A few months back I was diagnosed with IBS-C. I had constipation and bloating which nothing would help, along with frequent abdominal cramps. Some days I could not do up my clothes and looked several months pregnant. Changing my diet and drinking water made no difference.
Looking back, I now realise it started soon after I stopped taking a low dose of antibiotics which I had been taking for nearly 7 months (for acne). Someone recommended a probiotic on here, but it wasnt in stock, so the assistant recommended Bioglan Biotic Balance Ultimate Flora instead. After reading the reviews on the Boots website, I thought I'd give it a go.
Have to say, after two weeks of little change, things have now improved massively. I feel better than I did taking the laxatives/IBS drugs prescribed and would say things are almost normal. Obviously it could be a co-incidence, and it's also possible things will flair up again, but thought I would share this with you as I know there are lots of people on here with digestive problems.
