Irritable bowel?: This sounds like irritable bowel syndrome. There is a slight possibility you have something more serious, like inflammatory bowel disease (e.g. Crohn's disease), but not likely without pain and other symptoms. Best to see a doctor for advice about possible diagnostic tests. Good luck!
