I have blacked out more since having IBS. Usually it's from the pain. About a month ago, I was having my period and had horrible menstrual cramps and then intestinal cramps and blacked out on an airplane of all places!! I then continued blacking out off and on for three days. I finally was seen in the ER where they said it was from the pain of cramping(both menstrual and intestinal) and from dehydration. I am now drinking a TON of water a day and I notice that if I don't drink enough, I get faint all over again. Hope this helps a bit. YOu are not alone. It is a scary feeling and you feel a bit out of control, but hang in there!!
