Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

I have been reading the message boards here for a couple of months, but this is the first time I have posted. It is such a relief to read other people's stories and how they deal with IBS. I have suffered from IBS for 20 years and it runs in my family so I have always thought it was something I just had to live with. It actually has gotten worse for me as I have gotten older and I think that has alot to do with the mental aspect of having IBS. I tend to worry more now or maybe it is just from years of experience of being caught places without a bathroom and having to go NOW. My husband has heard that so many times over the years and God Bless him, he has become an expert at finding a bathroom for me and fast. I accidently discovered Heather's book several months ago and it has changed my life. We live on an American Base overseas so many of the soy products I cannot get right now. Luckily I can get soymilk. I am looking forward to going back to the states so that I can try all the wonderful products you all talk about. I just wanted to let you all know how much I enjoy reading your ideas, stories and recipes. I also admire how supportive you are of each other.
