That's not a typical symptom of IBS. You need to tell your doctor about this. When were you diagnosed? Did you have a colonoscopy done then?

Hi Peggyann,
Welcome to the boards. I have a best friend named Peggy, too.
Sorry you are having the pains at night. I don't usually have that although once in a while I will have mild cramping through the night and then get up with "D" but thank goodness it doesn't happen too often. Usually it's from a trigger food I ate.
I am on Librax, too. I have panic attacks and anxiety. It seems to relax me and relax my tummy, too, so it's not tied up in knots when I eat.
Sorry, I don't have any advice for you but hope you feel better soon.
Barbie

Welcome to the boards Peggyann!
I also had pain that woke me from a sound sleep(lower abdominal). Althought it happened infrequently, when it did happen it was almost unbearable. I have had all the tests and have been diagnosed with IBS.
Following Heather's diet has eliminated that "unbearable pain" and the only time I have real trouble is when I eat a trigger (usually unknowingly).
If you haven't had all the tests to rule out other conditions, please do so, as this type of pain can be a symptom Crohn's etc.
Hope this helps & hope you feel better soon.
Kim

thanks Linz,
Yes i habve had colonoscopy,and upper too! stool cultures,blood work ,Idont have crohns biospys,female doctor stuffand so on.
It is just plain wierd. I also have problems with p latley
so i have had a d/c done too. They all say this is ibs.I dont have it all the time,but i am learning that maybe it is a trigger food. I have had been dignosed with ibs about 12 years ago. but it has never been this bad before either.
Lots of stress in my life right now. but i am going to change the way i fell and eat. tired of the stuff.
thanks
peggy
