I have been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome and have been suffering for 18 months. I also have diverticular disease.

I suffer from bloating and trapped wind, mainly constipation, occasionally diarrhoea.

I have just been reading some of the comments and have seen Mintex referred to, what is it, is there another name for it. Does it help?

I am getting really desperate and have lost over 2 stone in weight.

Has anyone out there any suggestions?
