Bowel movement changes

Does anyone feel their stool appearance/size/ varies all the time?

Different consistency, sometimes it's more mushy then the next day it's log shaped.

Have you experienced this?

Yes I experience this a lot. Sometimes they are log-shaped, sometimes they are mushy and sometimes they are pebble shaped. I also wondered if I was the only one with IBS to experience this as it's quite normal for me. Never the same.

Thank you for sharing. You're definitely not alone.

Has your doctor confirmed it's IBS? Have you had a colonoscopy?

I personally think that's normal for most people to be honest depending on what you've been eating.

Very, very rarely log shaped just generally unpredictable, been like that all my life. Had a colonoscopy 8 yrs ago and scan 3 years ago. Nothing to report.

My changes are more recent and I believe due to stressful events
