First, I have to say you look like my younger brother! GREAT guy (2nd only to hubby)
IBS A. most of the time I am a C. But then a few times a year...I get D. And then RIGHT AWAY (usually within an hour or two after the D is over)I become C again. It is AWFUL! I have had IBS since I was FIVE. The pain used to get so bad the only things that would make the cramps/gas stop was to vomit...which I did unvoluntarily!
Nowadays I am doing better but not perfect. I have been to oodles of docs...I have a GREAT naturopath (in the desert actually as well!) and he is SO helpful. The most helpful thing for me though has been to remove offensive foods. Gluten, dairy, sugar, animal protein are the WORST!
Have yo done an elimination diet?
It is VERY interesting to me that you have a pattern happening where you get D around the same time eahc month. I would journal! i know guys don't get PMS...but they do get something (read this somewhere) and I wonder if ti effects your bowels? Just a thought...
Great that you're posting...hope you feel well soon!
