I seem to have developed another symptom of my IBS. I get the feeling as though my gutts are bubbling (well around that area) its a horrible feeling!

Does anyone else get this?

Yeh i used to get this but i find digestive enzyme, probiotics and peppermint oil capsules half hour before i eat has sorted this problem

I like peppermint! I hate the feeling though. Thanks for reply

Yes mainly after eating. But agree with using probiotics and digestive enzyme. Have you checked you don't have SIBO, candida, parasites or low stomach acid? These can all cause IBS symptoms. X

Yes i had candida quite badly but with cutting out sugar and yeast for 8 weeks i got rid of it! Also with dida tablets and probiotics,digestive enzymes and peppermint oil it helps with ibs .

I just ate my dinner and it started first time in 6 months the gurgling and bubbling buti drank a peppermint tea and it calmed down

I think I may have candida as always worse after too much sugar. Last time I was at gp I mentioned SIBO and Candida but they were not interested and said we don't really test for that! I've just ordered a test through a private company for candida will wait to see on results before I look into SIBO. This is the website candidatest.co.uk/ x

Yeh it pretty easy to get rid of u have to give up all yeast ,sugar and sweet stuff even fruit and just live on veg and chicken it very boring but mine was gone in 8 weeks... i was glad i done it as it made me feel So

Much better and it got rid of my bad sugar habit.

I did also have to take tablets that killed the candida yeast called β€œ dida” from holland and barrat and i took probiotics, digestive enzymes to put the good gut bacteria in.

Oregano, cinnamon, peppermint, tumeric, garlic they all kill candid to

Im dairy intolerant so alot of my food is sugar based. Yeast is a nightmare to cut out im also intolerant to that :( i love cinnamon and peppermint. I shall start back on my peppermint teas. Apart from the bubbling sensation my ibs seems calm (for a change)

Thanks for advice

You need to talk to your doctor about a condition called Dysbiosis. Bad bacteria can make food ferment in your gut, you need a diet of no carbs, garlic tablets daily and probiotics and enzyme tablets.

I havent no but due a visit to the docs as my mood has dropped recently and feeling tired

Dr cannot diagnose candida i dont think ? I think they can sibo not sure.

My mood was sooo low and my ibs had got so much worse that how i knew something else was up.

Also i had a big course of antibiotics just before i got worse which is a sign of candida

Doctors won’t test for Candida but they do have an anti yeast medication.

Lulububs profile image
Lulububsβ€’ in reply toA_IBS

Yeh unfortunately the medication is just a anti yeast fungus tablet whereas u need to deal with the problem.

U have to starve candida of yeast, sugar and carbs for 8 weeks and u will kill it

Oh I see. I was told that I had Candida but not that high levels. So did the anti Candida diet for about 7/8 months and actually got worse πŸ™ˆ I was also taking all the supplements, digestive enzymes and probiotics. Cost a fortune. So I’m wondering if it’s SIBO or food intolerances instead.

Im intolerant to milk. Recently been on holiday and had loads of milk based foods. Explains why i feel so crappy :(

Lulububs profile image
Lulububsβ€’ in reply toA_IBS

Oh no gutted for u that it got worse, i pretty much noticed difference im me within about 4 days with candida diet but i had it severely.

I dont know what sibo is im afraid so cant help u with that one..

Intolerances are awful, lucky i know mine so i steer well clear.. gluten and cows milk... if i eat anything with that in it im a goner for days the pain in gut just lays me out

CSmidge profile image
CSmidgeβ€’ in reply toLulububs

Can you have goats milk etc? My intolerance is cows milk but been told to avoid all milk

Lulububs profile image
Lulububsβ€’ in reply toCSmidge

Yeh im same i just decided to avoid all dairy as i dont have much so it didnt make much difference to me i read up on it and decided to go plant based as it has alot of plus sides to it.. so i only chnage me butter and milk to soya... and i go to the free from bit in supermarkets and make sure it just says dairy or milk free.

I've noticed now this bubbling feeling happens with or without eating. It bubbked for around 2mins lastnight and i had everybody feeling it. Right in my left lower abdol in line with my pubic bone

NHS can and do test for SIBO but you need a good gp/consultant to refer you. Be insistent. I had the test done but had to fight for it. With regard to other tests (candida etc) I would suggest going through a qualified nutritional therapist rather than DIY kits, as you really need professional advice in treating these things. I've had terrible side effects from treatment for candida and parasites and would have been lost without my therapist.

I see a therapist ( food allergy nutrionalist) he very good he was one that got it straight away and said u got candida( u could see it in my poo) tmi... lol

He said these medications do not kill it they just get it under control whilst ur on it then bang as soon as u stop it regrows whereas u actually need to kill it and u will know as it come out in ur poo!!!

Its awful...

I was told to have no sugar, no yeast no carbs no fruit for 8 weeks! I literally lived on broth, crackers, rice and chicken spinach.... it hard... as im a sugar freak i had headache for 3 days but once i got into it i was determined as i saw benefits within 4 days. My stomach pain was goin, my brain fog, my eczma , everything was just coming to life... i took probiotics, digestive enzyme, peppermint cap and dida tablets, 3 tines a day for 2 months and when i went back 8 weeks later NO CANDIDA!! I still stick to low sugar, not much carbs, no fizz, low alcohol. All me supplements but just once a day!! And healthy food. I also gluten intolerant
