My IBS pain always happens at night. Once I’m calm and relaxed. My IBS attacks are so painful I can’t even breathe and I feel like I’ve been poisoned and I have to do anything to get it out. Before I have an IBS attack I breakout in a hot sweats and I instantly feel like my body is shutting down. It’s so bad.

[@BeckyExcell]

That sounds awful Payton, hope you're ok. Are there any things that help when you're having an IBS attack? Peppermint tea is the only thing that helps me x

[@p_alexa26]

Becky Excell usually just emptying my system completely calms a attack, but the days after an attack I feel very awful. I will have to try that! Any specific brand that is better or that you like that helps? I do not take any medication for my IBS. So tea sounds like a great alternative!

[@teret6356]

What side do you feel pain

[@p_alexa26]

Tere T all over, it’s almost like that feeling of an upset stomach or having to go to the restroom really bad and having to hold it but a general idea would just feel like instant poison that I have to get out no matter what or how. There’s no side just my entire stomach.

[@krissyrosas5322]

I get the same thing !!!! I can sort of pin point what triggers my ibs pain .. this morning I’m having some moderate pains 😞😞😞😞it sucks i completely relate girl.

[@suzannekazmiruk183]

My biggest frustration is when I bloat for no apparent reason. So hard to make plans because you never know when your gut is going to twist up in pain.

[@elujan1211]

And people don't understand that it just happens without notice 😔😔😭😭😭

[@AbeGlTV]

I thought I was crazy as a kid people would ask why I never wanna go somewhere when I actually did I was just afraid of flare ups

[@ygcgg-bd4wu]

Exactly. Constant and horrible bloating is the worst part. I don't understand the pain except in cases where the IBS goes into diarrhea with bad food, which is very rare. But flatulence is crippling and frustrating

[@utubeSome]

I am a man but have the same..nothing planned and enjoyable because boating. Pain on the side

[@guyfawkes7949]

The pain is just horrible. I hold my stomach and roll on the floor, regretting everything and wondering if I should live in uncertainty for the rest of my life. Glad there are people to share the experience.

[@ashwitak1725]

I do the same

[@elujan1211]

[@iankralovetz5642]

My amazing doctor recommended Citrucel. It's a drink mix and you mix it with Tang. I've never had any more major attacks since.

[@richasharma2366]

Does this pain happen anytime like some sharp pain here and there

[@mustafaibrahim6157]

Ibs is a nightmare just thinking about it. I stay away from all the foods that they say cause it but it’s crazy how I eat normal things sometimes in very small portions and get the most unbearable abdominal pain. And I also eat things that should trigger IBS but nothing happens!! So it’s very unpredictable really !! The pain is usually on my middle upper abdominal area but can also shit to the sides. It sometimes starts with heartburn and slowly develops into bloating and the worst painful cramps. I feel like I’m too full and gassy and I can’t release any gas. No amount of water can solve the issue. It also sometimes feel like drinking water can make the situation feel worse. And then comes Constipation. The worst pain is when I wan to sleep or during sleep. I sometimes wake up from the pain and find myself in face down ass up position. I also sometimes make my self throw up to ease up the discomfort. It sometimes last a day or 3 days sometimes 4. Nothing I tried worked. The worst for me is the pain. Unfortunately it’s not like a headache, you can’t just take pain killer for it. All anti spasms medications didn’t manage the pain much for me. My problem with all the advices I got from doctors or saw online they don’t touch much on pain management. Peace and love ☮️ ❤️ Please share your experience with me and if you relate I would appreciate some advice on pain management

[@campbellxeason]

Does anyone else hate their life sometimes because of their IBS? :,( gotta stay positive though I guess. Edit: July 9 2020 I had no idea that a comment I made years ago - probably in the bathroom not having fun - would be like the top comment. Since then I’ve figured out that schedules help ME. Sticking to a schedule every day whether it’s sleeping waking up or eating etc. I went to the ER the other week for the first time because my stomach hurt THAT bad. Back on my daily routine more sense I’ve been back and it helps. I’ve tested cutting out a lot of foods and many have helped. I apologize to anyone and everyone with this type of pain - I get it, but it’s what we’ve got. Try your best. Oh and exercising really helps me but I know for others it makes it worse. Stay hydrated and such. Anyways, I know it’s a long read but stay strong y’all! And thank you to the OP for making this video

