Hello dear
I understand your concern
I think you symptoms is due to the IBS only.
Stress aggravate the IBS symptoms.
I advice to to consult the Gastroenterologist for better evaluation and undergo following investigation:
Stool microscopy and culture
Blood tests: Full blood examination, LFT, ESR, and .
Hydrogen breath testing to rule out malabsorption.
Doctor will give following advises:
Take Tablet gas-X
Avoid spicy diet , take small frequent meal rather than large meal.
Anti diarrheal: loperamide.
anti spasmodic like mebeverine and dicyclomine
Continue to take probiotics
Sublingual vitamin B12 and folic acid
Avoid stress and do regualr exercise like walking and yoga.
Hope this may help you
