ok this is actually a cliche but considering that ive managed to learn to cope with ibs, marijuana actually is great for ibs (dont believe all the propaganda about pot)..it eases pain, and considering it slows down your heart rate im geussing it slows down your bowel movements, but dont quote me on that one…the only thing to watch with it is that you crave food after a joint, just becarful not to eat your “trigger foods”

@TEQUILAzhack25 it sounds like you have an interlinking anxiety problem with ibs, i suffered the same when i was 13…just relax and always carry anti diorrhea medication sorted me right out :)

@markdeathnotefan i really do symapthise with you, when i was 13 (im now 17) i took an entire year off school because of my ibs, i hadnt even heard of it..my advice to you is to discover your trigger foods, everyones is diffrent mine is grease, oil and fat.. anyways avoid them as much as possible i also recomend carrying loperamide and buscopan medication at all time as this makes you feel at ease should you be ill and actually helps! hope i have been of help

I’m 14 and I have IBS. Yes, i’m 14!
I’m going to high school where attendance counts and I miss a lot of days due to this condition! The only way I coupe with that problem is like not eating at 5 o clock after school! So I starve or I have to take a lot of pepto in the morning! This isn’t fair! People please pray for me :)
I’m a smart kid who cares about grades and I try hard.

@2Lazy4aRealName Same here mate, I’m 15 and I’ve had it a few months and it hurts me like crazy. I have stopped eating and have lost a load of weight. All the doctors do is send me for bloodtests. It got to a point where I was in pain so much I wrote a list of the symptoms I had. I didn’t get to read the whole list before the doctor said it sounded like IBS. I could have something else combined according to the doctor. But I’m in horrible pain like everyday and I hate goin’ to the toilet…

In my 23 years of suffering from IBS, I’ve never met one professional who even had a clue. Every one has a cookie-cutter textbook explanation and treatment that does not work. Treating IBS takes a considerable amount of knowledge, detective work and patience. There is no cure because each case is different under the hood. Eliminating trigger foods is step #1. You must to be symptom free for 3 months before you can get to treating the underlying cause and working toward a permanent recovery.

saburius July 29, 2010 at 6:07 am

I completely agree. All the videos I watched so far sound like they are reading it out of a book. IBS is a very complex disorder and symptoms vary greatly from case to case and there is no food regiment that every one can follow. Food elimination is definitely the place to start because on a higher level it is all about food intolerance that causes the symptom. Underlyingly however there are almost an infinite number of variables. With IBS you are pretty much on your own. I had it for 23 years.

I have IBS too and it sucks. i got this really bad virus that has been going around my town and i havent been able to keep any food down for over a week. ive missed a lot of school, its really annoying. my doctors me this past weekend to get an IV and it kinda helped but the dinziness and relex didn’t go away. one thing about ibs is if it keeps building up, it gets worse. i mean i had a really bad flare up a month ago and food poisoning, so thats why im so sick. i feel bad for anybody with this.
