hi all,
haven't posted on here in a while as *touch wood* things haven't been too bad.
a couple of weeks ago I went to a restaurant where the food didn't agree with me and had terrible cramps and an upset stomach the next day, and this has triggered off a bad IBS bout first I was having diarrhoea for a few days (didn't take anything) and now everything had just ground to a halt. I took a laxative last Friday which made me feel a bit rubbish but at least I had 2 bowel movements the next day. I haven't been since then and I am SO bloated - I look pregnant. I've kept to a plain diet over the weekend and haven't had much fruit and veg to see if that would help and it hasn't. I cant take more laxatives as im back at work tomorrow. The usual things I do to relieve bloating - massage, hot water bottle, mint - just aren't working. Any tips?
