IBS symptoms are widely variable. They can include constipation and diarrhea. Generally, people will have mucus in their stool, but not blood. There is usually some kind of abdominal pain, with feelings of gas or bloating. Pain can sometimes be relieved with having a bowel movement. Its a wide spectrum of disease, with some people only having mild intermittent symptoms, and some people with unbearable complaints. There isn't any real definitive treatment, but there are a lot of ways to relieve symptoms. Still, it is a diagnosis of exclusion - meaning you should see your doctor to be evaluated and ruled out for other illnesses before you assume you have IBS.
