managing ibs symptoms

[te22a]

Hi, I am new to this site and have been suffering with IBS for a while, but I have only just found this forum after recently buying a laptop!
The main problem I have is with constipation, diarrhea and acid reflux. Does anyone mind sharing their main problems and how they deal with these symptoms? I have tried over the counter remedies but they don’t always work, hope you can help Thanks.

Hi, welcome to the forum, there are some lovely people on here

I suffer with ibs d mostly and acid reflux with a gurgling stomach, so you have my sympathy.

I am having a bad week this week and am going to the doctors tonight about it as it is starting to get me down.I have had a bit of a stressful time at work recently and so think that is what has made this week so bad

I have in the past taken lanzaprozole for the acid and mebeverine for the ibs and have worked well. Have you tried any meds at all?
