Do you get tension headaches from that as well? I have this thing with my jaw... I don't know whether I'm a bruxist (grinding one's teeth while asleep is called bruxism, my partner does this every night)... but I often wake up with my jaw locked and I can't open my mouth fully. This makes it quite difficult to brush my teeth! And it also seems to relate to the whopper tension headaches I get. It tends to go away after I wiggle my jaw round a bit and pop it back out to "open", but it sort of pops when I open and close my mouth for a while afterwards. I never really thought about it too much, what with my collection of other minor ailments.
As for my IBS, I'm pretty mild, fortunately. I'm A, I'll not go for three or four days in a C cycle, and I don't really get watery on my D cycles, rather just loose and urgent. My main problem is nausea, or it may be that I just notice that more because I'm emetophobic. I get some pain and bloating also, but they don't bother me as much.
