Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Support Group
Irritable bowel syndrome is a common intestinal disorder that is characterized by bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, cramping, and constipation. Typically no abnormalities appear during standard medical testing, and so irritable bowel syndrome is identified by the symptoms. Although irritable bowel syndrome can cause serious discomfort, the intestines are not harmed.
IBS-c has been acting up - mainly bloating and gas, not painful.
I have been taking iron regularly - though it's the ferrous polysaccharide which is supposed to be way better tolerated than the iron salts - still, a possible culprit?
but also have been having some work stress - the arrival of Covid vaccines! I've done thousands of flu shots, so this shouldn't be so stressful...and yet it is. There's a ton of info I have to keep up on...plus extra administrative details. And also the preparation of it is more involved. It's the Pfizer - we received in thawing state.
Perhsps I'll skip iron over the weekend....
My IBS has not flared since these posts. And I have been taking iron, no
Problem.
My tummy is feeling flat and healthy, love it.
