Cancer Nutrition Support · Bowel Rehabilitation

You were told it's IBS.
It isn't.

Bowel dysfunction after cancer treatment — diarrhoea, urgency, unpredictable bowels — is its own recognised condition, distinct from IBS. It has identifiable causes and a rehabilitation process that works.

Why it's misdiagnosed

It looks like IBS — it isn't IBS

Surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and hormone therapy can each change how the gut works long after treatment ends. The symptoms overlap with IBS, so it's often labelled that way — and IBS-focused approaches don't address the real cause.

What's actually happening

Late effects of cancer treatment

Changes to gut anatomy, motility, bile acid absorption, the microbiome or nerve function are all recognised, treatable contributors — assessed properly, not guessed at.

I felt truly heard and listened to. She identified a health problem I'd never been taken seriously about before.

What the Rehabilitation Process Looks Like

A structured process, not guesswork — built around what your treatment actually did to your body.

1

Assessment

Detailed review of your treatment history, symptoms and medical background.

2

Identify the Cause

Pinpoint what's actually driving your bowel symptoms — not a generic elimination diet.

3

Rehabilitation Plan

A structured, personalised nutrition and lifestyle plan targeting the root cause.

4

Ongoing Support

Follow-up and adjustment until you're confident managing independently.

Who This Is For

Anyone with ongoing diarrhoea, urgency or bowel unpredictability after cancer treatment

People diagnosed with “IBS” whose symptoms began after treatment

Anyone told this is just something to live with

People wanting a specialist who understands cancer treatment, not just general gut health
