asthma, migraines, ibs       07/11/05 07:47 AM Edit Reply Quote AmandaPanda, J.D. Reged: 04/26/04 Posts: 1490 Loc: New York, New York My otherwise useless GI told me something interesting. I have asthma (pretty bad) and IBS, and he said both are functional disorders that cause problems when your healthy organs freak out. Like if you have asthma, there is nothing wrong with your lungs or bronchial tubes-- they just constrict way too hard. Same with IBS. Our insides look fine, they just overreact (or under, or both). I don't suffer from migraines (thank the merciful Lord, I don't think I could deal with one more problem ...), but the doc said they are basically caused by blood vesssels doing the same thing. He said there is a very high correlation between IBS, asthma, and migraines, so that if you suffer from one you are more likely to suffer from one or both of the other two. Hope that makes sense. -------------------- Amanda I live in the Big Apple, but I don't eat the skin Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
