RE: FOR PEOPLE WITH IBS

FructMAL?

What are the symptoms? is it just bloating?
My wife gets bloating so bad she can hardly breathe. She needs to burp and release air out. She has done a breath test but that was for the Helicobacter pylori bacteria. But this is different right?
I would love to know more about this and if this is what my wife is suffering from.

Sort:  

I assume ur wife has seen a gastroenterologist, if he has performed all the usual tests (colonoscopy, endoscopy, food allergy tests etc.) and the results have come back negative, i would assume she suffers from IBS. IBS is a diagnosis of exclusion given to functional GI tract disorders. I would suggest not eating big meals at one sitting but instead, eating 3-4 small meals throughout the day this should reduce the bloating. In my experience i found that having a glass of lemon juice first thing in the morning also helped with the bloating.
I have also found great benefit from using Librax (which is an ibs medication) this should be prescribed from your doctor.
