could it be more?

I'm 19 and every morning I end up running to the bathroom 3-4 times in the first hour that i'm awake. but today, there's more... now i have anal leakage! my stomach is constantly crampt and hurts really bad. I won't even leave my house because i'm afraid of having an unexpected bowel movement. the only thing that takes the pain away, or make it easier to bare, is to smoke a bowl of marijuana. it's definitely a medicinal drug... could this be more than IBS?

I too think you need to get to a doctor. There is treatment out there for IBS, that can make you alot more comfortable.

If I were you I would go see a Gastroenterologist or even go to ER. Because instead on relying on Marijuana you might need some meds. I don't your history so I can't really tell you what it can be but i would get checked if I were you. To get to a doctor can be tricky if you anal leakage, maybe you can take some Imodium so it can stop....also if you can get someone to drive you there would be great. Well Good luck.
