I have had a weak, bad, unstable stomach since i was a kid...
i hardly went to doctors because they were so random.
Recently i went to a doctor who told me i had irritable bowel syndrome, so i already know what it is. I know im not supposed to eat sour, spicy hot stuff, and also coffee, tea. I had medication which was of no use. In the past, i also had a tube go down to my stomach to examine but also nothing was found.
I recently banned myself from drinking milk and eating milk-related stuff such as chocolate and cheese because i find its safer not to eat them, and also oily food/snacks.
I've also banned myself from all kinds of drinks except water, milo and occasionally apple juice.
Nothing seems to work. The pain is still unbearable, unexpectable. its going to drive me crazy after almost a life of dealing with stomach pain almost every week. No particular food triggers the pain.
I wish someone could tell me what to do, because im so stressed out, and i have a hemorrhoid as well

To continue:
I don't really trust doctors anymore cuz none of them really seem to care to have a really sincere feeling about my condition and they just seem to want to do their job and no more. I cant even convey my fear and sadness about my stomach which is hindering me from so many things and making my life so difficult and painful. Ive been to hospital when young many times and i grew to dislike n fear that place. I don't want to keep wasting my parents money and i don't want to keep imposing on people and on my own work anymore but i hate this because i cant control it and its hard for other people to understand how difficult it is to live with this problem, it would not be right to let people pity me all the time either.

I've kept a tab on my food for quite awhile now, but its really random and its on and off, sometimes it causes, sometimes it doesnt, so i don't think its due to the food that i eat, but i avoid those because it would be easier knowing what causes and what doesnt. my stomach can be quiet for a few days then suddenly comes back with severe stomachaches and diarroeahs that give me uncomfortable feelings for a few days even after that. the feeling of the stomachache that doesnt seem to want to go away and can come back anytime is really stressful..
