More type 1–2 suggests constipation-leaning days; more 6–7 suggests diarrhea-leaning days.

This tracker calculates a daily IBS Severity Score (0–500) using five components (0–100 each). Each component is derived from your daily inputs and then summed.
Severity bands: <75 minimal, 75–174 mild, 175–299 moderate, ≥300 severe. Use trends to guide discussions with clinicians.
IBS symptoms fluctuate, and recall bias often overemphasizes the worst days. A daily log captures pain, bloating, urgency, stool type, and frequency in consistent units. When entries are recorded within 24 hours, pattern detection improves because the “what changed” question stays close to the day’s meals, stress, and sleep. This tracker converts those fields into a single 0–500 score so week-to-week comparisons remain stable.
The severity score sums five 0–100 components. Minimal is under 75, mild is 75–174, moderate is 175–299, and severe is 300 or higher. For many users, a 50-point shift is meaningful when it persists for several days. Use the component breakdown to see whether pain intensity, pain frequency, bloating, bowel dissatisfaction, or life interference is driving the rise.
Stool type uses a 1–7 scale. Types 1–2 suggest constipation-leaning days, 3–5 are closer to typical form, and 6–7 suggest diarrhea-leaning days. Urgency is tracked from 0–10 and contributes strongly to bowel dissatisfaction in the score. Over two weeks, a cluster of high-urgency days often correlates with dietary triggers, hydration changes, travel disruption, or acute stressors.
Stress is entered from 0–10, while sleep hours are compared with a 7–9 hour target range. The calculator treats short sleep and unusually long sleep as disruption signals, converting them into a 0–100 penalty. If your score rises mainly because of interference, the most efficient interventions are usually schedule-based: consistent bedtime, fewer late stimulants, and short recovery routines that reduce stress reactivity.
Trend charts are most useful when you keep variables steady for several days. Try a single change, such as reducing caffeine, adjusting fiber, or spacing meals, then watch the next 5–7 entries. If the 14-entry line trend bends downward and stool distribution shifts toward types 3–5, the change may be helpful. Export CSV to compare periods, averages, and day-of-week effects.
Clinicians often ask about duration, severity, stool form, and trigger patterns. A PDF summary plus a CSV history provides those details in a standardized format. Bring your last two weeks of data, highlight peak-score days, and note any red-flag symptoms separately. The goal is not perfection; it is actionable clarity that supports diagnosis refinement and practical management decisions.
No. It is a structured tracker that summarizes daily symptoms into a consistent score. Diagnosis and treatment decisions should be made with a qualified clinician.
Once daily is enough for most people. Logging at the end of the day improves accuracy and keeps the timeline consistent for trend analysis.
Severe indicates a score of 300 or higher on the 0–500 scale. It suggests high symptom burden, but it is not an emergency indicator by itself.
Sleep disruption can amplify pain perception, gut sensitivity, and stress reactivity. The tracker converts deviation from 7–9 hours into a small interference penalty.
Yes. Download the CSV file and open it in any spreadsheet app to compute averages, weekly summaries, trigger keywords, and day-of-week patterns.
