It wasn't until last summer while on another board "specifically" for IC (free of charge) that many of the IC'ers also have IBS. On 1/29/05 when the ambulance had to take me to the ER for severe lower left pelvic/groin pain, because I couldn't sit or stand we had to call 911. When I got to the hospital and they began running tests, one of the Dr.'s there asked me if I was aware of the fact that (and I quot) IC and IBS go hand as he crossed his thumb and index finger. I found on the other board that many of the IBS'ers also have IC. It just seemed like more of them are IBS -C. When I'm not "C" at times I end up becomming more D.
If you would like to check it out, let me know and I will provide you with that information. I'm really enjoying this site because it deals specifically with IBS where the other one deal more with IC. Their diets are quite similar to the IBS diets. So, if you need IC support, that's a link worth checking out but for the IBS, you'll get more information on this site.
I would send this link into this posting but if I remember everything I read about the rules to this board, I can't do that on the board. It's mainly women but we do have a couple of men with IC on the board as well. My email address is: time2heid@cs.com Good luck and take care. HS
