About IBS Treatment Center
===========================
Dr. Stephen Wangen, co-founder and Medical Director of the IBS Treatment Center, and his staff have successfully helped over 10,000 people resolve irritable bowel syndrome and chronic digestive problems since 2005.
Some patients have had IBS symptoms so severe that they spent a considerable amount of time in the hospital. Others are suffering alone at home and are no less frustrated with the impact that it is having on their lives. The thread that tied them all together was that they had never seen an IBS expert (much different than a gastroenterologist), a doctor whose only mission is to help people solve IBS.
Patients work with us from around the country and the world via our telemedicine services. Get back your life! Work with us via telemedicine. Visit the IBS Specialists at ibstreatmentcenter.com

This video was informative. I hate what IBS has done to me and it seems every gastro doctor I see, makes it almost sound normal and no big deal. When I don't eat for days I'm fine. The worst part is the bodyaches and even small bruises after these attacks. I decided to just eat once a day and keep it very small and it did wonders but I felt weak. My doctor said "keep up the good work" after 40 pds lost. I'm done ranting I just know others here have experienced similar and it is a lonely road.

I have IBS, but I'm not stressed. I am retired and I stay home and enjoy my dogs and pretty much do whatever I want to. I get flare ups about 5 or 6 times a year. I try to stay away from the foods that I don't do well with. I do best when I eat a lot of fruit and veggies (cooked of course). I noticed that in the summer, I do well with eating all the garden veggies we grow every year. Then as fall and winter come, we start eating chili, spaghetti and all the winter foods and that is when I start having problems. I love spicy foods and most of the time avoid them, but sometimes I just have to eat them...then I pay for it.

Thought l would tell you I'm finding out that l got WORSE with gluten free bread and oat or almond milk because they add stuff that actually made me WORSE!...What's life without bread 🥺?! I am 62 in good health otherwise but Stomach is our 2nd brain so please feel better. 2years is better than 50!!!! DONT HESITATE to go and find someone you have confidence in and get the best help to cure it holistically or at least without prescription drugs if possible. I never had the means and it caused me much anguish and other serious health issues because l left it unchecked for years, then got bad advice. Don't be like me! I wish you a good experience, with a wonderful doctor and hope you're better soon. l would appreciate it if you could tell me what the docs telling you, what tests, etc. Much luck !

I’m in one now, and you probably know that nurses can’t miss work. However, I can’t constantly stop what I’m doing or be in pain and run to the bathroom. Plus, I don’t think the hospital would be too happy if I had diarrhea and went to work. Even though it’s not infectious and we are constantly washing our hands, there’s still a chance of transferring gut bacteria to the pt. Edit: Also, the exhaustion makes it hard to function.

Could she have been going through IBS herself? I do know she fought chronic constipation.

It all has to start somewhere, and the issues that affect the digestive system are mostly the same, regardless of the label that you end up with in the end, which only defines the symptoms. The medical system is great at giving you labels and identifying symptoms, and very poor at actually getting to the cause of the problem.

I have found that there are triggers, but there was for me an underlying food that primed the gun. It took me 18 months to identify, but I can now eat all the trigger foods again, I don’t overdo it, but the foods I can eat again with no problem include a pint of beer, a strong coffee, coleslaw that includes raw cabbage, spices and pasta. For me, the priming food was shop bought bread, I now bake my own from multigrain, organic white and malted flours only. The sensitising agent could be glyphosate residue in cheap flour, raising agents, chemical based emulsifiers or the hyper processed nature of the food. All my symptoms are gone and I enjoy food again.

Suffering since 2 months.. recovering day by day... Last 3 days completely normal... What I followed is.. 1. Elimination gluten and Sugar 2. Gentle Yoga 3. Pranayam 4. 35 mins walk... Day by day I feel I am improving a little bit.. Dear IBS community, have you ever observed if we are in hurry or if we are supposed to complete any target in time may it be simple cooking or any simple task in time... Due to even simple worry our stomach contracts. And doesn't feel like relax stomach... We have to observe this very carefully,....I think this is the reason.. it starts feeling abnormal,.. For that meditation, stressfree no time bound commitment, slow and peaceful working style.. rhythmic pattern of breathing is very necessary to keep brain gut in sync.. I had this IBS 3 YEARS BACK resolved in 2 months then again 1 year back... Again resolved in 1 month and now since last 2 months... Resolving slowly .. since last 3 days....❤

