Does anyone else experience lower back pain?
Just recently I have started to get horrible lower back pain. My question is , does anyone get this with flares .. before they weren't as bad. Seems now I feel like I'm stooped over from pain. doc says no way but I'm really thinking it is.

this is one the ibs symptoms, you're right, its just horrible to feel, i got the sames lower back pain a few weeks ago, and i walked one hour every day during one week, to help my bowel transit, then my pains lessened, it's more brearable.i hope it's gonna be helpful.
best healing wishes.
After almost 2 years of experiencing the monthly "flares" just recently the lower back began to ache. Unsure if the two are connected.
I have the back pain also. It is totally exhausting!
