My daughter has recently been diagnosed with IBS (well, an almost certain diagnosis) with constipation dominant. She has suffered with these symptoms on and off for years and I have been back to the doctors numerous times. The on going problem is constantly feeling sick (although she's not actually sick). She is now eating little and often but the sickness feeling does sometimes get worse after eating (trigger foods?). This has put her off some foods but it just feels like we're totally unguided. She does not want to go out at all (she has not been out with her friends at all this summer holiday) and this has now led to a whole other problem where she will be in tears if I insist she comes out with me. I feel she is in a vicious circle - feeling sick, anxious making the sickness worse. I am trying to get some counselling organised but when you need these things doing NOW it's all so painfully slow. With the new term starting next week I really don't know what to do next. She is usually a happy girl, out all the time with her friends and it is heartbreaking seeing her like this. Any advice?
