Yeah i'm 16 and recently i'm going through a fit of what appears to be (after some research) IBS my stomaches been a bit more "active" as of late and it's really killing my ability to focus in class and take my time on tests. It's affecting my grades, and it has made my attendance... hmm lackluster at best. (Cutting class, faking sick, Going to the nurse, ect)
I was wondering. If I do go and by some chance am diagnosed with IBS.
Is it possible that I could talk to the school counselor and perhaps have some absences excused and what not. Also we have a statewide exam (as most schools do). I cannot imagine actually being able to take an entire 6 hour test in an almost dead silent room. Is it possible to request a private test or something along those lines? |

Hi There,
It seems that your suffering from Amoebiasis. It is a parasitic infection caused by Entamoeba histolytica. It is usually contracted by ingesting water or food contaminated with amoebic cysts. Amoebiasis is an intestinal infection that may or may not be symptomatic. When symptoms are present it is generally known as invasive amoebiasis.The bark of the Fig tree are valuable in resolving the Amoebic infection. |

|

I have suffered stomach noises for about one year i have been told by my doctor that i have IBS.
From doing a couple of things i have reduced the noises this might help anyone out there with the same problems.
stop drinking coffee replace with peppermint or fennel tea, also reduces bloating and taking charcoal tablets.
Stop drinking cows milk try soya or goats milk (taste same as cows milk)
everyone is different try what works for you.
Hope this helps |

Hi there! I understand what you're going through.. I've dealt w/ IBS all through high school. I went to the doctor and got a note stating what I had, then gave it to my counselor (he was really nice about it). I also let my teachers know... they were really great too and would let me take tests in a separate room if I needed to.
As for the exam, you can try asking either your counselor or if it is one like the SATs or ACTs, you have to jump through a lot of hoops trying to get a single room (letting them know WAY in advance, then they have to review your request, etc). You can try that though.
Also, the night before the test, maybe try eating pretty bland foods. I know I would eat pasta the night before (no cheese or anything, just plain). Then in the morning I ate a little breakfast and took charcoal (which is usually pretty helpful). Peppermints are also good to have to settle your stomach.
Hope this helps a bit.  Good luck!! |

| My stomach makes noises way too often in class as well, and it's really annoying and embarrassing. But what I don't get is that, it happened all of a sudden. I'm eating the same foods as before, and nothing has changed. My doctor says I'm fine, but my stomach won't stop making noises. it's really embarrassing. |

| I have been having the same noisy stomach symdrome, but also it seems about an hour or so after I eat lunch the stomach will start chirping and then I have the need to go to the bathroom, doesn't happen with breakfast, or supper, just the lunch issue, it is so I am afraid to eat and then go to the mall at lunch for fear I will have to locate the ladies room ASAP!!! |

I completely know what you all are talking about. I'm sitting here right now listening to my stomach make noises. I haven't investigated it or seen a doctor about it, but my theory is that it's all related to gas and excessive gas. As I said, I haven't done any research or anything on it, but I've noticed that it comes when I have a lot of gas and as a result am burping and need to pass gas. That's just my theory though because gas makes noise coming out of every other place, so why shouldn't it make noise when it's going through your stomach? Again, no idea, but that's my theory.
But I also would like anyone's advice on what to do to keep it quiet. Because I'm a college student and it's really embarrassing sitting in class and all of a sudden my stomach starts making these noises. And I'm getting to the level too where my classes are really really small (6 people or less) so they can tell it's me, and it's really embarrassing. Does anyone have any good ways to quiet it? |

| All you have to do is drink lots of water and go to the bathroom as often as possible and keep drinking water throughout the day. it works. |

| I have the same issues and am also a college student. I am lactose intolerant and taking the lactaid pill as well as drinking lactaid milk has helped a lot. however, sometimes the noises do come back after i eat certain foods, such as cheese. I will have to try cutting out certain foods to see what is causing the problem. |
