IBS has been linked to low iodine levels.

American diets tend to be lower in iodine than other countries. Our farmland isn't fertilized with iodine rich fertilizer, hence our meat, dairy and vegetables are lacking and few American regularly each fish, crustaceans and seaweed/sea vegetables. Asking your doctors to check your iodine levels for deficiencies may help or just start taking iodine supplements (avoid using table salt as the supplement since it's been linked to cardiovascular disorders).

Not food per se, but drinking four cans of Doubleshots in ten minutes tends to disrupt the bowels.

That is excellent advice, thank you!

However, I have already explored that avenue. Alas, iodine supplementation was not my personal panacea.

You'd be hard pressed to find any possible remedy I haven't tried. Doctor recommended, experimental, ayurveda, herbs, accupuncture, folk remedies , and cures from primitive tribes.

But no fisting. Thats overkill and only a temporary respite.

To even allude to such deviant activities, shows a profound lack of maturity on your part.

Iodine has no relevance from a medical stand point.

I just missed my annual anal. The date came and went.

Now, my former Ano-Recto specialist calls my home.

He says "look, I think I can still help you, come on in for a Proctoscope", but I've had it, I've heard all this before.

A lifetime of failed treatments, scores of wide, long instruments inserted painfully , time and time again. Cold thumbs and haughty attitudes.

Know what I'm saving by not going? Co-payments from hell. Medications with horrible side effects not fully covered by insurence.
Not to mention a doctor with the bedside manner of Vlad the Impaler.

I went to the doctor faithfully for years.Every four days or so, I pass a stool so large that its very evacuation defies all logic. Kind of like an elephant shit coming out of a sparrows ass.

But guess what? The same things happen when I don't go to the doctor, so whats the point?

I agree with what BEH posted, because while doctors might have good information, their beefy twinkie fingers, and cold demeanor just make things worse. Perhaps looking at assholes all day, turns these doctors into that.

It's not fun having those fingers or what I consider a torture device up my rectum, while hearing the doctor talk about his Redskins season tickets in the luxury box.

This is more proof of his sadistic like behaviors, and the bowel movements I've had after visits are even more unpleasant.

I wish my bowels could get a pardon from the President, or at least a key to the county.

I haven't visited this thread for a while and am surprised to see it has grown to 12 pages. While I am impressed by the feedback and support you are getting, I am sorry to hear so many still suffer.

Have you ever listed a typical days diet here?

Also, are you getting enough exercise? Sometimes sitting too much can screw up your digestion.

Thanks for being a Bowel Buddy. You are correct, exercise helps most for those fortunate to have an occasional bowel related event.

Diet is as well. Breads are avoided, and the Metamucil smoothies help a little bit.

Speaking of bovine stools, I'm hopeful for a nice soft mound myself.

What a buffalo or a cow eliminates is entirely different from what I eventually extract.

My hooved friends void their bowels effortlessly, never stopping whatever else they're doing, or even changing their expression.

My experience differs greatly.

But tonight I'm trying something new. Its a cocktail of several items that work somewhat; maybe together I'll achieve my long awaited rectal nirvana.


8 ounces of prune juice 8 ounces of apple juice and 8 ounces of citrate of magnesium mixed with a quadruple dose of psylium husk powder.

Any time you mess with citrate of magnesium you run the risk of having a Godorsky experience, shitting your pants at the most inoppertune times.

But the psylium should bind the stool , even as it joins the C of M in drawing water from the intestines.

Wish me luck!

In Gordo's case , such indulgence with result in an uncontrolable feces geyser.

Bloomy and I are more likely to get dammed up, Hoover style.

doc, I have read every post here, thank you very much. While I will admit some of the posts are a bit 'much,' they do make me laugh. It's good they have a sense of humor in their misery.

That being said, yes, you gave your advice to Gordo. Gordo, I'm sure, has read and not taken your advice. THAT IS HIS DECISION. There is no need to badger him (and others) if they decide not to. Your suggestions were listened to (the first one, not the proceeding 24,424). Just stop already.

If no one wishes to take your advice, LEAVE IT ALONE, will you? Stop being so condescending.

Incontinence, IBS....what difference does it make what hole it comes out of??? They are both still problems for suffers. And with you commending the incontinence poster, are belittled the IBS sufferers.

And do you realize Chapel Hill is in Raleigh/Durham, NC?

j.....who REALLY is an idiot for even trying to knock sense into your head!

That's very true, beh. And to be honest, ibs is fairly new in the research dept. I am dealing with psoriatic arthritis, which is also fairly new. There is only treatment, which doesn't clear it up 100%. And it is auto-immune, not diet related.

For ibs, it is diet control. For P.A. it is not. But docs want to blame mental status. Bull shit!

I am sick to death of everyone blaming everythng on that. It is more behavior control, NOT amental issue.

That's why I get so defensive here....ok.I going back to bed! Lol

Oh, we've been all though the fisting, and object insertion tips.

This is the first time someone mentioned a shovel.


Other suggestions include beans, various vegetables and fruits, juices, herbal concoctions, brews, elixers and potions.

I don't know how much you know about IBS.

Imagine you're at work, shopping, hanging with friends, or even involved in some intimacy.

Suddenly it feels like an entire dumptruck filled with hot tar is in your bowels , and the only thing holding back that steamy ton of boiling feces is your little bitty Schphinkter.

