IBS medication that works, help please

[DumpedByText]

After a CT scan and FIT test that was clear the consultant has diagnosed IBS. I've never been physically examined, and had to have an abdominal scan instead of colongram as they won't do them due to Covid.

He prescribed mebevirene which worked initially. However, I'm now back to square one, explosive diaharrea within 15 minutes of eating, extreme wind and awful nausea.

I'm going to call my GP next week to try to discuss with them. So should I push for different medication or more tests.

The consultant did say that a colongram was the only way to completely rule out bowel cancer, but they could only do abdo scans. So I'm worried something could have been missed.

I swear by Colpermin (you can get in on Amazon.

During my worst attacks I am lying sweating on the bathroom floor, vomiting from the pain and almost passing out.

These have been life changing. I’ll take one in the lead up if I recognise it coming on, or two if I’m in the above state. Within 5 minutes I’ve relaxed. Within 10-15 I’ve been able to go to the loo and it’s all over.

Honestly, try them. They are the only thing that has worked for me and I now trust them.

I have read that with IBS, when you have been in that much pain a few times, the next time it starts the fear of the pain can actually increase the severity of the attacks. These little miracle workers help with that as well I think because I KNOW they work for me so as soon as I’ve taken them I am able to start to relax and wait for them to have their effect - and the fact that I’m relaxing does probably as much to help as the pills tbh.

I don’t care WHY they work, they just DO!!
