IBS Sickness

[CSmidge]

Im currently suffering dizzy spells which i know is linked to my IBS as my stomach doesnt feel right my stools are horrible and i have bad gas.

Does anybody else have these episodes and how do you treat yours?

Ive cut out all my intolerances but still suffering

Hi CS, would some over the counter pills -- such as GasX... or other brand name pills made up of simethicone help you? Phazyme helps me.

Do have IBS-d or c? I'm not clear. I have IBS-c, but in years past have had both. I'll tell you what I do. I take the oral probiotic VSL#3. It's available on Amazon. I also eat Activia yogurt every day. I try to eat fresh fruits and vegetables to get enough fiber every day. If those don't work, I resort to a glycerin suppository. I don't like to do that, but I will. For the gas, I take lots of Simethicone, an OTC med that breaks down large gas bubbles into smaller ones that you can expel easier. That's my plan and it works pretty well. You have figured out to avoid foods you don't tolerate. Good luck, Nesie 237
