ok there is a $15 glass toy I was buying for vaginal use because it would work and is so cheap its on the 50% off sale..I have severe ibs it interferes so much my life is being stuck in the bathroom all day then working a few hours and going to bed. I was wondering wat effect the toy and lube could have on my severe incomplete evacuation problems if it would help me go..I just want to try it a little I'm not doing this anal thing for pleasure. I'm so bloated and look pregnant 24/7 so just regular sex is uncomfortable..if you have the anal health pleasure book could you take a look for me and see if ther is anything about ibs in it? the toy will definently get mucus and matter on it as I never have a complete movement even after being in there all day..its piece by piece,stuck pieces I have to get out or they won't come out no matter how long I sit or push..
Severe Irritable Bowel and using a glass toy? warning "graphic,gross"

Well what is the cause of your IBS. I mean there are different reasons why people develop IBS including food allergies, diet, and certain illnesses. Have you gone to a doctor for it? And are we talking about clinical diagnosed IBS or self diagnosed? By what you describe it sounds like you are having food allergies and maybe need to work on your diet.

yes I'm going to work on my diet starting now I'm so sensitive to foods. Its not allergies but the ibs symptoms cause me to have to eat low fat diary free(I'm not even lactose intolerant) I'm on this site link
but I'm not on here to argue with anyone just FYI and don't want to discuss more about my ibs Its not something I like to talk about much and I have the helpforibs books they are great.I'm getting on the diet I came on here to ask about the toy and if there was any info on the pleasure any healthy book about ibs
yes I suppose it sounds similar to allergies but its your symptoms and over reaction to digestive stimulant foods I ca n't have pop or caffeine give me cramps or problems w hen before I had IBS I never had a problem with any food never any allergies.
ok enough of that lets get to what I asked about

Anal toys won't be much help with your IBS problem. Try to go on a daily WILD RICE diet (1/2 wild rice + 1/2 plain white rice combination). I have a slight constipation/IBS problem. Ever since I switched to eating the fibrous WILD RICE combo instead of white rice only, my digestion system is operating normally and smoothly. Or maybe eat ACTIVIA yogurt daily will help.

You know being a vegan really really helps with all of that I was a vegan for about 3 years and it always cleaned me out.

I can't have dairy of any kind it really messes up mysystem makes my gut churn and burn and messes up my bm's even more. I'm a sever case of ibs and must heavily modify my diet. no red meat,no caffeine,no alcholo no dairy,low fat...low insoluble fiber any fruits and vegtables cooked to a mush or blended very very well,well I blend strawberries after I cut the seeds off because ther is so much fiber in the seeds and causes spasms and more problems for me.
I did try the activia it was a disaster..also tried probiotics did nothing for me. I'm really sensitive to medication actually makes me worse I won't take pepcid ac or cold medicine or anything ever again unless its life or death or I'm really ill or somethin. being sensitive to medication is common in ibs
Before having ibs I never had a problem with anything.

I would say that if you have severe IBS I'd talk with a doctor about it before using any kind of anal toys. I'm pretty sure that how the others are saying, it'll likely just push things up more.

no need to talk with my doctor I think a toy can work maybe a small plug or putting a toy in a little way maybe it will open things up a little more for me to push things out better?

I have IBS and, although I like anal sex, I realized just this week that I cannot indulge in such activities. I have had awful diarrhea and gas ever since my anal play. I would talk to your doctor about it, if you are comfortable to do that. If not, I would suggest not going down the anal path (no pun intended).

If my IBS is acting up (and it has gotten about 99% better after years with absolutely NO dairy, no yogurt, no cheese, nothing from a cow's udder at all) I decline ANY anal action, because it does get things moving, but not necessarily in a pleasant way if I'm already cramping. If my gut is doing well, anal will definitely trigger some..um....action, but not immediately and not unpleasantly. Never had any issue with anything ON him or any toys, but I've been nearly recovered for over 10 years. I only have occasional symptoms, usually when I've accidentally been exposed to ANY dairy or other food intolerances, (which are different than allergies. There's no way to do scratch tests for intolerances. You just have to eliminate a food for several MONTHS to see how you do.)
I'd say if a glycerin suppository doesn't completely clean you out, and a regular enema doesn't either, I doubt an anal toy will either.
IBS effect the ENTIRE digestive system (your stomach filling can cause a Gastro Colic reflex and provoke the runs within minutes, nerves in the lower bowel being over or understimulated, a block in the intestine only allowing liquid though, but actually being caused by high colon constipation, these things can usually be diagnosed by a Colonoscopy, and the prep for the Colonoscopy WILL clean you out completely) not just the last few inches, so I can't really see that a toy would help.
But, if you are set on using it, I'd wait until you've been symptom free for a week or so, and then be gentle.

