Extreme bloating

Yea I feel it. That's why I don't attempt to follow the fodmap thing anymore. I'd rather just put up with it since I know it won't completely go away. One thing that is weird and actually pretty much normalized my bowel movement was when I take semaglutide or mounjaro. I tried them to help with my binge eating habits and during the time I am on them, I feel almost normal. Granted I am and IBS-D kinda guy lol so the fact that those peptides slow digestion is what does the trick I think.
my latest doctor had me try amitriptyline. It’s the only medication I found that offers some relief. The worst my IBS ever got had me in the bathroom 3 to 4 hours a day. The amitriptyline slowing down something now if I’m very careful with food, I may only go one to three times a day, which is a miracle. You might wanna try that.

As far as the peptides, I’ve never actually tried any to be honest. I do need something that slows digestion. Only tried one medication in the past that does that which was called fiberzi. That shut my intestines down and I ended up in the hospital on a Christmas Eve.
 
Ibs is is a symptom of somthing , ibd is an actual diagnosed disease u could very possibly need surgery to fix.

Good to know. I haven’t gotten to the point of where I was prescribed any meds for it. Just given suggestions and recommendations for my diet and OTC meds.

But yea if it’s that bad for you, one of the GLP peptides may be worth a shot. I know it was the difference maker too because I went off and on it 4 times now and it every time I was on it, my GI issues were almost gone.

That’s really encouraging to hear. I’ll definitely look into it!!
