Hi all, I was diagnosed in January when Admitted to hospital but it was complicated as I had a hole in my bowel so extremely painful then - so I suppose that was an extreme case . I'm sure all flare ups are not quite that dramatic..any how for the last couple of days I have had diarrea and a really uncomfortable stomach . Around 10 minutes after I eat the food evacuates and I'm stuck on loo for some time.i don't feel sick however my stomach feels really bloated and hard. I was stuck at work yesterday for 2 hours after my shift as couldn't risk getting in my car to drive incase I needed the loo...I've taken diarrea tablets today however , I don't know if this is just a bug or flare up...no real pain just very uncomfortable stomach
I think it's a IBS that you are explaining right now but see your doctor to get advice. I talk Bentyl for IBS. Your explaining the pain, bloating and having to go constantly to the bathroom sounds similar to what happens to me. Diverticulitis is a complicated disease and IBS just adds to it.
I have had 3 really bad diarrhoeas so far today and it's only 6-15 I am going to take one Imodium to try and stop it x
Probably colon spasms causing it. Drink some peppermint or camomile tea.
