I first got one when I was 8. But the doctor said it was only a newly known about condition and other than fibre supplements (which made me worse) he couldn't do anything. Then I went to doctor after doctor after doctor who said I was just "sensitive in the stomach". Finally my current doctor sent me to a specialist who said IBS. He sent me home with info and high fibre diet. After all the d and weight loss and anemia they decided it would be best to have a colonoscopy to make sure nothing else was horribly wrong. Hope this helps.
