To be fed up of feeling crap

[FurryAndObnoxious]

I'm going to moan. I've got diarrhoea all the time (doc thinks likely ibs) and a stomach so big I can't close my jeans. I constantly feel knackered and hungover even when I'm not. When I'm due on my period I can't get off the loo. Anyone else just feel low level crap!?

Anyone else ever felt like this? what helped?

Did the doc not say anything else that would help? Like what could be causing the ibs?
I know a couple of people with ibs and they avoid gluten. I don’t know if that’s helpful to you.

I did the fodmap diet and think the issue is garlic so I avoid it. I think alot of my ibs is hormone related as it's awful around my period

Yup I’ve had ibs since I was in my late teens. Always worse on the run up to a period.
I also avoid McDonald’s, fresh tomatoes, over eating, fatty food. Try fodmap, Imodium and buscopan.

I'm thinking of giving up sugar to see if it helps?!? I get terrible joint pain too since having my baby a year ago