I wonder if you just have weak rectal muscles and it's cause you to not be able to hold anything in? I mean just a thought but it sounds like it could be something different then IBS. And a lot of doctor slap a label on something if your symptoms are sorta in the same ballpark. It just sounds odd that no medication is working for you and that you have to go a little at a time. This also may sound really weird but have you ever had a stool sample analyzed by a doctor. Parasites cause IBS and are unaffected by the standard medications prescribed for IBS. It's worth a shot to better understand what going on. Parasites cause bloating, stomach cramps, poor digestion, and feeling like you have to go all the time. I know it's a freaky thought but anything to help you figure out what is going on.

I can relate to the no insurance thing it sucks royally. It's called a colonoscopy where they take a look up there. They are looking for signs of colitis and deformations usually when it comes to IBS. One question, have you ever been tested for anemia? Diet will probably be the most helpful, it's hard with no insurance.

I didn't quite get to reading through all the posts because I'm sort of in a hurry but I'll check back tomorrow-first of all you're saying you have problems going, as in like, you can't go? If that's the case try adding vitamins and fiber to your diet. Also, changing your diet may help. Unhealthy diets full of fried foods and fat are often the culprit for IBS. I would also be careful what you push into your rectum if you're having problems going-your walls could be irritated already from it.

One thing to remember is that some things that might be good for anal health might not be good for anal health for someone who has IBS issues. Since you're dealing with digestive issues with the IBS I think it could be entirely different. Of course, you don't have to take anyone's advice on here, but I just can say that for myself I would not feel comfortable without talking to my dr first if I was in this situation.

You may have tried this already but I read that taking psyllium daily helps. It did the trick for me. I stir a tablespoon in water and drink it.
I used to have attacks with annoying frequency. My entire abdomen cramps up and all I can do is stay motionless until it subsides. This could be five hours. Plus all the other digestive symptoms. Potato chips trigger it for me. So does eating large amounts of fruit.

I haven't been to this site, yet. My IBS is in some kind of "rest" unless I eat the wrong thing or don't take care of myself etc.

have you heard of helpforibs.com? I bought the books I love that site. I'm going to get right on working on my diet until I get better It could take a long time for me because of the severity over the years.
I'll have to check it out. I took a good many drugs for IBS, and the only one that helped at all was Bentyl, (it helped the pain more than anything) and, believe or not, some of the meds I take for my migraines. (Some of the same neurotransmitters involved in IBS are also part of the migraine spectrum.) I have to stay away from Imodium, because it sets me on a week long IBS extravaganza! Sometimes I take it if we're going to have anal sex, and I'm not 100% physically ready for it, but am mentally, but I also find if I take the one with the "anti-gas" ingredient (a form of silicone) it isn't as bad, if I only use a half a dose. I'm like a child with most drugs, I can only take small doses and tend to get side effects really easily, too.
I agree, psyllium makes me sick as a dog and I can't even leave the bathroom. My GI doctor (who I haven't had to see in years, now) said he takes ALL his IBS patients off dairy, shellfish and peanuts, just as a precaution and has seen a lot of improvement. I have found it may be weeks or months off of certain foods before I see improvement. Shellfish would literally kill me, as I have a full anaphylactic allergy, but the dairy is a "mild" allergy AND a severe lactose intolerance, but it took a full year of NO dairy before I noticed permanent improvement.
Unfortunately, ANY food causes bloating in me. I wake up with a pretty flat belly, and anything other than water triggers the bloating. Maybe I'm "Food Intolerant." LOL!

Thank you PGel! clam is a shellfish right? I made an ibs safe recipe off that site called clam chowder I tried it twice to make sure..each time my ibs was REALLY severe after eating it. I know its not an alergy because before Ibs there was no food I had a problem with,that I know of. Do yo do good with shrimp? I buy a brand called pure and natural..Yea for some just the act of eating causes bloating...I can't wait to start on this diet and see if my bloating goes way down or even goes away I want to have a sexy flat tummy! psylum makes me sick and I cant eat things like pineaple or peaches or apricots it seems...for some reason carrots are a very safe food especially well cooked I heard from alot of ppl with ibs..but for some reason I think carrots just don't like me. I took amitiza seemed to help some but didn't like I almost had an accident at work while I was on it..seems taking no meds only fiber supplements like benfiber powder and fibercon oh ya have u heard of acacia? u need to check it out on that site!
