[@shetaz905]

Yeah, we can have water and nothing.

[@doublefeature]

@The1Americanpride1 i think healthy gut bacteria def comes into play with ibs anyway. they are most likely tied together esp considering it's such a general term. that's why a lot of people with IBS take probiotics.

[@Secretzstolen]

Ugh yea. Mine is definitely tied to stress and anxiety. But also, I had food poisoning and it triggered my ibs for like 7 months 😣🤦‍♀️. Probiotics are super tricky cuz supplements are not regulated so you don't know what you're really getting. Also you could be getting the wrong bacteria that's bad for you in there, my dr told me this. I recently found out there's antibiotics for post infectious ibs, has anyone tried it successfully? I was afraid to try it cuz one of the side effects listed was IBD, which is even worse than IBS! That's risky 😔
