could it be IBS. For weeks now suddenly with no warning I get attacks of diarrhea which last for 12 hours accompanied by stomach cramps. It goes and then I'm left feeling starving hungry. last week I felt very sick and bloated too which lasted for a couple of days which was horrible.

I've always had a relatively good relationship with my bowel although occaisionally I would get sudden attacks but these went very quickly and it was usually after eating a take away! or macdonalds.

I have found lately that I am uncomfortable after drinking tea or coffee and yeserday I drank a lot of tea and coffee (went to friends) and I wonder if that had anything to do with it?

Any advice would be appreciated>

It does sound like IBS symptoms to me, as someone else with IBS. But if this is a new problem for you I would see your GP to make sure it isn't anything else.

I find I can't tolerate coffee since I developed it, but am fine with tea.

Hope it settles down for you soon, sounds very uncomfortable.

I have IBS, mine is not helped by tea, macd's/burger king, take aways, etc.

Peppermint tea may help?
