What Should You Do If You Think You Have IBS?
But first, you must go to your doctor! Why? Because you need to make sure the diagnosis is IBS rather than other bowel conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease and cancer which require completely different treatment. Not been yet? Well go and get it checked out!!!
Actually, before you go find out a bit more about it first as you can then ask the questions you want answers too!
If you have IBS symptoms, your doctor will likely run a few tests to make sure the diagnosis is correct and you will be able to find out about these below. They will then be able tell you if its Irritable Bowel Syndrome or some other bowel condition.
So you have these tests and your doctor then tells you it is Irritable Bowel Syndrome, but that’s it, nothing to worry about and off you go!
Great, you then think to yourself you have a condition that’s not life threatening, a condition that won't shorten your life, a condition that isn't infectious and there’s no treatment right? Wrong! There is treatment available for IBS symptoms so where do you go to find it?
You ask your doctor of course! They start you on a high fiber diet and give you some pills to take and off you go again, but it didn't work. Does this sound familiar to you? I bet the answer is yes. I'm not knocking your doctor, this treatment option might have helped some sufferers to gain control, but its likely to have only been achieved by chance rather than by tailoring to your needs.
So What If Your Symptoms Don't Improve?
So, what if you are one of the many IBS sufferers whose symptoms didn’t go away with this advice? What do you do then? You go searching in books, you read magazines, you go on the internet, you look for any advice you can get. Does this sound familiar too?
So you find some information, but how do you know what is good advice and what isn’t? Well this is the big question I would like to help answer for you. As a UK consultant physician and gastroenterologist I have over 18 years experience in managing symptoms, so on this site you are getting REAL HELP and ADVICE.
Secondly, this website is not about me, its about you and the many other sufferers like you coming to IBS Help Online to obtain help for their IBS symptoms. Yes, this site is absolutely unique. You are not only getting medical advice, but you are also getting online help and advice from fellow sufferers.
How? Well its very straight forward, you just ask for help by entering your stories in the forums at the bottom of the webpages. So, if you want to help about your diet for example, go to the bottom of the diet page and write away. If you want to ask how others deal with their symptoms or give advice to others, just go to the bottom of the symptoms page and write away! Then just wait for the replies from other sufferers, its simple as that!
Yes, we now know its common and this is why it is important to make contact with other sufferers and share the best options for YOUR SYMPTOMS, simple as that! So this is why you have the opportunity to discuss your problems with other sufferers here.
