I've been careful and trying to eat everything right to get it solid , it's better but not stopped . I am so frustrated . So I'm with you in your misery

Eating a bowl of chili with hot dogs, when you have IBS, is suicide. Why would you do this to yourself?

I know the feeling. I was constipated for days and then I drank one cup of coffee and now I can't seem to stop going. It is so frustrating. I am either constipated or I go and go and go. Thank you for letting me share.

yup coffee can do that to me too...but right now I am ok....I had coffee this morning at Starbucks and had to go twice already but it is ok now....

I haven't had Starbucks in a couple of years because the Starbucks are at least 30minutes from where I live. This evening I had cabbage and again I am in the bathroom. It is so exhausting. Usually my IBS is better in the winter but this year it is active rather early.

Advice , hotdogs are full of nitrates , all processed meats pretty much trigger IBS .

When I cut those out my headaches also went away .

Food intolerance is what you might be struggling with / making IBS worse .

Dairy , processed meats , gluten and other food sensitivities just make IBS a rollercoaster ride .

Try going off some of those for a while and slowly introduce them back one at a time . Might find out what is flaring you .

All the best

Damn, I bet! Lol I mean, sorry I used to do stuff like that! I leaned the hard way and still not good at it. Ted

I had a ham and swiss sandwich and big glass of milk today and bang off running to toilet again.....uggh I have too much on my plate to deal with IBSD

I would say stay away from dairy! It always causes my ibsd to flare up. But greasy foods always get me into the bathroom. So stay away from greasy and oily food. And acidic foods as well!