[@rosesolorio81]

My Doctor has done endoscopy plus colonoscopy still has not diagnosed me....however he did prescribe me with bentyl for ibs?? I'm so confused and yes I used those exact words I'm hating life right now unfortunately

[@Rebeldewayraluka]

i just said these words the last couple of days. Ibs its awful!

[@pipelineaudio]

All the time. On the plus side, when I did professional bmx, no pain a ramp or jump could cause could compete with my stomach pain, so maybe was straight up suicidal in the air. If I died, the pain would be gone, and if I live, I just pulled something glorious that I can see in videos decades later. Career wise though, man I’m lucky I got as far as I could, but it’s still hard. I had some life changing opportunities the last two weeks and I had to turn them down, very depressed about that

[@tatyanadavydenko2739]

A tip is to not wear tight clothes, especially when going out to dinner or breakfast ir lunch because the tight clothes will push on your stomach and make the pain worse. Wear comfortable clothes.

Totally feel you on all this Becky, I am now 30 and had this since I was 18 after a traumatic loss of a close family member, So many people I know do not understand IBS and how life ruining it can be, having to always scope out the nearest bathrooms when going somewhere new, being bloated and uncomfortable and still having to battle through work etc. the list goes on! it gets old having to explain it over and over again to people, even my own dad still doesn't fully 'get it'

This is just superb, been searching for "what is chronic ibs" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Mackorny Defeat IBS Blueprint - (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my m8 got great success with it

[@MrEnjoivolcom1]

It is! You cannot even truly begin to convey just how much it hurts. If to be honest, the obvious go-to pain sites will be your stomach, abdomen, colon/rectum & anus. Hemorrhoids are a near constant. Then there's the immense torture that is cramping, bloating & gas. You begin to plan your entire life around "what if my stomach flares up". It becomes a secondary sense always to (and needing to) know where the bathroom is wherever you are. Preemptively bringing an extra pair of underwear with you or having a pair stashed away in the car for those unexpected moments (though, sort of expected or else why be doing it in the first place). It's a living Hell. Everyone at my work knows my situation and if I'm ever trapped in the bathroom and can't make it in for my shift because I'm 💩 my brains out, I simply call in to say "hey, my stomach...can't make it today sorry" or that I'll be there but it's gonna be a wee little bit. And there's the recovery time afterwards. With IBS, you use every muscle, tendon, ligament etc. when going 💩. Upon completion, you are left literally exhausted and able to do nothing physically assertive nor demanding but to lift a finger and point. It is the absolute worst! Rant over.

[@worldlychurchgirl]

I've been woken up with pain and have to REMIND myself that it's my IBS acting stupid!!! I have had pain under my rib cage. In my back. Or my whole stomach. And you're right... It's depressing, frustrating, and it SUCKS!!! I thank God I found your channel cause I truly thought I was trippin’ with all these pains and symptoms. Thanks for sharing your crappy journey, so we know that we are in this potty together!!! 🙏🏾💜🙏🏾

[@puppetken]

Have you been diagnosed with IBS?

[@elizarbeth6995]

My pain hàs gone down from left abdomen to my butt cheeks

[@TheNoepje]

