid test…
My 20yr old son got this after covid as well! Severely!!!
How are you now?
Same after covid a got this ibs
How long after Covid did you get the IBS symptoms? Was it right after or a few months after? And are you still the same or any better now?
When I was a kid, I was having enormous stress due to some personal problem, at that time I used to recognise that whenever I was not relaxed and eating food at that time, I was having stomach pain. I told these things to my family and friends as a suggestion but they said they never have it. Now I understand why only I was suffering (enormous stress) and now later in life when I just completed my graduation in covid time I got severe breathing issues, after so many checkup all doctors told me that their is nothing wrong physically. So al these things are stress related. Than I thought that I will fix this or that in my life than I will feel less stress but that never happened, now simply running in the morning has resolved all those issues for me as it increase my immunity, reduced depression, improve digestion. Thanks bhole nath (hindu god), and may he help u guys as well ☺️☺️🌈🌈🎈🎈🎈
Running?
@@3ankrollk1ng86 yes, I really feel like I am connected with nature and feel relaxed, also while running I try to alter my thinking by looking at life from the bigger picture perspective
I don't know what's the pbm with me . I have severe pain in my lower abdomen when I go to toilet and when the pressure created 😞I can feel the transfer of waste or food occuring inside my intestine. I have the breathing issues but I can't even guess what is happening. Acc. To tests there are no pbm concluded out. What should I have to do???I really don't know is it IBS or not .😑😑😑hey prakhsit, do you find me relatable in this pbm or u have some other pbm , plz tell me
@@komalpanghal207 feeling something and something real physically are different, feeling food is moving inside intestine is not a big deal I guess. Firstly I would like you to go for all medical checkups which can either tell u whats wrong or can ensure you that it is only psychological. Have u visited for any test regarding your breathing issue. If u think u r really living a stressful life than take it as 70 - 30. Else vice versa. Best of luck.
Depression has the key role in ibs pain. I have been suffering from this pain and it evn hurts on pressing lower abdomen. It flares up wen i am in stress.
I have been having this pain lower left ? Quite concerning
@@LiEsenberg.aka.walterMitty Me too, my pain started about a week ago and it hurt like hell. I self diagnosed myself with IBS-D since I had all of the symptoms since a kid but up until a week ago I have never had this localized pain in my left lower quadrant. The pain is worse at night after a meal which is a sharp pain and spasms in my intestines. I went to a urgent care facility and they prescribed me dicyclomine which has help with the spams and pain but I hate the side effects of the drug and makes it worse when you have to take it 3 times a day. I just hope it isn’t anything more serious.
@@Noface678update?
@@Fun_Facts7212 pain is gone. At the time I was diagnosed with h pylori. That didn’t explain the pain in the lower left part of my abdomen though. I took the meds for about a month and after that the pain started to slowly go. I don’t have pain anymore so I guess the bacteria triggered something in my intestines.
@@Noface678 so it was just a infection that went away? If so,You're so lucky dude
Being 15 and having to go to school with exams also coming up is a nightmare
I feel u bro just for future reference maybe tell a teacher and they might let you use the faculty bathroom because if your school is like mine you definitely don’t wanna use the regular bathrooms
When you can't argue to someone and made them believe it hurts, physically and mentally stressing you out. I thought it was just constipation and the food intakes but man it's also about the environment effect. Stress and anxiety plays a major role on triggering this one. Now, whenever I recall something terrible or might overthink about school activities, I end up holding and squeezing my stomach in the bathroom. I just prayed when I think I was about to faint.
Ok I feel better knowing this I definitely have IBS so I know why I feel this way
I agree when he said IBS makes you feel like you have a serve illness shit makes you fell like you have stage 4 cancer at times when you in so much pain. You literally feel like you about to pass out from the pain when you hungry until you eat or the pain is relieved after you take a shit
I'm lactose and gluten intolerant. If I have any of these foods it flares up. Sometimes the pain is so bad it knocks me out for hours.
My colleague developed this after loosing a loved one so certain stress can definitely be a factor.
I am pretty low in anxiety but lately I've been under pressure, and because of a little injury in the low back, with pain started to get these symptoms.
Depression and PTSD totally could have done it to me bc I never had IBS and after my first ever panic attack this happened and got worse !
