It is according to the form of your stool, Damithcol. Hard stools to pass with horrible cramping is my Ibs-C. I alternate between C & D but most C. The loose & watery stools with cramping is Ibs-D and they both consist with excessive gas. The ibs-C is more painful for me because my colon is in spasms with trapped gas and it stimulates the vagus nerve, which causes extreme temperature rise (sweating horrible and after bowel movement chilling) nausea, and extreme fatigue before and after. It's a horrible disease or malfunction of the digestive tract to have to li ve with and I wouldn't wish it on anyone! Hope this helps.

I agree, my daughter suffers with IBS-C. It seems so unfair but ... She's had periods of relief, but is currently having major problems. A probiotic, xanax, and magnesium supplements. She uses the FODMAP for her diet instructions. When she was exercising routinely, her symptoms decreased. She has been on an antibiotic, steroid pack, Diflucan. She drinks ginger teas to help with indigestion and gas. When the gas is bad, she takes GAs x. Her IBS gets worse during her cycles. We are presently contemplating birth control. I hope that this has been somewhat helpful. Definitely, look into a probiotic(VSL 3).
