It seems to me that eventually what we call "IBS" is going to turn out to be various conditions, allergies, infections, etc., that have similar symptoms. As medicine gets better at recognizing and diagnosing those other ailments, they get peeled away from the IBS diagnosis. That's why, although I swear by Heather's diet, I also know it doesn't work for everyone and have always believed that if you don't get any relief from it in six months at the outside, you need to look elsewhere for the answer.
It's good of you to share your experiences in discovering what some of those other conditions could be. I'm glad you're feeling better and thanks for the info.
