ok, here goes my looooong story, i hope u aren't sleeping at the end of this.
Gosh, since i'm young, i have digestion problems, i'm always bloated be it with/without eating. Some foods like milk and fruits after meals do trigger my bloatedness more often. So i guess i do have lactose and fructose intolerance. I do have gastric problems if i'm too hungry as well, and if i eat when i'm too hungry, i'll definitely be bloated after eating as well...
However, i do not have constipation problems, in contrary, i'm actually a regular in this dept.
Fast forward, somethings have changed in me, i got a fissure and internal piles, i changed to high-fiber diets and i start to have more gas which is usual and settled down after 2 weeks. After which, it's rarely that i have bloatedness. I take it that my digestion has got to be better cos i totally cut out on spicy, fatty, oily, fried stuffs or lessen my rice, flour intake (i've lost 7kg in 5 months!). i continued to take prune juice, vit c and magnesium supplements.
A week ago, i have 2 days of loose stools and i thot it's probably due to the uptake of vit c. After which, i started to have bloatedness for days now which is sooo uncomfortable and sometimes painful. I even started to have semi-hard stools MORE OFTEN. All these while, i haven't been really eating anything different, except some choc ice cream every night and some salty corn snacks... SOoo... i really do not know what's wrong with me. Despite me taking out these treats, i'm still bloated. And i think this is indigestion, and it's causing me hard stools!!!
Anyone who has such symptoms are diagnosed as IBS? or any IBS sufferers here?
