Could this be IBS?

Ok, ever since last year I've been having problems. First of all I have pretty bad gas in the morning. It isn't terrible and isn't extremely painful, and usually I don't have a hard time passing it, but I've had a lot more gas than normal. Also I've been having problems with BMs in the morning... sometimes I have to go several times, and although it isn't diarrhea (except for a few times when it was full blown diarrhea, but most people have diarrhea a few times a year anyway) my BMs have defiantly been different. They're a lot more loose and smaller, as well as lighter, it's strange...

But I _only_ have these problems in the morning, after 10ish I'm always fine... sometimes I would stay home from school because after waking up I'd have bad stomach problems, and I was afraid my stomach would really act up if I went to school... so I would go back to sleep only to wake up a few hours later and be perfectly fine. I also never have these problems on weekends or during the summer, I assume because I'm always sleeping in... I never get up really early so I never have any problems.

I don't seem to be eating anything that makes my stomach act up or anything, and I really haven't had any luck in finding any specific food that when I stop eating it makes my stomach feel better. And I mean I eat the same stuff on the weekend and during the summer that I normally would during the school week, and I don't have any problems them. I should also mention I don't really experience any bad pain or nausea or a lot of really bad diarrhea that it seems most people with IBS experience... but non the less my BMs have been a lot more frequent and loose lately, something which was never normal for me...

It's weird... any advice?

Re: Could this be IBS?

Could it be? Yes
Is it? We can`t tell you!

See a dr. It definitely sounds like IBS but we can not diagnose you here. For your own good, ring up your dr and let he or she evaluate you properly.
