Hello all! I have been seeing numerous docs for most of my life for what they call IBS. I have believed them in the past about this diagnosis until I have had a number of docs diagnose me with inflammation of the intestines when they palpate my abdomen. The last doc gave me celebrex and it seemed to calm it down quite a bit! I am very concerned becuase inflammation is not suppose to be a symptom of IBS. I am curious if my constipation could be causing the inflammation? It seems that most people with IBD have diarrhea...Is that true? I have also had a small bowel follow through where they saw no inflammation and a sigmoidoscopy where they saw nothing weird. AHHHH - any ideas? Also - could food intolerances cause inflammation? Any help would be great! Thanks so much!
