Since last year I have been having tummy trouble, I have always suffered with wind at times but this is different. I saw my GP who said it was probably excessive wind and once a GP when I was in my teens suggested IBS but I was never tested or given medication.
This year has been terrible for it, I get about 2 days a month sometimes more often where I get the symptoms but this is the first time since early april when I last had it.
Last night I had my tea, just a salad, tuna & jacket potatoe and I went to bed. I woke up at 2.30am with my stomach really bubbling very very low down almost in my knicker area and I felt like I needed to trump for britain, lol! tmi The middle of my stomach felt ok but then higher up in the abdomen just under my chest right in the middle felt all bubbly too and I felt like I wanted to keep burping, yuk!
I feel exactly the same today I went to the loo this morning, tmi but it wasn't the runs but it wasn't normal either iyswim, which I always get when this wind flares up.
I just feel so sickly, my stomach is bubbling away and I can't face eating. I hate it when I get this, it takes a day or so to ease.
Does this sound like ibs? does anyone else suffer like this?
I am seeing my GP for a follow up about my skin in 2 weeks so I am going to have a chat with him about it and try and get a proper diagnosis, I am sick of this flaring up. I am just drinking water and taking gaviscon.
I was worrying I had gallstones last time it flared up but the discomfort isn't on the right side and its not pain really its just so much wind I could burst