Do you still have this issue
Same 😔
I feel like you're telling my story
I got it after I got sick once. Thing is, I hadn't been sick in 9 years in a row and then it happened. I'm convinced it was caused by psychological stress since I'm sharing a space with someone that caused me psychological stress, a textbook narcissist. Unfortunately I'm in no position to just go elsewhere, so all that rage that builds up for this person but instead of exploding outwards and tearing that fuck a new hole in its face, it implodes inwards and it's like poison making you sick. Sometimes I wonder I might do everyone else a service by just acting on my rage and really cause some carnage, but I'd be losing precious years of my life behind bars - and that's the last place you want to be with IBS.
@@OshaoxinDo you still have it?
I'm pretty sure physical exercise has a positive effect as well, as it does to almost everything pathological.
Iv been stressed recently , And I have been feeling nots and loss of appitite and Iv felt more anxious I didnt no the meaning for how I felt , So i feel this is it. it makes sense to me anyways the most.
Ibs is a nightmare just thinking about it.
I stay away from all the foods that they say cause it but it’s crazy how I eat normal things sometimes in very small portions and get the most unbearable abdominal pain. And I also eat things that should trigger IBS but nothing happens!! So it’s very unpredictable really !!
The pain is usually on my middle upper abdominal area but can also shit to the sides.
It sometimes starts with heartburn and slowly develops into bloating and the worst painful cramps. I feel like I’m too full and gassy and I can’t release any gas. No amount of water can solve the issue. It also sometimes feel like drinking water can make the situation feel worse. And then comes Constipation.
The worst pain is when I wan to sleep or during sleep. I sometimes wake up from the pain and find myself in face down ass up position.
I also sometimes make my self throw up to ease up the discomfort.
It sometimes last a day or 3 days sometimes 4.
Nothing I tried worked. The worst for me is the pain. Unfortunately it’s not like a headache, you can’t just take pain killer for it. All anti spasms medications didn’t manage the pain much for me.
My problem with all the advices I got from doctors or saw online they don’t touch much on pain management.
Peace and love ☮️ ❤️
Please share your experience with me and if you relate I would appreciate some advice on pain management
I've had it for a year, tried multiple medications but the one thing that's helped the most are probiotics. For bloating I usually drink some warm to hot water or take an antacid like gaviscon. It really gets things moving. For the pain, the probiotics have reduce the frequency and severity of the stomach cramps. Take some ginger everyday as well, it will help with inflammation.
I do hope this helps.
I pray that God would heal you and make you whole again.
@@tapiwamutiracha9675 I'm glad you discovered probiotics helped!
@@tapiwamutiracha9675 thank you for sharing your experience with me. I will definitely look up probiotics and see if it’s gonna work for me
Try psyllium husk brother, and drink 4 to 5 litres water.
I have the exact same experience as you it’s like reading something I’ve written, still trying to figure it all out but I’m so tired of having to explain to doctors, family, friends etc and everyone saying “there must be something you’re doing wrong” “surely that’s fine you had it last week?” “It’s in your head” “you shouldn’t be making yourself sick” but like how the hell else do I get it out of me? Meanwhile we’re just trying our best to navigate the painful and erratic system we have no choice but to utilise in order to have energy and basically live. I really hope you find something that helps peace and love❤️
That explains a lot thanks
Amazing video about IBS
I relate to everyone as I'm going through this myself, I have started on probiotic capsules recently & feel that I'm getting better, will give an update soon. I hope this info helps, wishing good health to everyone!!
What brand?
@@ElVaqueroTiano I'm using TATA brand which is available in my country, i think any brand should work fine. These probiotics mainly help in digestion!
Update after a month i stopped using probiotics as it did not work for me, i have been taking triphala tablets and my condition has improved a lot, and recently i discovered I wasn't chewing the food properly and i have improved upon that, It has certainly made a difference.
Note: I had intolerance to certain kinds of food mainly oily ones and chewing them until they become very much liquid like has helped me overcome this.
@@playerunknown2192 please update us if that helps im in so much pain i feel like i cant take it anymore
@@Jackfrost-np4bv it's working for now, i think about the food while eating it, i chew it properly and then swallow and also don't think negatively, imagine you are being blessed by God and it's entering your body and mind as bright sunshine. Think about the good in this world or any fond memory of your childhood when you were healthy which makes you confident and you feel the peace. Things will definitely get a lot better just believe in it.
Heat and humidity stress also plays a part in this.
Very informative video in less than 5 mins. Thank you, this is helpful.

