I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this before and if this is something that is not IBD related.

Sometimes when I "go" the urge is so great I feel like there is something there when in fact it is "empty." It will get to the point where I feel like I have spasms I cannot control and it will not stop--it is a lot like having dry heaves, only down there.

Anyhow can anyone relate? And is this something that happens to everyone, even if they do not have IBD?

Thanks!

Sounds like what you're describing is incomplete evacuation...this can happen when dealing with proctitis (inflammation of the rectom from either crohns or ulcerative colitis), the same feeling can also happen with IBS as well, so you may want to talk to your GI, maybe have him scope you to see if there's any inflammation, if so then he should give you rectal meds...one that works best for me is called cortifoam.
