Hi everyone I was just at the gym and it seriously felt like I was having a heart attack. I stopped for a couple of minutes cause I panicked and realized I had spasms in my stomach. It should take the whole night on peppermint tea and me trying to relax. I hate it when I can not control my emotions and panic immediately, i ve had IBS for 14 years now I should have known.

Do you take anything for anxiety? My anxiety and my IBS definitely go hand in hand. I take Xanax daily which definitely helps.

Oh bless you. It’s the same for me. I’ve lived with IBS for longer than I can remember. And it immediately makes me panic...one little twinge and I’m already in a panic. So sorry for you and I hope you’re feeling a bit better xxx
