You need to go get this checked by a doctor even just to put your mind at ease. You will drive yourself mad with worry if you don't.

Make an appointment asap.

Hi Emma, I agree with the reply by Hidden below in that you should go to your GP. There are many factors as to why IBS can start and a couple are food poisoning and stress and anxiety. Go to your GP, let him or her know what symptoms you have and they should carry out some tests on you i.e. I had a Colonoscopy and Endoscopy before I was diagnosed.

Very best of luck to you.
