I suffer from abdominal pain and bloating from many years. Only two years ago i was diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome. I have see many doctors and only after a long trial of exams my gastroenterologist "decided" that yes, i suffer from iBS.
He said to me that is a difficult health condition to be diagnosed, because aren't clear the causes, but in the end i could have access to treatment with some efficacy. Doctor says that in my case anxiety can be the trigger of relapses and he reccommended to me a visit to a psichoterapist.
The fact is that i haven't time or energy to spend into a psychotherapy program, not after years of exams and doctors and clinics...
So for now i treat ibs with the help of rifaximin, that for me works like wonder. Half a month of treatment and i must forget my abdomen for half a year! It's an antibiotic, but one time i gone sick with a bronchitis, i was stil taking rifaxamin for my periodic treatment, and i could even take a systemic antibiotic together with rifaximin because doctor said that rifaxamin stays in the bowel and do not interfere with other antibiotics. So i feel safe with my IBS treatment for now. In future maybe i will pay a visit to a psychologist for anxiety, but i think that finding a way to manage my IBS have helped greatly to relieve part of my anxiety.
