The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Need help with possible IBS and PFD
I'll just go from the beginning. i used to have excellent digestive health and in the past year, my anxiety increased exponentially, resulting in more frequent trips to the bathroom. However, a few weeks ago, I fell sick after eating something I'm sensitive to, and since then, my movements have been completely messed up. My doctor believes I may have IBS and after some research, I might have PFD too.I wake up in the morning and feel the urgent need to go (which is why I thought it might be a case for sulphur). Then I'm toilet bound for four to five hours (one or two on a good day). It starts off as a normal movement for the first 20-30 minutes, and then I experience incomplete evacuation, where as much as I sit and wait and try, I can't properly empty my system. It's gotten worse, where it never feels completely satisfying now.
I've tried changes to diet, more exercise, more water. On one day, I had a particularly good movement where it only lasted half an hour and felt completely fine.
Now in terms of medicines I've tried natrum mur, nux vom, ignatia and none of its had any lasting effects. Natrum mur seemingly worked once but not since then.
Notes:
- its def. 100% stress related because when i feel better mentally, i feel better
- sometimes ill experience headaches, joint and back pains, muscle cramps after
