Hi All I am so sick of my IBS, I can't go anywhere now without having discomfort all day , today we went to the beach, it was a 2hr drive to get there and I was fine first thing. Had a little snack in the car was fine, then lunch, I had a tureky roll a few pringles and some drink and straight away I got trapped wind in my right hand side (it always seems to go there?) Anyway, I wanted to ask is trapped wind part of IBS?? I get it after every meal now, if not trapped just very gasey in general, I also find my lower back aches quite a lot during this.
The peppermint caps are brill they seem to really ease symptoms for me but the ones I am taking only allow you to take them for 2 weeks at a time. Is there anything else I could try??
Also another embarrassing question, I find I usually need the toilet after meals, does anyone else get this? It's so awkward when you're out for the day and can't really go, I had to hold it mostly all day today ![](/messageboards/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif)
