Bowel prep and IBS symptoms?
Did anyone have a bowel prep for the colonoscopy procedure that seemed to make their IBS worse? I wonder if the injury from C-diff and the colonoscopy prep might have caused intestinal injury for PI-IBS?

Bowel cleanses not only that they can make IBS worse but they can also trigger a relapse since they flush out good bacteria from the gut.

Hoping not!!!
I did a bowel prep Monday for a colonoscopy yesterday. Just very grumbly now. Not enough food back in to make a difference I guess. I have waited almost a year since developing c diff before getting a colonoscopy. Both my GI and Primary Caer said it would not trigger c diff. Once the intestinal lining is healed it is healed. Doc did take some biopsies with will be informative.We shall keep our fingers crossed!
