Hi. Quick question, Does anyone else suffer catarrh along with their IBS. I had never been one to suffer with this before but since a flare up of IBS c,I seem to have it constantly. I have mentioned it to doc but he doesn't seem too bothered tbh.

I to suffer coughs and colds had it since Oct 2012 on and off Cray shows I'm OK taking asthma meds just now :(

Yes I have constant catarrh and runny nose although have no sign of a cold. Can't see the connection either but nothing I do seems to resolve it.

Yes, with me it is sinus problems and earache especially over night. I get vertigo overnight too, when I lie down the fluid seems to move in my sinus and ears, then I feel pressure in my ears and I get very dizzy. I have been diagnosed with benign positional vertigo.

I've always got sinus problems, it must go hand in hand for some people, my head is always muzzy, and people think I've got a cold, which I haven't, just another little monster that goes with having IBS, I wish you well
