I had a REALLY bad tummy bug in OZ Christmas 2001. Then I came home and went straight into revising for my finals - mega stress. By the time my exams came round I had IBS.

My IBS started in February of 2000. I lost my brother in an automobile accident and my symptoms started right then and there.

As far as I know, I've had IBS-C all my life. The IBS-D has come and gone over time.
Both my mom and her mom have IBS too. Ah, that's it: I don't have IBS, I have a family tradition!

That darned stress again. I lost my dad in an auto accident and lost my brother in 2000 which set me off too.

I had the flu and pneumonia and they gave me several different antibiotics. I got Claustridia Deficil and have had IBS ever since. It's been years. Now I panic when ever they say I need an antib.

I can totally relate...just the stress I cause myself from worrying about an attack coming on when I'm not close to a washroom will cause an attack. Yesterday is a perfect example...I started worrrying about getting an attack at school and then I started to get one...but once I calmed down it started to subside and I sat through the class without an attack!! Incredible what kind of power the mind has over the body!

That's it, Girlfriend! That's exactly what it's all about -- the power of the mind to control the body, the WHOLE body. When you move your arms or legs, what moves it? When you move your bowels, what moves it?
You're on the right track, Girlfriend! Good for you.

I may be unusual, but it appears I was born with IBS.

Angel and goffy6604- I didn't realize there were others on the board that got IBS from eating disorders too! I thought I was just a weirdo or something
