Has anyone had any of these symptoms

I have had two c-sections, abdominal hernia repair and my gallbladder out.  I have ibs.  It seem to be getting worse with my IBS.  Been to gastro and she said my problem is just ibs.  I also went to my family doctor with symptoms of pain around my bellybutton area.  The doctor said she could feel the scar tissue from my hernia repair surgery..  I don;t know if this is all true that I have ibs and adhensions.  I have pain in my lowr abdomin and belly button area everyday.  It is like a burning and pulling pain.  Whenever I eat a big meal I get gas after.  I have severe cramps, bloating and loads of gas almost everyday.  Went to my gyno and had a ultra sound done.  Everything was ok.  I am at my wits end.  The doctors don't seem to listen.

I called my gastro for a new prescription today.  Hope it helps.  I think my scar tissue is making the ibs worse.  Don;t know how to correct that problem except through surgery, but I have read the scar tissue comes back so that might be a losing battle.

What your doctor says sounds right but did she try anything to help the IBS or the pain? They should have tried to put you on some kind of a diet and maybe a stronge anti inflammatory for the pain. No one should be in pain like what your explaining thats one thing i have learned with all my issues (i have a lot of the same problems) If you not comfortable with what your doctor is telling you then i would get a second opinion. Good luck