Well girl.. I know EXACTELY how you feel. My IBS pain can be so so bad. I get horrible cramps with diarrhea and throwing up at random times. I sometimes pass out coz of the pain. I dont feel taken serious. Im from holland and employers dont really get it. The pain is so so bad that working is difficult. Some employers have said it's between my ears. Uhh well I've been diagnosed with IBS and to hear my employer say something like that hurts. I can't get out of the house sometimes because of the pain. I have to sit it out on the toilet with a bucket to puke in. My bf makes me peppermint tea and rubs my back for hours while im on the toilet. Bless him cause the smell can be horrible. 💩 I think there still isn't enough awareness for IBS. I'm writing this sitting on my toilet taking a breath before the cramping returns. It's like being in labour for me. They're colic pains and come and stay for 10 mins and i have to inhale and breath and focus on a certain object to not lose my mind. And then they pass. After a few mins they return and so on. And this can last up to 4 hours. My bf has called the emergency ambulance a couple of times cause I was passing out. But as soon as they found out that you suffer from IBS they get all cranky that they were called. Like it isn't a real disease or something. Well the pain is bloody real! I'm sweating like a pig when those colics come up. It's messed up. Cause like you said yourself.. Even when you haven't eaten something wrong, the pain can still occur. I feel so alone in this sometimes. This can happen up to 3 times a week and is disabling. I'm complety knackered the next day after the colic pains have passed. It is "just" IBS.. well it feels like a horrible flare up from IBD or colon cancer or something. Whished IBS got the same interest around here. 😕 Good luck to you. Your little clips help ppl. Here I am in pain but watching your clip helps me to get trough. Thnx

[@miahmarieeeeee]

How have you been feeling know after 2 years

[@TheNoepje]

@@miahmarieeeeee this is so strange that you're asking me this today on this day. Like you knew haha. Cause today I found out via vaginal echoscopy that I suffer severe endometriosis. And that that is probably the cause of all my bowel pain and problems. The gynecologist said a correct diagnosis can take 8 to 12 years. It has been mistaken for IBS. But since it is so severe now it has affected my bowels. The endometriosis is also in my bowels that the IBS is probably a cause of that. I've had endometriosis exams in 2015 and nothing was there. But my new gyno says it must've been there. I've been in extreme bowel and backpain for 3 years now and my gp said it's just sciatica and IBS. Well it's not. It's the endometriosis that grew out of my ovaries and has affected everything. I'm really sad. Cause I've been in extreme menstrual pain as well since I started menstruating as a young girl. It has always been said this was my bowel or just stress or that I have low pain tolerance. And now it's too late. I'm not fertile anymore. If my gp had listened to me earlier in life things mightve been different. Then again.. Why they didn't see endo in 2015 is a rhydle. How are you doing yourself??

[@TheNoepje]

@TANISHQ MATHUR thank you. I was diagnosed with severe endometriosis last month. There's cysts in my ovaries and a lot of adhesions. My bowel is stuck to my uterus. My ovaries are kissing. It's a mess. Ibs and endo go hand in hand.

[@sisco9soccer]

I refuse to believe that it’s forever. I went 26 years (now 30) without a single ibs related pain. But now it’s happened? No. Stay hopeful. Something in your system changed. And I’m working to find out what.

[@SymoneLenae]

sisco9soccer EXACTLY! I’ve gone 26 years with a great digestive system and all of s sudden (dec 2018) I start developing crazy digestive problems (GERD, Ibs) has blood test, ultrasound, chest X-ray all normal. I just turned 27 & still battling this. It goes in & out. Start feeling better then BAM it’s back, just doesn’t make any sense. I hope you’re recovering and feeling better/a handle in whatever is going on! Cheers

Thank you for ranting on IBS! Today I am having a bad IBS day and it’s making me depressed bc I have been doing everything right or at least I think so. I guess your reactions make me feel more normal and validated.

[@koshowulf]

the pain can be related to a nerve reaction from the autonomous nervous system or your immune system, triggering your IBS symptoms within minutes. Bloating and pain is such a downer, but also literally, my gastrointestinal specialist explained that serotonin the mood regulating hormone is produced and absorbed in the gut, so any disturbance with digestion or the intestines can effect your mood greatly! hence why bowel conditions are linked with depression and anxiety. Also really relate to the feeling fat comment! I'm actually thin, and on the lowest end of my healthy bmi weight, but when IBS causes bloat and pain I look so puffy and my clothing won't fit

[@BeckyExcell]

