I’m fustrated with a condition that I have had for 7 years. it’s ruined my quality of life. I want to connect with anyone who is just as fustrated as I am. My focus is mainly on diet and I hope one day to make a routine of eating safe foods.
I’ve had this condition for many years but have just now decided that enough was enough. Hope to learn to control it better than I have been.
Currenlty have IBS and looking for people to chat with about it.
I am interested in continuing to learn more about coping with illness and hopefully help others as much as possible. I’d love to connect with those who simply need a bit of support for the day or an ear to listen. I’d love to learn more about what helps everyone!
I HAVE LIVED WITH IBS FOR A FEW YEARS NOW. ALL THE PAIN AND THINGS THAT GO WITH IT. THANX FOR A SUPPORT GROUP LIKE THIS.
Hi,
Its great to see a community of people helping people. I suffer from major depression, hypertension and IBS. I would be happy to help anyone who has questions about their illness. From my long history of depression and hypertension I may be able to make some suggestions that may help you.

Hi everyone. My name is Connie and I live in Raleigh, NC. I currently have severe IBS and GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder). I would love to make friends and help support people that deal with things like I do. Hope to talk to you all soon.
I have lived with this condition for many years. There are times when you have a lull in symptoms and you hope that maybe it is disappearing but it always comes back. Just when you get complacent!
I have had IBD-D for many years. I’d like to relate to others who understand and provide their insight to living better withis condition
Hello, My name is Suzie. I have suffered with ISB most my life. Back in 2003, I had a major belly surgery that has made everything worse. I suffer just about everyday. I would love to chat with others who have the same problem. Thanks
What symptoms do you all get with IBS?
I have suffered for 20 years, but rencently my pain has got worse.
I’m fed up with hearing doctors say…It’s only your IBS.
Maybe if they suffered with it on a daily basis they wouldn’t be so quick to say…It’s only…
My name is Liz. I am married with 4 cats. I was just diagnosed with IBS on May 14, 2007. I have been prescribed an antispasmodic, which works well, but I still struggle with the unpredictablity of this condition. I lost 6 hours of my day today with a “spell.” I would like to learn how to manage it better, if possible, instead of just waiting until symptoms hit and taking a pill.
Hello, my name is Darlene, I am 68 years old and have just been remarried for almost a year… I have 4 grown children and only my husband and my cat at home.
I am on many different meds for, High BP & Cholesterol, Dystonia, RLS, Arthritis & fibromyalgia symptoms… Also receive therapeutic botox injections for the dystonia every 3 months. I get by pretty well, but my IBS problem has increased since I was in an accident that paralyzed the right side of my diaphragm, and I received a radiculopathy to my left leg from my low back being injured also… I started losing control of both the stool and flatulence whenever there is pressure in the colon no matter where I am. Even though I am on Bentyl I still get the stomach ache I have had for years with this every afternoon… I have tried going off dairy and it made no difference… same for wheat products, etc. the test for Celiac disease came back normal. I am really frustrated… Do you have any advice or comments. Does anyone else have this problem?
I’ve had IBS for almost 9 years.
