IBS?!!

I’ve never been diagnosed with IBS but certain foods never agree with me and I can’t have any diary but since Friday I have been getting diarrhoea then normal stools then diarrhoea again, I feel absolutely fine but have only been eating plain foods like toast and chicken & chips does this sound like IBS or a bug or??

Needs to last a bit longer to know. If it goes on for more than 3 weeks it may be something like IBS. If not it's probably a bug or as you feel ok otherwise, something you ate.

Could be age-related too. Are you menopause age? Although everything says women over 50 don't get IBS and it "must" be ovarian cancer if they have those sort of symptoms, add the magic word menopause to your search terms and you find out that IBS-type symptoms are pretty common in women of a certain age,