Yeah completely I'm the same, no where near fat but so frequently my clothes don't fit due to bloating. Definitely agree about mood and stomach. Brain and gut just affect each other so much.. it's hard to balance everything though xx

[@josierox]

The bloat!!! I constantly wear dresses and leggings to allow for size fluctuations throughout the day. I don't nap but if I wake up in the night or early in the morning and lie there awake I do get this. I don't know if it's the position I'm lying in, but it seems to always happen. People think it's weird cause I say I can't have a lay in because I get a stomach ache! Maybe its psychological once it's happened a few times I worry about it and make my own stomach churn :(

[@BeckyExcell]

Totally. I go to work in the morning with my trousers loose and by the end of the day they dont fit me anymore! I can't even remember the days now where I used to go out in fairly tight fitting dresses - definitely couldn't now! Aw yeah I get this then too, I really don't get an IBS stomach!!

Thank you for the video, IBS has been with me since I was in my twenties now I am in my fifties so unfortunately I have suffered from it a lot. I can totally relate to what you said about social life, you have to plan everything thinking about a possible IBS attack. Three years ago I was diagnosed with celiac disease and with the gluten free diet my IBS condition improved quite a lot . My worst part of the day is right after waking up in the morning, there were times that I really struggled to get ready to be on time for work and that gave me more stress. Another detail I can share after so many years is the fact that winter time is the best season of the year for break outs and the worst is spring and summer to some extend.

[@BeckyExcell]

Hi Aurelia, so sorry to hear that you have had IBS for such a long time - I think I'm going to be like you and have it for many years to come as well. It's all about managing it though, right?!

Thanks for this video Becky. The systemS and pain your describing is my life and has been since I was born I was 1 of the first people to be diagnosed with ibs in the earlier 80’s. Then no believe it was a really illness no one understood what it was like. I had every test and exam possible saw countless specialists most told me it was all in my head. I live with pain constantly And relate to this video so much. I’m so pleased all who are diagnosed with IBS now are understood and that ibs is now a recognised illness. Again thanks Becky this video makes me feel less alone living with ibs.

[@anonymous92126]

I'm so happy to find these kinds of videos. Even though everyone has different symptoms these videos promote solidarity and help people understand others and what's going on with their own bodies. I've been diagnosed with a bunch of stuff over the years, because there's something going on with my system that no one can really identify. I have really the whole scale of problems with my digestive system and my hormones as well. I have a doctor's appointment coming this December and I'm anxious to bring up IBS because I don't wanna be seen as a hypochondriac patient. It's hard but research helps as does seeing other people go through similar situations. I just had a stomach cramp this morning and had to just slowly walk around for an hour hunched over to ease it over. Sending everyone strength and hope. 🍀

The pain being instantaneous is EXACTLY how I feel, too! Pain or nausea/discomfort is lightning fast if I'm eating something I'm not sure about (I cannot pinpoint trigger foods at ALL--ANYTHING can set me off). All I do after that is have peppermint tea or tons of water to try to encourage burps or bathroom trips, so the pain/discomfort/bloating passes. I'm so grateful for all your IBS videos. I was diagnosed earlier this year after six months of rapid, terrifying weight loss, intense nausea and d problems that had me literally pass out from exhaustion, but this is the first time I looked up videos of other people's experiences with it. It's both heartbreaking and encouraging to hear someone express exactly what I've been enduring for a year+ now.

[@BeckyExcell]

I'm really glad my videos have helped in some way. I always feel bad too saying that it's nice to know I''m not alone with IBS, it's nice to relate to others but I wish other people didn't have to go through it. It really sucks!

[@jay252065]

Thankfully my hyoscyamine manages my IBS pain pretty well. But I still get really bad spasms a few times a week. Mine builds up. So I can feel the start of an awful day. So my lower stomach will start to feel off. Then as the day goes on it gets worse. Then out of no where it hits me and I literally fall to the ground into a ball with how bad I’m in pain. People just don’t understand unless you have it. I always get weird looks and stuff from people. I can’t help it when it feels like someone is stabbing me in my intestines. IBS is just such an inconvenience lol.