شكراً لك
Just to let all you guys know, one may think I'm a very popular person and my life is smooth. Far from it!! It is the complete opposite. I suffer from IBS and this video has helped me greatly. Mine has resulted from fear of the future, being alone forever, stress and anxiety. It has affected all areas of my life. During my regular hospital infusion, that lasts round about four hours, I went to the toilet 12 times!! This also results from family history, circumstances and including hostile prejudice on a daily basis. I was also paranoid about chromes. Lo and behold someone said to me who actually has chromes, if you did, they would have found it in your blood test. I constantly go to the toilet more times than I count and embarrassingly, have toilet accidents in which I feel I need to wear a diaper. Just because someone may look popular on the outside, doesn't mean you know what goes on inside them. It's a disguise. It's not the real person.
This is 100% truth, putting on a front becomes a coping mechanism but you end up feeling all alone.
i gave up on finding someone who would understand me...i just learned that will be alone forever and that life could be worse like i could be paralyzed ,blind ect i always try and look at things that way....do you agree if you cant find happiness in your self you sure as hell wont find it in someone else...
Get a fecal calprotectin test that will rule out crohns. It's a protein found in you stool test its really important you do this ..because you might hsve crohns hence the amount of times you are going to the toilet that's the biggest sign plus bleeding , hope you get some help .
@Afrikan wow really. How does this come about? I feel for you. I know how you feel. When I went to go and see Dua Lipa at 02 Arena, London, think I went to the toilet 20 times. I nearly cried. I just couldn't stop and went once during her concert.
@@danjan9804 yeah I think so. Though there is a lot of pressure for us guys and even girls, that if you are not having sex, then the world thinks there is something wrong with you. This in itself, causes a great deal of pressure in an individual and also brings on symptoms of IBS. Especially if you believe in no sex before marriage or even if you didn't, because we live in such a sexualised society. This builds a phenomenal pressure and anxiety on both old and young people. But it is normally the wicked people that prosper the most and don't have these alignments, because they live their lives on the expense of others in order to succeed in life. So because their mind is wicked, they don't care, so life is easy for them. But for those who try to live a decent life, suffer from things such as IBS because we want to do good in life.

There it is weeks that I only go to the bathroom once a day , but sometimes I have days that i go 3 or 4 times. It changes the color of the stool even the shape, in the morning diarrhea and by the night normal. And also i have been struggling from anxiety and stress since January soo it makes me think that it is from that and also sometimes i eat like shit soo
please do a research and go to psychotherapy.. it's due to anxiety...
Lucky you! I have severe pain and diarrhea for at least 3 days. Then my GERD kicks in and I start vomitting. Feel better when I don't eat but then get weak and lightheaded. You are very lucky to have mild symptoms.

Sugar is a big thing too... It draws in water which is even worse for someone with IBS-D
It also often feeds the bad bugs that are often an underlying cause.
I get the mucus side of things I don’t get pain but every few months I’ll have weeks of passing mucus before stools sometimes on it’s own. It ruins my life for them few weeks. Can’t trust a fart and you end up convinced it’s something sinister, I’ve had over 60 tests over the past few yrs including sigmoidoscopy and bloods, various shit tests and they haven’t found anything…. But me being me I still think they missed something 😢. Loves to everyone who suffers from this. It’s horrible not trusting your own body.
The endocannabinoid system is involved as well, which explains why medical cannabis helps with IBS in early studies. The idea is that if we are born with deficiencies in inflammation control and few endocannabinoid receptors, then the body needs more to come from plant based sources like cannabis. The digestive system itself is full of pain relieving, anti inflammation receptors that match with cannabis.
There might be some truth to it. Coincidence or not, I started to have IBS after practicing the Wim Hof breathing method, which is claimed to trigger the endocannabinoid system.
@@andre.1984 I thought wim hof method is a positive for your nervous system
@@nickpaine2767 Alleged research seems to point to that.
@@andre.1984 so how can mediation give you ibs?
@@nickpaine2767 The WH breathing technique is not a meditation, it's an exercise that acts directly on the nervous system. It's an intense breathing exercise. Meditation is about observation without interference, where you remove yourself from your thoughts in a relaxed state. You don't interfere with your breath, you just watch it's ebbs and flows.

Im suffering from this for about 15 years now. Most of the time, constipation.
Feels like hell, esp the pain on the head that is mentioned in this video.
That pain feels like a vertigo. That will lead to acid reflux. After the nauseous feeling that will lead to vomiting, since I was constipated, now the diarrhea begins.
