I've tried, IBgard, peppermrnt oil capsules, fiber, Tennel capsules, and Tea. don't eat red meat, mostly ciicken, fish, lots of salads and everything baked nothing fryed nothing spicy. It mainly hits me at night with the feeling of bloated, stomach pain, which make it hard to get a good night sleep. Exercise seam too help a little.
Yes I feel the same way but I have too watch what I eat all the time and still have flare ups, I started drinking warm ginger tea with lemon at night. still I wake up with stomach pain, I will be so glad when a cure come up for the problem.
Has your Dr said if you have internal hemorrhoids? That can cause a lot of rectal problems. Cortisone suppositories would help also. If you are not currently seeing gastroenterologist I would urge you to get appointment with one.<br><br><br>
<p>I would like to know if anyone experiences IBS like I do. I either go or don't go to the bathroom. When I do, it usually feels incomplete. Once I start walking around, I often feel the urge to go again. It feels like there's a huge ball pressing down in my rectal area, like pressure, like my rectum is "open". My doctor has me on daily Benefiber to soften stools. I often take Tylenol for pain relief in hopes of shrinking my tissues. Does anyone have any ideas on how to rid myself of this?</p>

So much I don't know...or don't understand about IBS. I am grateful for all the information I can get. My stomach feels sore/achy for long periods of time and then suddenly, just gets better and goes away. Sometimes I can go for months where I can eat just about any type of food I want with no problem, and then - suddenly it changes and I have to be so careful about every little. I am always searching for advice and answers! Thank you.

Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction. I certainly still need to keep reading about this feeling of not eliminating and pain associated with it.

I'm glad @keysgull already responded and with the exact question I would have asked!

@keysgull and @flip1949 I'm wondering if you might have some thoughts for new member @clemlaa who started this new discussion

Thanks. Yes, I have hemmorhoids, which make it worse. I did not know about the cortizone suppositories. My doctor never said anything about that.
