Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I pee a lot and I have noticed my bloating is linked with it. I get bloated when I have had to pee and held it through the day and peeing can relieve some pressure sometimes too. I think the pressure makes you think you have to pee more often and that would be the main link you refer to. In that it is like pregnancy. But I believe I have other links as well. Also drinking a lot of water and tea will help my bloating if I can pee really often. I went 6-7 times at work today and just about died on the way home. At night while trying to fall asleep I will pee several times and in the morning before I wake up, several times even though I am dehydrated. It is all very annoying!

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
