I have irritable bowel syndrome.?


I've suffered with bloating,gas,constipation,diar... the feeling that I have to go BM again, even when I've just gone,and mucous in my poop. I hate going into public anymore because I need to make a few trips to the bathroom, most of the time I feel like I have to go, but then nothing. It's embarrasing because my boyfriend picks on me. He alsmost hates going in public with me as much as I do. So my question is,,,would a good bowel cleansing help with the symptoms and what do I use. Is it safe to cleanse your bowels?

It is not really necessary to have a "bowel cleansing." I had IBS as a child and know exactly all the problems your are talking about. You need to increase the amount of fiber in your diet. My doctor placed me on Citrucel powder and I took it three times a day before my meals. Try this and see what happens. You may also need to remove caffeine from your diet. My doctor placed me on strictly water to drink. Also make sure you are not taking NSAIDs (ibuprofen, aleve, etc.). If you have frequent diarrhea, you also need to make sure that you are staying hydrated well.
Sure, an enema might just be what you need before going out. I imagine you have seen a doctor and the treatments haven't helped so maybe you should try another doctor...they all have different ideas and know different tricks. Best wishes
You should try Fleet Phospho soda.

You can get it at Walgreens. Tastes nasty though. I would recommend taking it with Gatorade instead of water.

I have collitus (not sure if spelled correctly), and the Phospho-soda stuff really cleans you out.

Hope this helps, even if it is gross.

It is safe to discuss this with your doctor.

By the way: Your boyfriend is a jerk.
Be very careful, you don't want to set yourself over the top and irritate yourself to the point where you dehydrate and end up in the hospital. Try changing your diet-no spices, no citric acid, no red sacues, no pizza.
Please see a Gastrointestinal Dr. Please don't accept medical advice from anyone but a professional. It can be DEADLY!!! Good luck;)