[@theglutenfreeveggie6410]

Strangely our symptoms differ a lot. Mine come on about 20 minutes after eating, I get pain lower down and trapped gas/acid reflux (which is controllable). I don't get the massive bloated stomach either. My pains are immobilising, don't know about you. If I'm having an attack I have to sit down and pretty much rock. Sometimes dig my fingernails into my palm to try and distract form the the pain in my stomach (irrational I know but when the pain is that extreme you don't have control over it). Same as you I get stress cramps - now that I've found my food triggers my IBS attacks are pretty much only stress related luckily. I do occasionally get random pains but not so much anymore. The full feeling is definitely something I experience - I don't understand how people can fit it all in! I have two or three meals a day and the occasional snack. Some people would starve on that hahaha. Here's another one - do you get uterus cramps (not period cramps) when you have IBS? My IBS sets off that entire area - even my legs sometimes cramp up a bit. That can be really debilitating.

[@BeckyExcell]

Aww yeah they are quite different. When mine are at their worst I literally cannot move, I just try and crawl into a ball! IBS is such a weird beast though. I mean how can our symptoms differ so much! Yeah I get cramps everywhere, not just in my stomach either. I really need to sort out every food trigger, and then deal with being more chilled out and not so stressed! xx

39 y old male here. I’ve had IBS for about 5 years now. Started as terrible diarrhoea and stomach pain. I turned to a low FODMAP diet - completely cutting out wheat, dairy, onions and many other things. It helped a lot and stopped the awful diarrhoea but after a few years I now just seem to have constant stomach pain and bloating, even without eating any trigger foods. Similar to you, it’s worse from afternoon onwards. I’ve seen specialists and spoken to my doctor a lot but tend to get nowhere. Did a few months of Symprove probiotics and not seen any improvement. My next plan is to test for SIBO, also do a comprehensive stool test to rule out anything like parasites. It’s becoming quite debilitating so will keep tying to figure out what to do.

I suddenly got IBS after going off a certain drug! At first, I did not understand it, and I suffered terribly. After a year passed, I felt and thought that I suffered a great curse. This is very negative, but the conditions...Strange, unprecedented and amazing circumstances had led me to this conclusion. Now that I am fully aware of this disease and have learned all its aspects through a lot of research, I have stopped this negativity. Knowledge is the key to freedom from captivity. I will fight and never stop fighting to defeat this senseless humiliation. Knowing more and better, my differential diagnosis board is more complete to try all the ways. I never stopped trying to beat it and never quit. Because I saw and heard people with the same disease They completely destroyed it. I can't deal with this situation, so I will never deal with it, but I will change the situation. Let's stay strong and eradicate this disease forever with a fighting, tireless, positive and hopeful mindset. God bless all IBS patients and make them proud and victorious in this difficult test.

[@deborahmcgovern8667]

Wow! I have just came across your channel, after finding out that the pain I have suffered from for almost 18 years and been taking tramadol for could actually be down to IBS. The more I hear about it, the more I can see the dots joining together. I can understand the 'episodes' as I call them if I've eaten something that doesn't agree and sometimes out of the blue for no apparent reason or trigger to cause them, they are pretty nasty and crippling when they happen, but it's the constant pain that's confusing and SO annoying. 😢. Constantly nagging away day in day out. I feel I relate to what you've said on practically every level. It makes you feel so anti social and almost afraid to eat, especially if your having a day of fairly mild pain, you don't want to upset the slight relief but then it seems to kick off no matter what. Sorry for waffling on but it really is a relief to know it isn't in my head (which I had been told previously, but they never thought to mention IBS until now!) I had no previous problems at all, it started about three months after I had my twin daughters by c-section, and I always maintained that the whole process had upset the natural limbo of my body and it now appears I could have bee right. Keep up the great videos and thank you for sharing, it's a relief to know I'm not a freak lol.