If you're not really quick with the drop of the trough, or more than three steps away from a suitable receptacle, the way people regard you will be altered forever.

Imagine the shame, the remorse. The ridicule.

IBS suffers receive no pity, no understanding, no tolerance.

Even our health care providers scorn us. Just wait for the next post from Anon Doc, the forums own personal physican, representing all the snideness and insensitive sarcasm we endure from those who are supposed to be here to help us.

Research? The foundation is grossly underfunded, and just like we get the bottom of the MD ladder, the researchers are equally underqualified and unmotivated.

Inducing diarrhea into hamsters doesn't seem to be accomplishing much.

Besides, my IBS woe is totally on the other end of the scale.

That was the dreaded 22 pound bowling ball. I think I have more experience in giving birth to babies than women do.

Miscavage, if it were only that simple.

The daily recommended amout of fiber is 25 grams per 2000 calorie diet.

What would you say if I told you that even with 100 grams a day my bowels don't move.

As I feel everything seizing up down there , I think of the entire family size can of baked beans, the pitted prunes, cabbage, spinach , pureed eggplant and collard greens I'd consumed, washed down by gallons of water.

And it was all for naught.

While I'm sitting there, later, trying to eliminate this biological quagmire , I'll ponder all the well meaning (and often demeaning) advice.

Miscavage, your suggestion will be saved for when that railroad car sized stool is squeezing out of my thimble sized Schphinkter.

Gordo...BEH...Onion (I just can't force myself to call you 'blooming!' lol

I don't have IBS, as you know. But I'm wondering if I might be lactose intolerant after a very unladylike event last night. After eating cereal two days in a row (with 2% milk) and last night with 3 slices of cheese then my episode, then seVERE tummy cramps ... well, you know where I'm going with this. Too much dairy.

Has anyone tried lactose-free milk or cheese? If so, is it worth me trying that?

Apparently you really aced the "unwarrented arrogance" part of the medical school exam.

Supporter, sounds like a classic case of lactose intolerance.

By all means , try the lactose free products.

Whatever you do, don't go to the doctor, until the entire medical community becomes more enlightened.

You need to get off of this anti-medical "high horse," because if your doctor is not helpful, I would suggest going to another one. Your attitude and blatant disrespect for those who have studied for years, makes it quite obvious who is limited in both creativity and intellect. Do you have a high school diploma?

Supporter, I'd recommend several blood tests through your gastrointestinal specialist.

Due to the healthcare bullshit by our president and the fucked up state of Virginia (where the republicans rejected Medicaid/care for those that can't afford it just to make a point to block everything pres tried to pass), I have no health insurance.

I spend $92 a month on lab work alone for being on Humira, which is like $500 a dose taken weekly for my Psoriatic Arthritis, and thank GOD they have an assistance program so it's free; I also spend $125 every three months for follow up with Rheum; spend $60 on medication for my BP; work PT temporary barely above minimum wage because everyone is clamouring for FT work because our economy hasn't improved like we're being lied to about ... and I need a mammogram because I'm almost 50; I haven't had one in 20 years, and I can't even afford that. Not to mention $3.59 for a loaf of bread; $4 for a gallon of milk -- you get the idea.

So please forgive me if I do not heed your advice. My anger is not directed at you (in this case). The U.S. is going downhill and what used to be middle class is now lower class, on the verge of poverty. But that's another topic I don't care to get into at the moment.

And please stop with the judgemental comments to IBS sufferers, please. Our anger toward you has been instigated by you, and it will not stop until you let up on your superiority.

Have a good evening.

Supporter you at least give me a glimmer of hope this morning, and here is to your finding out what's causing you such woes. You are an excellent bowel buddy, and while I cannot speak for others, I believe those with IBS are grateful.

The doctor has dispensed some good advice, but his attitude is sadly the norm. It doesn't matter if he's jamming a finger or probe up there, as I think he's a sadistic, lonely individual with stinky fingers.

I'm going to have a Bowel movement in a little while, and hope this isn't going to be Paul Bunyan and Babe at the same time.

Such ridiculous, inaccurate write ups, are responsible for a decline in preventative checks.

Men and women over age fifty, or forty if significant factors are in effect, should get a colonoscopy.

Supporter, I think again your intentions are admirable, but offering any types of credence to these individuals is a bad idea.

In many ways it's enabling type of behavior. Do you want to prevent people from taking care of their anatomy, or make light of years of medical school and research?

The NIH, Chapel Hill, and University of California are conducting multiple studies on IBS. The vast majority of the research, concludes that most cases have a definitive psychiatric condition as a major factor.

It's up for you to decide, do you want experts in the field, or mental midgets making crude jokes along with spreading misinformation?

Okay it appears to have been resolved. Fiber shakes, excessive sweating, and crouching down with abdominal pain has resulted in the birth of an Enterprise class sized shit.

While not officially a rear admiral, after that herculean effort, I think a honorary promotion couldn't hurt.

This post is one for the community, especially for those whom contend with bowels of betrayal. First of all you are not alone. You are not the only one whom has to avoid the funnel cake, due to it leading to a seismic event or backup of sludge.

This and other foods associated with what most associate with happiness, can in fact lead to misery.

There's no one size fits all approach, but in my opinion, avoid funnel cakes, corn, beef, bread, ice cream alone. Drink water or Metamucil instead of beer.
