Abdominal pain with gas, bloating and foul body odor

[Lsgv100]

I have all the ibs symptoms and this is not from the food and flares up when I am under stress. It doesn't matter what food I take, although I am very careful what I eat. Along with that, I have slight rectal pain possibly because of constant passing of gas . Body odor is very strong (leaky gas) and gets difficult to meet people and go out.

I had colonoscopy, SIBO tests, endoscopy, been on various anti-depressants, but nothing worked.

Anyone has these symptoms? Any ideas what to test. I am consulting new GI and undergoing new tests. Blood work came out good, stool test waiting for result.

My rectal pain is not severe..it is very mild as if due to passing out gas. I don't have it when I don't have abdominal pain. Which doctor checks anal related issues? colorectal surgeons?

[Rice333 in reply to Lsgv100]

Colorectal , yes thats right going by what you have said I'd say its a no for proctalgia fugax. And BELEIEVE me you don't want it .

Good luck and hope you sort your problem out .

How do you know that balance problems are related to IBS. You might want to discuss this with your doctor, and also consult with an ear, nose and throat specialist about the balance problems. Sorry, somehow this got in the wrong place.

Sorry, I didn't get..What balance problems? I have abdominal pain and leaky gas. What does that I have to do with ENT?

I have never tried these but I know that you can find odour modifying adult nappies on the internet. I had a friend who had to use them otherwise her husband would not let her in the car with him. She said they worked and so did her husband. I think intestinal flatulence is the bane of all our lives. You are not alone. I’m sure even the pope gets it. Don’t let it get you down. Con amore Bx
