    ibs symptoms

    morning all. i am just after some advice and reassurance please. for months and months now i have been having problems with my stomach adn been back and forward to docs who where saying it was due to stress/anxiety which probably partly is or that it coudl be due to ibs. they also did some blood tests which showed bacteria infection which was treated wtih antibioitcs and i thought that woudl solve the problem - it has partly but i am still getting pains. these can be a feeling of trapped wind which is fine i know what that is but i am also getting a lot of pain round the left side just below ribs. its really startign to get me down it is every day just niggling away and i wondered if anyone else got similar symptoms. starting to get a bit worried again which i know doesn't help. please someone reassure me.

    hi jackie
    i can totally sympathise with you. I have the same and get moments when i need the toilet urgently. i have ben referred to gastro as my doc thinks its IBS but you have to have everything else excluded before they diagnose it.
    ive been tols that anxiety affects the stomach worst of all and in my experience your tummy can cause pains in lots of different places.
    take care
