Hey! I too took refrigerated acidophilus before I started taking two digeste advantages a day, so I figured I might as well stop taking the refrigerated kind. Anyway, we called the dude at the...
Thanks guys! :) My mom wont take me to a doctor, she says if it happens again she will but shes sure its just a fleeting thing. Whatever *rolls eyes*. Thanks for all the advice and I'm sure I'll be...
Hey everyone! Im usually over at the IBS forum, but I have a quick question. I get like, mini-migraines that are extremely painful (light sensitivity, nauseous, sides of my head, etc.) but they only...
Okayy so im really dumb. Listen to this. So today was my best friends sweet 16 party, and we went out for a nice Italian dinner. I order this pasta dish with chicken and broccoli, and it usually...
I agree with you. The only thing that doesnt make sense with my gallbladder is that it never hurts, and sometimes certain foods set it off, and sometimes it doesnt. But high fat/high sugar foods...
Yeah I have the gross yellow stuff that both the pediatrician and GI doc dismissed as nothing. It felt wonderful to be treated like I was dumb. haha yeah! I was like hungry...took a few bites and...
Hey everyone! So I've been having a weird couple of days. On Friday, I felt kinda nauseated and had some bad D a few times all day. But then it got a little better as the night went on. Saturday was...
Antibiotics do a NUMBER ON ME! whew I get so torn up when I have to take them. (almost 1,000 mg of amoxicillin twice a day for a massive sinus infection is NOT good for an IBS-er, at all. haha) I...

Hey everyone! My friend who also happens to have IBS (but doesnt have an account on here ) wanted me to ask you guys if alcohol made you blow up like a balloon and have painful gas, or gave you...
Sooo I went to my gastro doc about a week ago (I havent been online in a LONG time haha) and he just basically did the typical "you have IBS deal with it and take this expensive stool sample so you...
Im taking Digestive Advantage..but it hasnt bothered me yet...hmmm.....
I havent heard of pomegranate juice being good for IBS-D...if it is, thats awesome because i LOVE it! haha but its really really expensive....
Yeah it sounds like your body just responds to the stress of a panic attack through your intestines. Breathing techniques really just means taking cleansing breaths to help calm yourself down. Theres...
I'm exactly the same as you, roadtrip. I rarely get random cramping, its always before an episode. My stomach is always in knots. It feels like its eating itself haha...
hey kariokey. First of all, I know how you feel. I have suffered from severe anxiety and phobia related panic attacks. Mine are usually triggered by things tho, mine were not random. I have learned...
I have 1.5-2 hours of volleyball two to three times a week, plus all weekend tournaments on some weekends (10 hours of straight volleyball) and then weightlifting in school 2 or 3 times a week. On...

I have had an EGD and a breath test, because I had horrible acid reflux. (I had minor stomach irritation, and no H.Pylori like they thought,so they put me on Nexium and cured it. Nexium is the...
Mine has been SUPER weird lately...so i come home from school, and after I eat my snack, its miraculous. I have a NORMAL bowel movement! But then, immediatly after/during dinner, I get those awful...
Yeah I'm pretty sure my gall bladders gone haywire...with it being very prominant in my family and all the bile crap. Ive never really had a bonafied "attack" just bouts of the icky yellow poop....
Luckily, I'm not pooping out food...im pooping out yellowish, itty bitty little chunks. in nasty water. gross. sometimes my D is so yellow it looks like bright lemonade, or urine. Bleh! I am a little...
I have a question. After I eat, (doesnt matter what meal, my intestines randomly pick. sometimes its breakfast or lunch or snack or dinner. ) I get really really bad gassy cramps, the kind that feel...
you can have referred pain in your back while you have cramps. You can also have gas anywhere in your body. (i've had it in my chest!) Try a heating pad on your back to help relax some of the muscles...
That sounds like my acid reflux! Do you get a sort of gnawing pain underneath your breastbone, and its the feeling like you kinda need to eat but you dont want to because you already feel nauseated!!...
Orange juice has never bothered me in the past, but im not a big sausage eater so that may be what did me in. Crystal Light actually has aspartame in it, which I'm guessing also contributed. Sorbitol...
Okay..is it possible to have random bile D? Or is it always triggered by a food? Because I had a normal bowel movement (NORMAL, did you hear that?! It was amazing!) and then after eating dinner, I...
I meant to say whole grain but it came out whole wheat..haha! Yeah...i'd really rather not eat the nasty FiberOne but my mom is adamant about me eating it..thinks its gonna miraculously heal me....
I have a quick question...I just started eating this special fiber cereal (FiberOne..its digusting but hopefully it'll help with my D) and today, I've had like nasty green poop. Like, this color...
Haha my feet are good for the most part...cept my foot "problems" arent related to IBS. I wear a size 14 in womens shoes...so thats difficult haha and i have horrible calluses from volleyball. but i...
Hey..I just wanted to know if this is normal for IBS. I was at an out of town volleyball tournament in downtown Atlanta, where most of my meals were McDonalds on the run, or low vegetable and high...
Yeah..the only thing with me is like, I've only had like two "attacks" where I've had bile D like 5 times in a row...with chills and shakes and stuff. Right now, Im putting myself basically on a...
I think that would be a WONDERFUL idea!!! You're right..GI docs I think view us as another source of income for them, not as people who have problems. Your post on gallbladder issues have really...
Hey everyone! Okay. I am torn. I am gonna see what you guys think about my little situation. I'll list my symptoms, and I'd just like to know what you guys think is wrong with me...gallbladdder...
