Talk to Gastroenterologist on IBS-C With Severe GAD, SAD
Asking for Self, Male, 30 years old, Samundri
I've been patient of IBS-C, with severe Generalized & Social Anxiety (GAD), SAD) since childhood. Regarding IBS, major issue is Incomplete Evacuation, stomach growling, trapped gas, too much gas. I can''t travel or sit for three hour without having gas issue. My stomach fills with gas while sitting. I need to pass gas frequently while traveling or sittiing. In the past, have taken Colofac, Rifaxa 550mg, Librax. Colofac TDS or BD makes the intestines filled with trapped gas, I can't even pass gas. To me Colofac was helpful when there are cramps or loose motion. Rifaxa 550mg TDS for two week. It improved only gas issue. Librax TDS helped in gas issue to minor extent . Regarding Anxiety issue, have taken Sert 50 to 100mg, Citanew 10, Paraxyl 20mg a day, but these didn't help much with anxiety except Paraxyl & worsen the IBS. Paraxyl improved the anxiety but made IBS-C severe. Currently taking Prothiaden 75mg daily since a week for Anxiety, and it had made a difference in IB

Its been Two weeks on Prothiaden 75mg. My IBS issues like gas & feeling of incomplete emptying has greatly improved, like it was never before. Although Prothiaden 75mg did't helped much with GAD & SAD issue. Dose of Prothiaden has been reduced to 50mg per day, which will be reduced to 25mg per day in a week or two. I'm also taking Ispghol Husk Ten gram after dinner, mixed in water or yogurt.
thanks.