I’ve been to and from multiple doctors for repeated stomach aches. I wasn’t born lactose intolerant. It started when I was 18. Then eating a regular size steak for an average size meal would hurt also, so I cut half of my portions of red meat out to see if that helps, then I start bloating like crazy from eating tomatoes because they’re highly acidic (cooked or uncooked). I’ve had diarrhea for almost a week and lost close to 10 pounds. Weighed 135 two weeks ago. The first three days I had diarrhea, I lost 5 pounds so I weighed 130. Couple more goes by and now I’m 124. If I have IBS I don’t know how long it will take to get use to because there are so many food restrictions. Plus I enjoy running and my weight loss could cause me to be benched if they think I’m too sick to be running. I’ll also be losing muscle which I worked hard on to improve. Any suggestions would be really helpful for coping and eating habits.

I was so thirsty but just the slightest sip of water causes me to continue to vomit and my throat is on fire from the acid Day 2 same symptoms acid vomiting and dry heaving. My stomach feels like I've done a million sit ups. I'm weak I can barely walk I had to call off from work 2days in a row and it sucks because they don't know what I'm going through.

Unfortunately, I have had microscopic colitis for 11 years, which is sort of like a constant IBS flare. Eating this way does help. My problem is, it seems so unhealthy to forever leave out fiber and leafy greens, etc. all the things we are constantly told are best to eat a lot of to be healthy. Those things aren’t healthy for me, as I wind up extremely sick. One thing I have found is to use a juicer to make veggie juices. Mine grinds up the veggies and takes out the pulp and fiber. At least I’m getting some nutrients.

Thank you Rebecca. I am very glad that you found it helpful. Regarding your IBS pain, great question. There is no normal for IBS pain. It can be a constant burning or stabbing pain, just as you described, or it can be just about any other kind of pain that people will describe. And it can also be below the belly button, or just about anywhere else in the abdomen. That's part of the confusion of IBS. I can't give you any kind of truly useful advice on treating alternating IBS via this type of communication. We treat it very successfully all the time, but the treatment varies a great deal from patient to patient. All I can say is that there is a ton of hope for solving it. That's certainly our experience and our expectation.

The image of the woman clutching a hotwater bottle might be a little misleading. In my experience when there is a stomach cramp flare up it helps to lie on your BACK with the warm bottle not over your stomach directly but ON YOUR SIDES (sort of where the kidneys are) alternating, in a DARK room lying on your back. That in my expereince is what brings the fastest relief.. Just saying.The breathing tip is not onlygood, but it is also good for lowering blood pressure! :)

Yes, I've gotten worse IBS. episodes. so, yes to flare ups... but any thing any day can cause a problem. Meat is one of the few foods that don't cause problems. Any vegetable or fruit assures instant problems. noodles don't cause problems but I have to be careful, Sauces and soups do, and almost instantly. A sandwich; so meat, lettuce, maybe a piece of tomato is the safest thing to eat. I use Metamucil to calm down spasms... it does it almost instantly. I love dried fruit but I have to be terribly careful. Your suggestions are really weird because I've had this problem for 35 yrs and soups and soft foods are the worse things for my IBS. Instant running to the bathroom. More liquid, more pain. a simple rule. . I'm trying a low carbohydrate diet and having morning Diarrhea, every morning. I'm fasting part of every day, some, too. It's just the weight has gotten ridiculously high and I want to lose it. I'm in my 70s and if I fall, now, as a widow, it could mean a slow and painful death. My entire digestive system is a mess.. not only IBS, but lactose intolerance. I'm watching your videos but they aren't helping a lot ? Could there be something else going on and the doctor back in the 1980s make a false diagnosis?

I certainly understand your frustration. It sounds exactly like IBS, but IBS is different for everyone. However, the diagnosis of IBS isn't very helpful, at least not in my opinion. We like to help people find the underlying cause or causes (usually it's more than one issue, and often several issues). We expect patients to get better and not have IBS, even when they've had it for 35 years.

Remove plants from your diet and you not only won't have IBS flareups but you won't have IBS. IBS is curable if those who have it switch to animal protein and fat diet with as few carbs as possible. The way to be kind to your gut and to stop diarrhoea and constipation, is to stop eating plants, except a few non inflammatory vegetables in small portions. I didn't have IBS, but I was bloated and had constipation until I changed to animal protein and fat, plus drinking EVOO to lubricate my gut which now works beautifully. No plants diet has also cleared up my eczema and I no longer have sore gums.