All of the pain will be gone after I emptied my stomach via vomiting and diarrhea.
That cycle happens for 6-12 hours.
I been dealing with ibs symptoms since I was 14 and I'm now 23😓
Oof, what are you doing to try and make it better?

@@zeusstrikes6908 What are you doing to manage your symptoms, Zeus Strikes?
@@ConfluenceNutrition well I've changed up my diet I exercise and I take tums for antacids to calm down the the acidity in my stomach it actually helps pass gas too also stool softeners help or magnesium citrate if you backed up I still get days where I get in pain but not as much like that
@@zeusstrikes6908 I have same symptoms with you, how are you now? I want to connect with you.
Thanks
I think, my anxiety and depression might play the role for this, I've having this pain every months, since the time when I diagnosed with anxiety and depression.
I think stress exam trigger ins in my body I fell little little pain and uncomfort in right side of abdomen clinical test are fine
Do you guys have abdominal pain all the time?
Can it be caused by the herniated disk or sciatica?
Sciatica was bad before ribs showed up
FOR PEOPLE WONDERING! ANXIETY AND ANXIETY ALONE CAUSES THIS!
Its the truth. Or you may also say fear and the fear of the fear
What about trauma and CPTSD?
I thought I had fatty liver and was extremely anxious…but it was just inflammation which then triggered symptoms of IBS
They say may be due to stress. Am restless cos of this ibs and it’s even more stressful. Am going mad really
Watching at 4 am with ibs
My whole life i had constipation same with all my family members, they can't go a day without taking senna powder to help with bowl movement, me on the other hand i started taking anti diarrhea medication so i don't have to go to the bathroom 6 times a day
ibs is the worst nightmare u can ever have 😥
It truly is :'(
It's a form of slow death mate 😢😢
I developed IBS last year and stress makes it hurt so much and I dont know why but the pain hasnt stopped for over a week now and I cant take this much more, its so painful that Im going crazy
What are you doing to try and improve it?
@@ConfluenceNutrition I started taking some meds and the pain started to fade somewhat, it still hurts sometimes but its better
I'm glad you're feeling better! If and when you're interested in trying to address it with natural approaches like diet and supplements, I can help...
@@ConfluenceNutrition well I think everyone's diet journal is different you know but I am interested in how you dealwithyours
@@zeusstrikes6908 indeed, we are all different, and need a customized approach! Here's a video I made about using a food-symptom journal to help identify your food triggers: ua-cam.com/video/jXqid6ik_5g/v-deo.html
Is there a remedy?

I'm also suffering from IBS but in our country there's no proper treatment so how to protect from this disorderness?? And what's their proper treatment??🥺🥺
Bro as a Pakistani, i understand your situation, Heres my story
I started having stomach pains and constipation almost 2 years ago when i was 15. For the first week we thought it might be appendix so i got a ultrasound sound done its results were perfect. I just had constipation for 4 days a week for next 2 months. Then i got a ultrasound again but still it was perfect. I started searching about my symptoms and figured that i have all the symptoms of IBS. Then i started focusing on what foods cause me those symptoms. I I found out that Milk related stuff were also causing flare ups. After assessing what causes me pain, i stopped eating pizza, cheese, brocolli, ice cream, lays chips, fries, chocolate, yogurt and stopped drinking milk and sweet beverages. I have not eaten these things for 2 years and I'm much better. Still the only reason i get flare ups is when i stress. My doctor suggested me ciprofloxacin, it works really well and taking only 1 tablet makes me good again. But i read about the side effects of ciprofloxacin and limited taking it to when my condition is really bad. Alhamdulilah I'm now able to control my ibs symptoms without any medicine. Also look up anti-inflammatory foods and fruits and eat them when you have symptoms.
Am in so much pain 20mins after eating the pain escalates am even afraid of eating
I been diagnosed with this as I been having diarrhea for about 3 years now. Along with diarrhea I also have an unbearable pain in my stomach, it's so bad and my stomach always hurts is that a normal part of IBS? I'm starting to think the pain and discomfort in my stomach is a separate issue from the ibs
The stomach issue might actually be Reflux disease. I have both a tough IBS-M case and Reflux disease. Omeprazol has alleviated the unbearable stomach symptoms a lot but to this day, I haven't found anything that has helped me with my IBS. The most recent doctor I went to, after another therapy that led to nothing, basically told me that for cases like mine, that have tried pretty much everything to no avail, a diet called FODmaps is the only possible solution..😞
Courage to everyone suffering from this awful disease!💓
You could try probiotics, if you haven't tried them. They've relieved a lot of my symptoms.
