Coffee has to be the worst irritant for an attack for me which is a problem as i love to have gallons of the stuff all day.

If anyone suffers IBS and has unexpected bouts of Diahorria, keep some powdered arrowroot in the house. When you get an attack, mix a few teaspoons into some warm milk and this will bind you up again very quickly. It also works miracles and is safe to use on cats, kittens, dogs and puppie's.

Stress could be a big part of it...I have lots of stress. Another reason could be I have fibroids in my uterus which has caused my uterus to grow to twice it's size...I'm thinking this could have something to do with it. The doc told me when I get the fibroids out my uterus should go back to normal size...I think this may have something to do with the constipation and am hoping this will help.

A few months ago, I had a very strong burning sensation when I peed. This happened for quite a few days. The pain was so bad that I screamed when I peed. To make things worse, I had to pee every 30 minutes or so ( this never happened to me before) . I found out later it was due to stress from a very heavy workload .

Another time ( long, long ago) , instead of bowel movements, I would have lots of blood coming out of me when I went to the toilet. That was also caused by stress ( at that time, I had a very bad boss who had a bad family life and took it out on me at work. )

Hopefully you don't have these problems again hun. It's amazing what stress can cause physically.