Hi Deborah, thanks for the message 😇 Sorry to hear about your problems but I'm glad there is some comfort in knowing you aren't the only one. That's why I make these videos it helps me too to feel a little less odd! It's hard to convey to those who don't have IBS that pain can be constant etc and come about from something so small. I think the fact that everyone's IBS is so different means that there must be so many reasons why it is caused too, so maybe it was something to do with that for you. I really hope that yours improves, it's not fair is it! xx

For me, having stomach issues for over a year and a half and being diagnosed with IBS around 5 months ago I've found something that seems to of reaaaally helped. It's called Triphala powder. Great for calming the stomach. Not sure how to tackle the windy situation tho (and I feel soz for my future husband eek)

Hi Sarah-Jane, thanks for watching :) I'll have a look into triphala powder, thanks for the heads up x

I can’t even eat fries without thinking about going to the hospital cause of pain

[@ICONICPARIS]

I have the worst spasms from my ibs. I feel like someone is stabbing me in my lower stomach. I literally drop to my knees sometimes. I usually get it at night when I'm trying to sleep. I work mornings so I usually don't sleep and I'm exhausted at work because of it. IBS is horrible. It totally takes over my entire life. I can never make plans to do anything because I just never know when I'll have an episode. I miss so many days from work. I've even tried to get on disability but IBS isn't considered a disability. Luckily I have a manager that understands for the most part. I rarely leave my home. I Pray to GOD to heal me. I'll keep praying

IBS is horrible, I just get it randomly and the doctor gave me some meds to help it. I just hate IBS :( Anyone else feel that when you have an IBS attack, you have to breath in and bend over. That seems to help the pain. It also spreads to my back and that makes me worry Can someone help and tell me if they have those symptoms again? Edit: I also worry about going out, because I don’t want to have an IBS attack in public.

I feel like bending my legs also helps. I don't wanna go out and get tested because of covid and I have really bad anxiety. The pain wakes me up in the morning and I can't go back to sleep

Instant pain and instant bowel movement - story of my life

[@msifollowrivers]

Thank you for putting this up! You kind of just confirmed everything for me. I've been tested for everything and they keep on saying ibs, visceral hypersensitivity and I couldn't understand how ibs could be painful. I thought I was the only one who had pain like what you are describing. Thank you thank you! How many days out of the week would you say you are in pain? Maybe you said it but I missed it.

[@BeckyExcell]

Hi Nicole, glad my video has helped :) Although I wish you didn't have pain :( Honestly... I get pain every single day. It is definitely worse after eating so after my main meal in the evening I am usually pretty pained :(

[@msifollowrivers]

Hey Becky! Thanks for responding back. I am curious though. In one of your videos you said you weren't able to eat sugar or greens, but on your Instagram page it's filled with things I could only dream of eating. Are you doing anything different lately that you are able to eat the gluten free sweets and such? Thank for replying! Awesome videos!

[@msifollowrivers]

Btw I love the dog pillow! I keep on thinking it's real hahaha

[@BeckyExcell]

Hi Nicole, sadly not, sugar is a big no for me still :( I very occasionally eat something (but get pain afterwards). My Instagram is filled with things that I wish I could eat too, some I can but not everything... it's something to work towards!! xx

I had to give up fruit completely and most vegetables. Seems like just oatmeal made with water is all I can tolerate. IBS messes with your head because your clothes don’t fit well and it makes you feel unattractive. I can never pick my clothes out in advance, because it all depends on my IBS. Also I have eczema outbreaks too. Anyone else have an IBS / eczema combo?

Just found this channel And this young woman’s explanations about Never knowing what size she is Looking pregnant Feeling constantly fat - that is my whole life!!! Being full forEVER Yep!!! The dictatorial nature of my ibs is something I rebel against all the time!! Or I get into a mental cycle where my mind believes that I can get rid of the awful fullness and pain by eating more- Trying different foods to see if any of them will relieve the discomfort!! I love hearing someone else talking about this !!!! Thanks😊😊😊😊✨✨✨
