IBS cramps keeping me awake

[Jonquil]

Hi there,

Has any body got any suggestions for dealing with cramps from IBS as they are stopping me form sleeping so well. Take audmonal for my IBS and citalorpam for anxiety. The two together seemed to be working well but am stating to get recurrance of cramps- any natural non chemical suggestions would be especially welcome! Thanks J x

I know it might sound silly but try a hot water bottle on your tom (not too hot) and has helped me when I've had a stomach ache. Or maybe try sleeping in the fetal position with your knees pushed up to your tum.

Yes, hot water bottle is a great comfort but not quite doing the trick at the moment. will try fetal position also. thanks. Jx
