I have had IBS for very many ears, on and off, and now suffer from this complaint much worse than ever with the added embarrassment of having to cope with some condition called Dyssergenic Defecation. I have tried many remedies without success and don't think any particular causes my symptoms to worsen, except for rich, creamy foods increase my already awful lower abdominal spasms. I also find that after manually opening my bowels ( which I have to do most of the time) I suffer from even worse abdominal pain for about an hour afterwards. I am a divorced mother and 68 years old. Was thinking of trying out Symprove liquid, or Rheal powder supplement, or Gut Cleanse (greens). But so expensive and disappointing trialling these products. Thanks.
