Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Every since I can remember I think I've only gone 1 or 2 times a week. But then I did't pay close attention. I'm trying to get a diagnosis and the doc asked me if I've ever been C. I said no, only D. But after reading the board now I think that I might have been. I though C would make you bloated and gassy and be painful. Well I'm always gassy so...

I take 2 or 3 Immodium when I have to go somewhere and then of course don't go for about a week. But it isn't painful nor do I feel like man I wish I could go. So is that C?

I go back for a follow up visit on monday. All he had me do was cut our dairy for 2 wks and then eat whatever for next 2 keeping a diary.

I found the diet in the process and am a little worried he would tell me I have IBS because the diet seems to be doing a pretty good job. I have had to take Immodium 2 times during the diary and wrote it down, but if that is a description of C maybe I should tell him.

Thanks this board is becoming a wonder for me. I did't know I could take small doses of Immodium everyday. I'm going to try it.
