Gall Bladder or IBS

When ever I eat, doesn't have to be fatty I get loud intestial gurgling and then diarrea (diarrhea), I'm thinking IBS or gall bladder. I do have gall stones that were seen on an ultra sound years ago.

Hi!
What you have is probably chronic diarrhea. Chronic diarrhea can be due to parasitic infestations.  Other causes are irritable bowel syndrome, celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, malabsorption syndromes, pancreatic diseases, diabetes, hyperthyroidism etc. If celiac, Crohn’s and other problems have been ruled out then lactose intolerance and IBS are the possibilities. Gas in stomach, burping, diarrhea all go in favor of IBS. Pancreatic enzyme disorders, liver dysfunction, HIV, cancer of the gut, and infections by parasites other than giardia can all cause persisting diarrhea. Lyme and lupus are other possibilities that present this way. Please discuss this with your doctor (GI doctor). Hope this helps. Take care!
