What are the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome?

CBS News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook spoke with Dr. Mark Pimentel, a leading gastroenterology expert from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, whose research is uncovering roots of irritable bowel syndrome.

Abdominal discomfort...more like gut-wrenching agony and central nervous system havoc. I’ve had two children, and I’d prefer to go through labor and delivery than go through the agonizing gut pain that comes with IBS! Soo thankful to have found Dr. Pimentel!!

Wow!! You don't even need to take the IBS test, just take the drug for IBS! Some doctors are sooo kind xx

This is amazing to hear. I started getting these symptoms this year after a really bad case of food poisoning and I was so scared. And the American healthcare system being the dumpster fire it is, it’s taken me forever to get a referral, find a doctor who can see me sooner than 2024, and even reach a person on the phone. All the while hoping it’s a simple fix and not something more serious. If what I have is what he says it is, it’s such a weight off that there is a non-invasive tear and a cure.

Most people with intestinal problems need to deworm. I was DIAGNOSED with GERD, IBS ADHD. I was farting and burping all the time, thought I would need my appendix removed.
(Like my mom and some of my siblings). Ended up having emergency gall bladder surgery (like my mom and several of my siblings). Nearly died.

Doctors made me swallow some barium crap and scanned my abdomen, told me I needed more fiber as I was severely constipated. My belly was so big I could not reach my hands around it.

Woke up with a sense of needing to cleanse. I did an herbal deworm. Dewormed my kids too. Two weeks later, my 18 month old daughter passed a clump of roundworms the size of a goofball into her diaper and another one. two weeks after that. My older child also passed parasites. Both were in the 95%-tile in growth. I passed six leeches between 3-7 inches long. Then I passed thousands of pods with baby leeches inside. Terrifying.

Appendix discomfort went away. Still could not lose weight. I prayed about it and heard, "stop eating corn." The next week at the movie theatre I got popcorn, then vomited it all up immediately. Apparently, 95% of all corn in the USA is GMO. It produces ROUNDUP.

I stopped all corn, took my kids off too. At 11/13 both fat too. I was 300 pounds.

My youngest lost 45 pounds. All her joint pain went away. She could run and play like a normal kid. My oldest lost 35 pounds. Both kids Asthma went away. ADHD massively reduced. I lost 100 pounds. My stomach flattened.
We stopped all synthetic food colors as well, so that is a huge part of ADHD.

For me most signs of aging disappeared. My skin started smoothing out again.

Also,
Joint pain joint (inflammation was starting to form osteoarthritis in my knees): GONE.
Ankle swelling: GONE.
Adult acne: GONE.
Neuropathic pain in my feet (felt like I was walking on nails each morning): GONE.
GERD: GONE.
IBS: GONE.
Constipation (only pooping once a week): GONE.
Brain fog: GONE.
Bad moods and irritability:GONE.
ADHD: gone, mostly.
Asthma: GONE (until Covid hit, but we

My identical twin refuses to stop eating these things. At 350 pounds, pre diabetic, using a CPAP to breath, all the aforementioned issues plus high blood pressure, plus depression and other mental health issues... I'll likely be getting a funeral notice sometime in the near future. Won't listen to me, despite my reclaiming my health.

Health is a choice mate.

Dear IBS community, have you ever observed if we are in hurry or if we are supposed to complete any target in time may it be simple cooking or any simple task in time... Due to even simple worry our stomach contracts. And doesn't feel like relax stomach... We have to observe this very carefully, ....I think this is the reason.. it starts feeling abnormal, ..

For that meditation, stressfree no time bound commitment, slow and peaceful working style.. rhythmic pattern of breathing is very necessary to keep brain gut in sync..

I had this IBS 3 YEARS BACK resolved in 2 months then again 1 year back... Again resolved in 1 month and now since last 2 months... Resolving slowly .. since last 3 days....❤
