Anyone suffering with this? If so, what are your triggers?

5/26/2011 8:01:43 AM

gluten, dairy and spicy foods. 3 things i have at most meals.

5/26/2011 9:27:44 AM

LOL. Your poor girlfriend.

Dairy and gluten are my triggers as well. And caffeine.

5/26/2011 9:28:57 AM

I have a friend with this but I think he's got it pretty well managed.

He poops a whole lot, but it's pretty much on a schedule. Like twice before noon, then once in the evening.

5/26/2011 9:30:04 AM

girlfriend? i'm a married man. i wish i had a girlfriend.

5/26/2011 9:31:16 AM

Taco Bell is my tigger

5/26/2011 9:31:36 AM

Food is my trigger...I have a spastic colon...

But yeah...anything will trigger me...especially alcohol

5/26/2011 9:36:16 AM

Great, now the thought of copious amounts of sweaty chunky dhiarrhea pouring out of sawahash's gaping asshole is going to be stuck with my for the rest of the day.

And I packed beef strogganoff for lunch.

5/26/2011 9:38:24 AM

I love that I have such an effect on you that my one post can ruin your day...I'm just gonna go on to work and have a normal day (excluding the hangover).

5/26/2011 9:39:53 AM

Never been diagnosed, but I have self-diagnosed. Mine are dairy, salads or very leafy greens, and stress. I swear I've never gotten in a plane nor started a long trip, nor gone on a first date, nor a job interview without having an upset stomach. Sucks.

5/26/2011 9:52:53 AM

all these girls talking about poop problems is getting me worked up. I might need to go into the bathroom at work and rub one out while I have IBS myself.

5/26/2011 10:04:36 AM

Somehow, about four years ago my body went through some weird freakout and I now share your pain. It's godawful. To the point where sometimes I'd rather just go hungry if I'm on vacation or at a special event.

5/26/2011 10:36:55 AM

Stabbing abdominal pains! Ughhhhhhhhh

9/16/2011 2:57:12 AM

Have you ever had anal?

9/16/2011 3:00:21 AM

No. Sounds unpleasant.

9/16/2011 3:04:10 AM

Me.

Everything.

Especially dairy, pizza, any large amount of sugar.

I'll take that as a yes.

9/16/2011 3:05:55 AM

Dairy is the worst. I miss brie.

9/16/2011 3:10:37 AM

For a long time I averaged about 6 poops a day. Now down to maybe 2. It's awesome!

so when's the next poop?

9/16/2011 9:04:48 AM

hiabatchi type foods/Chinese buffet or anything that has the "white sauce" on it.

Two cups of strong coffee

two bojangles cajun filets

Spicy tofu mix

Banana peppers / spicy peppers in my salad or on my sub.

Sometimes alcohol will. I stick with miller lite now and my stomach likes that.

THERE IS A NOTABLE TDUBBER WITH IBS THAT HAS NOT YET POSTED IN THIS THREAD

but anyway, is this a real condition or is this just another label fragile people apply to their afflictions

I don't consider that to be IBS. But when eating causes stabbing stomach pains and horrible churning followed by a need to rush to the bathroom ... that's IBS, IMO.

9/16/2011 9:40:09 AM

green apples.
