Beth,
Please don't let my post make you feel bad. I didn't intend for it too. My symptoms are not constant and the life I have with IBS is definitely better than the life with an ED. Like I said I had a mother who has IBS so I can't say for sure if mine is from genetics,my ED or stress. I've also been told by my GI that I have an extra long colon. So who knows. I guess when I am having symptoms I just focus more on it. Please, please do not let it get you down. I am basically very happy other than this and being able to live normally(other than IBS issues) around food it the greatest gift after an ED. I think the medical establishment kind of throws up their hands at IBS and as you have heard womens issues(as this mostly is)are not funded in the research area as much as other medical issues. I think having people like Heather and all of us who are brutally honest about IBS will draw more attention to this issue. There is always hope. I would never have any sort of tube or surgery for this. This person I mentioned was a very extreme case and I believe had not recovered with the ED. I don't know how bad your delayed gastric emptying is but there are also certain medications that can help that. Also the IBS diet appears to be easier on the digestive tract. Please keep positive. KateL
