I'm also new to this board. I too feel my IBS was brought on by a very stressful period. It was last summer, when we were renovating our kitchen, i.e., doing most of the work ourselves including building the cabinets (my part as I am a fledging woodworker) PLUS having events in August and September (I am an event planner). I knew at the time that it was one of the most stressful times I had ever been through in my life. It wasn't until November that I decided to see a G-E about the dramatic changes in my bowel movements. I was really worried I had cancer or something. By January, after a colonoscopy, I was dx'd with IBS. I had several stable weeks, until I had an episode a few weeks ago over a stressful incident. So, yes, I do believe this whole thing was brought on by stress and I am also concerned that I am plagued with it even when I am feeling at ease.
