I do have IBS. But my pain and aches are mostly in the mid to lower back. And of course in my whole abdomen. It is the most agonizong pain that I have ever experienced. It wakes me up at night and I cannot nor do I want to function outside of my home. Medications and diet changes have not helped. Can anyone suggest anything else to help?

IBS pain

I have severe pain in the lower back and stomach also. I do have IBS and DDD. I received injections to help with the DDD. The only thing I have found that helps with the IBS is drinking Danactive once a day. My pain gets severe enough all I can do is cry and I have a high tolerance for pain. I do take vicodin when the pain is just to much, other than that I have found nothing that helps.
