Tinkerbelle... Your post contained alot of info that I have come across myself...for one, ayurvedic medicine, and your openness to examining other culture's offerings when it comes to health. I am not a big fan of the biomedical (Western) model, and have always sought out other avenues for health. Some have worked, some work for others. I also believe ANXIETY is a major obstacle to IBS, and to many is a great contributor. Maybe that's why more women are living with it...(an entirely new can of worms!) I know hormones play a big part too, but I commend you for coming forward. I think most people are very supportive on the site, and sometimes posts and info comes across as angry or self-righteous, but I don't think it's meant that way. Remember--we can't hear each other or see our body language which really limits in our interpretation of the words written down. These boards are always open for friendly discussion ...as many of us, myself included, genuinely value yours!!! Keep it coming!
