Hi Louise, I think it is just anxiety induced IBS. It happens to most people on this forum.
Re: constipation - worrying about bowel cancer
I go once a week at the most due to IBS
I have just started taking lepicol and it really helps keep you more regular.
I didn't think constipation was a sign of bowel cancer anyway? more loose stools and blood.
