Um, maybe you were just hungry. A growling stomach doesn't mean ibs.

Ibs means irritable bowel syndrome. It can involve cramping, diarrieah and/or constipation. Episodes can be brought on by stress or by certain foods.

Thanks for your reply.
I dont think its i.B.S that I have but my stomach makes a different and quieter noise when im hungry.
But the rest of the time it makes really strange, loud growling sounds. Its done it for years but these last few months its been worse and if im in class its really embarressing people look at me or ask me if im hungry
