Thanks for posting your query.

You are probably suffering from irritable bowel syndrome.
You can get come relief with a course of rifaximin and Librax and Ibset.
Few tests need to be done and that includes complete blood count, stool analysis, thyroid function test, test for celiac disease/small biopsy and a colonoscopy.
The bloating could be due to functional dyspepsia. You may get relief with medications like lesuride.

Thank you doctor. I have few questions.
Is irretable bowl syndrome completely curable? what causes this? what type of food need to be taken to avoid this in future?
What would be the course of rifaximin and Librax and Ibset? i.e. how many tablets per day to be taken and at what time (for how many days). Also can I take lesuride along with these?
