Colon or bowel spasms?? IBS??

[Triggles]

I went to GP today for the second time in a week. Having abdominal pain (lower, in front, waves of it extremely painful), tenderness, and bloating. I was constipated, but after taking Milk of Magnesia the other day, it at least is moving along again. GP seems to think it's bowel spasms or IBS and prescribed Buscopan tablets. I've taken a couple doses today, and there's some mild relief, but still getting pain when standing up and walking around. Is this typical of IBS or colon spasms?

could be .... difficult to tell. IBS has SO many variants.

Drink lots of water. Ditch the caffeine. Drink lots of peppermint tea. Eat plain foods for a bit, no alcohol, limited sugar.

Try and rest too. Warm baths are good.
