I've had it for about 20 years. I can be fine for months then get a really bad bout. Have found some foods that can spark it off, esp fresh cream...lethal! The most recent thinking is that for about 60% of IBS suffers, high fibre can actually make it worse. Hope you get it under control soon |

It seems to be a sign of the times, this IBS biz. I was diagnosed with it some years ago, after a particularly nasty period of my life. What I was going to say was that an awful lot of people seem to suffer from it. Camomile & Spiced Apple herbal tea with a splodge of honey helps; it's a natural soother for the digestive tract. x |

I had it from about 16 until 23 and it was put down to stress. When I sorted the causes of my stress out it went but that might not work for everyone:) |
