I've started to have digestive issues that I'm blaming on peri.
I Saw a consultant a few weeks ago as I was having right sided niggles that were possibly gallbladder related. Consultant said no they weren't

I've been diagnosed with IBS years ago that settled to be honest and didn't cause me many issues. Until the last year or two.

My symptoms have been

Urgency to use the loo in a morning, often passing 4/5 bowel movements then having a couple of days of normal BMs

Feeling like I need a poo after eating

Excessive, excessive flatulence as soon as I eat

Bloating

Occasional constipation

Niggles and twinges around my right rib. However today I have now got a feeling of gas under my left rib. It's not unlike being pregnant and feeling baby's elbow moving under your rib. I know it's gas I can feel it build up and move. It started after eating earlier this afternoon and still hasn't gone off. It's not painful just a sensation of gas under there building up.

I've never had this feeling before under my left rib. I can't pin point what I'm eating that causes it. I did eat beans earlier which tend to give me wind but never this sensation under my rib.

Sorry I'm rambling on - does this sound like IBS
