I thought the same thing today (warm) and not for the first time! Thing is I had this kind of anxiety before - its moved over from one fear to this one. That's what I'm learning in therapy, how this is only partly, for me anyway, about an actual fear of getting sick. And yes I'm sure about ibs and anxiety being connected for many people. We have "butterflies in our stomach" when we're nervous - so why wouldn't the reverse also be true, ibs spasms triggering anxiety. I know this has been studied somewhat. I remember one book is, "The Second Brain"
