Hello,
I have been reading many posts on this forum for over a month now and have finally plucked up the courage to join.
I am suffering badly from IBS and have been for over a year now but only just found out what it was.
I suffer a lot with D but i am known to have C to. I just basically suffer so badly with every single symptom of IBS. Never feeling stable or like i am 'complete' etc etc.

I also suffer from anorexia and have done for about 10 years with my weight going up and down but never fully health in that 10 year period.
Although i have had the eating disorder for 10 years, my IBS has only been present for the last 1 year and and bit (possibly 2 years really).

It is soooooo difficult now as now I'm wanting to recover and eat what i want to gain when i want....it seems i can't due to the crippling IBS that totally ruins my life (more than the anorexia id say at the moment!)
My diet is so limited and it seems like even the list of safe foods cause me trouble and i never know how I'm going to react from one day to the next. I never know what my stomach and bowels are going to do each day and it is horrible!

I have tried all of the SF supplements and to be honest they didn't really get me to a comfortable place. They left me either bloated and bunged up or caused D swell and they also made me INCREDIBLY full and when i have anorexia and need to eat more, this is not a good thing!

I am only 23 and it feels like my life is ruined forever. I hate this IBS more than words can say.

I would really appreciate any help or advice or diet plans etc from anyone at all. Id do anything to not have this trouble.
I just don't know how to eat anymore and thats down to both anorexia and IBS. I don't know what, how, when to eat.

If anyone can relate to having anorexia as well as IBS that would be great to hear any help.
I mean is my weight hindering the IBS? Does anorexia cause it or does it make it worse now?

Sorry for the long post. Im just at breaking point!

Thank you. xxx
