I think I have irritable bowel syndrome?

Every time I know I have something important coming up the night before I start violently puking and have diarrhea. Every time I try to sleep I will wake up in ten minutes, sweating with my heart pounding, and breathing really fast. I really don’t feel good, i’m going to puke, I have school in 30 minutes, and I can’t miss any more days. Are there any over the counter irritable bowel syndrome medications or something. I need something I can’t do this anymore.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome? or could it be something else?

Since around February 6th to now I have been experiencing Abdominal pain(especially on lower left and right abdomen), bowel changes( constipation, diarrhea, normal), nausea(on occasion). I went to the pediatrician doctor February 18 and took a blood and urine test and nothing was wrong. Doctor suggested I just had a stomach bug that would pass quickly. I went to my university doctor March 17 and was told it most likely was irritable bowel syndrome or lactose intolerance but she was not sure and told me to see a gastreontologist (stomach doctor).
I wanted to get more information from others with IBS. I am 18 and female. I have lost weight(3 lbs) from changing my diet. Just recently( a week) I completely changed it to mostly soluble fiber and insoluble and practically no milk. I feel like my symptoms happen so often that it cannot be IBS.
Is this IBS or something else?

Irritable Bowel Syndrome…caused by depression?

I’ve been having several tests done on me, trying to figure out what’s wrong with my stomach and bowels and stuff. My gastroenterologist has been absolutely positive that I suffer from IBS. It is not caused by food or food allergies. Even drinking a bottle of water bloats my stomach to the point of looking pregnant.

He suspected that stress and depression are what is causing it, and sent me to a therapist. I’ve been seeing her for months without any improvement.

I finally had my endoscopy and colonoscopy done, only to find out that physically, I am perfectly fine. My doctor told me the only way to deal with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome is to deal with the depression.

I’ve been prescribed Xanax and Prozac to deal with this. I’ve only been on it for about a week, and I know that I shouldn’t expect any improvements so soon, but I guess I was just wondering if anyone else was suffering from this, and if anything helped them at all… I’m just worried that I’m going to be stuck this way.

I’m dreading the birth of out child next year. Poor thing. Does anyone have anythin similar?

Has anyone heard of a product called donnatal? Their website www.donnatal.com says its used to treat the symptoms of IBS (irritable colon, spastic colon, mucous colitis and acute enterocolitis). There are not many prescriptions out there for treating irritable bowel syndrome and I am curious to know peoples thoughts on this one. Thank you in advance!

"United States
Population-based studies estimate the prevalence of irritable bowel syndrome at 10-20% and the incidence of irritable bowel syndrome at 1-2% per year."

http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/180389-overview

Common as it is, in some cases it’s debilitating, and even if it isn’t, having it will severely reduce the quality of your life. I feel for the people who do have it, as I may have it myself – I’ll find out in a few weeks once the doctors have had their fun with me.

Why not assemble a team of gastrointerologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, immunologists, microbiologists, etc… and get to the bottom of this already?
We’ve mapped out the entire human genome – a cure for IBS can’t be too hard to find.
