Hello,
Thanks for your query.
I appreciate your efforts for medical consultation in so much distress.
IBS is a chronic disease with frequent exacerbation and remission. Its symptoms frequently exacerbate with stress, anxiety and depression.
So, regular sleep wake cycle and reduction of stress from life is important for treatment.
Do you have increase frequency of urination also?
Tell me if you have any of the following symptoms to help you better:
Anxiety, nervousness, restlessness, mild irritability, excessive worry regarding own health, tremor, muscle spasm, heaviness in body, easy fatigability, headache, sleep disturbance, palpitation and dry mouth.
Wish you good health.
Regards,
