Josh,
I have IBS and adhesions, the IBS sounds like rhe same Thing that happens to me. But due to the adhesions, every time I feel the bloating, burping and nausia, it inflames my insides so therefore, my adhesions really start hurting severely!!!!! The adhesions feel like I have alot of open blisters inside that are rubbing against esch other and even the slight movement i get knife like jabs. I hope thishelps. If I were you, I would do some research on both of these diseases. Please e-mail me if you have any more questions. Everyone here has been through just about anything you can imagine. Welcome to our world.
