I'm not sure if i have IBS. I've suffered from a hietal hernia for many years. over the last few days I've constantly felt like i need to toilet to poo. Ive had very yellow loose stools and one day just loads of mucas. also nausea and stomach pains. not felt ill like a bug. what can i do?
Hi Gary/it sounds like ibs ,however has your doctor given you any tests too confirm it is ibs or is it the case that you think it is ibs,if the latter ,i would suggest you go to your doctor and let him decide what it is.
If your symptoms go on for longer than a week, you should see your doctor for tests and diagnosis. I had constipation, abdominal pain, loose stools, nausea and back pain. I went to my doctor after two weeks and had tests. I was diagnosed with IBS three and a half months later.Your symptoms could be down to any number of things so make an appointment with your doctor to rule out possible causes.