@@Michelle_Void Hey thanks for your great response sorry I didn't catch it on time! When my IBS started I did have terrible stomach discomfort, but sometime around last year it's gotten really bad it's always hurting all day and there's also cramping involved I feel something being tugged in there like a spasm.
The diarrhea was horrible I was going to the bathroom 6 or more times daily and the diarrhea drugs I bought didn't work. I went to a doctor and he recommended Immodium for the diarrhea it's over the counter and thankfully it worked to alleviate the diarrhea but it's a temporary fix. I went to a G.I doctor they performed a colonoscopy on me and found nothing, I got frustrated. Here I am with non stop diarrhea and stomach pain and they're telling me they found nothing. Shortly after they diagnosed me with IBS-D I believe forgot which type but certainly IBS was their diagnosis.
After the diagnosis they prescribed me a drug called dicyclomine which is a common drug they use to treat IBS. The drug didn't help I'm 6 foot 2, 240 pounds they felt cuz I'm a bigger person I may need a bigger dose so they doubled the dose and had me take 4 daily and it helps a little bit with the diarrhea but not enough and it doesn't help with my stomach pain at all which now has become a much bigger problem than the diarrhea. The diarrhea got better I could deal with it right now but it's that dam stomach pain that's killing me.
Along with the drug they prescribed me they also told me to go on that FODMAP diet at the same time I was taking the drug until I start getting better. It's not an easy diet to follow. 3 years and still dealing with this crap 🙄 wish you good luck.
@@tapiwamutiracha9675 I have been trying them for the past month unfortunately haven't seen any improvement for my symptoms but I'm still taking them.
Hi there, stomach pain( feel like period cramps) is one of the biggest and horrible problem that happens when you're suffering from IBS, ask me, I feel like I'm dying daily and today it's been over 4 days I've slept peacefully as I'm still up coping with this stomach ache. It nothing less than death !
Worst pain any human can go through,it's unbearable when it happens
My weight has come to stand still due to this probably and my social life is Fucked up coz of this ,I have no friends and avoid people, scary part is I am 27 and live in India
I will pray for you bud.
I was diagnosed with IBS years ago. I learned eating fast and not chewing a few times also irritates your bowel movements . Because your sending large amount of food for the bowl system to digest. Additionally, i cut back on snacks for only two days and don't go overboard. So if i have candy or chips I'll drink my 2.5 liter water bottle . Obviously you know your body. This works for me.
Is it really not curable?
I have this problem

Anything about amount of bowel movements? I dont have pain but I poop 8 or 9 times every single day, literally. And affects my sleep every day, i can never sleep more than 7 hours cause I have to poop
Have you done any tests?
Try to eat fiber
I face different textures of stool different color daily never ever have healthy stools and often go to toiled 4-6 times daily and 12-14 times on hard days. Often get piles whenever i eat non veg for two days in a line . It sucks . When I go to toilet sometime I only pass gas and very little feaces
Is SSRI proper treatment for IBS?
Yes
I need to ask everyone if this is what it sounds like I have. So most of my whole life. I never ate much. I ate u til I was full. And I never even drank many sugary drinks. But when I eat. My stomach turns and bloats and aches. And then I have to go to the bathroom immediately. With extremely bad diarrhea. But then after I am hungry again. The only thing that doesn’t make me go through this is when I eat fruits and vegetables when I went hardcore diet mode when I was younger. But what do you people think I have? It’s depressing I put on so much weight. I have to be completely moving 8 hours a day and barely eat to lose weight. It’s just so frustrating
i hate ibs i rather die in my sleep and never wake up than to keep fighting the depression and IBS symtoms. its painfull and i dont like to live with constant Constipation, or Diarrhea. its either one or the other and few occasions where stool is normal but moslty its either diarrea or constipation. i already suffered from Hemmorhoids last year after a long week of constipation. this night i got diarrea back again and it sucks. Constipation is not fun but at least you dont have to go every five minutes. i'm on the point of giving up and taking my life, but i going to doktor tommorow en hopefully they can help me.
fuck my life.
