I know anxiety has many symptoms . I have anxiety and I also had INS. I think anxiety came first . Anyway i suffered with IBs, for about 5 years. when I left my job of 25 years due to an injury. my IBS left. I still have anxiety though . try to get rid of things that stress you out. Take care

Yes. When I get stressed that can happen. I agree with marsbarr. Just try to do things that help you relax and eliminate stressors from your life.

Yes! Totally. I have started taking a daily probiotic, which has helped tremendously.

Hello Curtis33

Yes Ibs is linked its affects the nervous system so there's no surprise really. I suffer often with Ibs especially in more stressful or leading up to a difficult situation. I try to drink lots of water and a bit excercise helps but depends how bad. Your not alone.

Take care and hope you feel better soon.
