Please don't give up hope....alas IBS is a constant frustrating battle. Have you been referred to the Colorectal clinic or IBS dietitian? May find them helpful... wishing you better....🙏🏼

I do feel for you. I was bloated up like in your photo every day, so I really know how bad that feels. Like you've swallowed a cow.

To give you some hope, I had IBS for years, and have totally recovered. You might find something useful on my SickofIBS blog.

Life is ashit - but we carry on. 76 and unhappy- but my family are ok. still no help - nobody truly understands - DO THEY?

I think someone needs to have had IBS themselves to even start to understand.

Tried them ok but not the answer. Just part of wish to feel better - as if ?