@@Alvarez-Shaw now my diarrhea is over and feeling much better but i havent gone to the toilet since my diarrea was over so i not pooped a single thing. the only thing that comes out is a little windy, thats all. and i feel i sometimes need but i'm afraid of pushing since i am afraid of again getting hemorrhoids like last year so if there comes nothing out i just give up. its good my diarrea is gone but now i feel and think its now constipation wich also is not a good thing. the doctors said i need a dieetjournal before getting my blood tested so thats what i need tot do first. and yes, depression is pretty horrible also with me. i also suffer from a lot of stress and anxiety and get constant panic attacks. i have fear of vomiting (worst phobia ever) and cant think straight when i eat because i feel like if i eat something weird combination i might puke. and next couple of days i eaten too much and now i'm scared to get some stomach issues or more constipation or back with diarrea. bathroom anxiety is very big with me and especially also with thoughts of beeing nauseous (i have fear of vomiting like i said but also fear the nausia part because it feels like dying and its scary). i vomited last time since 2017 probably ate something bad or a 24 hour bug and i had heartpalpitations and super panic attack and hadnt slept for the night, stayed awake in the early morning (6 am) untill i slept that day. since that day i suffer from false sickness or the fear of combination of foods even if i do get to eat more in weird combinations, but those are the worst days since then i think more about how i feel afterwards. but back to my IBS, now its problably Constipation again, and had'nt tried (afraid of Hemorrhoids, wich are very painfull) to poop. if i feel like it i try but it wont come out. i feel hopeless. i want a normal life. i have a psychiatrist to later explain everything.
also, yes, as a Hypochondriac (i know i'm hypochondriac for instance one small sensation in my belly or stomach is like a serieus sickness to me.. one time i had ate too much and had stomach pain and thought it was Ulcer but it was just nothing) and so thinking of Bowel cancer (or Colon cancer?) is something i do alot when having diarrea and also last years with the hemorrhoids that i thought it made be cancer (because of the blood)
living with health anxiety and nausea fear and Emotophobia is like living in hell and thats why i hate my life and want to be over with.
i'm just glad i'm not the only one suffering from this.
Have you tried seeking help from a psychiatrist? That's what will help you. Pleased talk to the doctor about this medicine called Mirtazipine. It's called Remeron. It's an anti depressant which also helps with IBS.
have you tried giving nerva a try? its an app and it has helped me diminish my symptoms a bit
@@netabolt6546 how you doing now?

I got this after Covid in 2020 my first symptoms were diarrhea but it never went away
Do you still have it?
yes i have not been the same since
Ibs D sucks mostly, but man oh man that moment of explosive relief is something I'm grateful for. Running or jogging into public restroom only to explode the room with what can only be described as the noxious stench of hell's flames, that's a moment gastrointestinal normative people never experience, the pleasure is almost divine.
Here I am day 4 on the toilet with ibs pains
You have also stomach pain daily?
Do you always have abdominal pain? Like all the time?
@@JuanCentimo Do you always have abdominal pain? Like all the time?

Y’all I have this shit🤣 don’t be so hard on yourself’s you’ll be okay.
I get you but not everyone can handle things like this the same it's mentally and physically draining
And do not laugh it's not easy to live with this condition
Some foods trigger mine. Had some last night so here I am round 3 on the toilet
I USE BIO FREEZE on my belly specifically on areas where I feel bloating to counter my symptoms completely
I have IBS-C Been suffering with this cancer since Covid
Once my symptoms are finally gone I am finally me again.
I don’t know if this will work for the other variants of this condition but it worked for me.

its been months i dont know whats wrong with my intestines or stomach in general!!!
i just had diarrhea today in school . i have to use the restroom before my sixth period class or my stomach will make fart noises and i'll have pain in my solar plexus. I HATE THIS.
Samme its soo embarrassing , i feel like a lot of gas is moving inside me which is really incomfortable and cause a looot of stomach sounds , it gets worse when i get nervous (which happen because i get nervous a lot in university )
@@aryam4069omg same. literally it started 5 months ago. one time i was nervous to go into french class bc the seating plan had changed. and then when i got in and sat down i got a build up of gas in my stomach, and obviously i didnt want to let it out bc i was in the middle of a quiet class. and thats when the stomach noises started happening. my life has been hell ever since. its started flaring up in other lessons as well now, and now it is in all of my lessons. i honestly hate it. it is ruining my life. hopefully ill be able to cure it. im trying peppermint capsules at the moment but idk if they're working.
Anxiety do affect IBS but it is not the source and the reason !
For me it was. Just the fears of getting it. It made me more nervous
