This happens almost every morning maybe 3/4 times a week if not more & has been going on for years.
Minutes after I wake in the morning I get severe stomach cramps , exactly like contractions , it is agonising it makes me sweat and I have to take deep breaths , it feels no different than a contraction , this is then followed by a severe need for the toilet for a poop, usually diarrhoea. & pains don't continue after I poop
This only seems to happen in the morning... could this be ibs?
