IBS only in the morning?

[Consider]

Do any of you have this problem? I wake up at 6am to go to the bathroom and I am nauseous before and after I poop. :( it hurts a lot! Help!

Do you eat or drink anything specific in the evenings that could act as a trigger?

[Consider]

Not sure, though.

Last night, I ate some pizza and had some soda. A sandwich and a bit of fries. I never had IBS though until I got anxiety. But why in the morning?

Its very common for IBS to be worse in the mornings (mine is!) I read that its because your digestive system is at its most active then and the stress hormone (think its cortisol) is also very high first thing in the morning.

I woke today at 5am with a horrible burning sensation in my stomach but I was real bad with my diet yesterday (ate loads of chocolate and mini sausages for lunch:huh:)

Yep, mine is always first thing in the morning , it used to be worse if I was anxious & I would go about 5 times before leaving the house... I have just figured out that oranges my favourite fruit makes my IBS really bad... :-(
