I came across this site while researching IBS information. Boy, I could really use some help.

I have never been diagnosed as having IBS but my mother has it and I'm experiencing everything she has gone through over the past years.

I seem to have the urgency kind of IBS where I can feel completely fine and then bam, out of nowhere, I HAVE to find a bathroom. Then, once I go, there are several trips to follow. It's so embarrassing.

What I really hate about it is that I can literally turn it on by just thinking about it. I can be somewhere, have an episode and then whenever I go back to that same place I will think about what happened there before and bring it on again.

Or if I have to be somewhere at a specific time it stresses me and it starts things up. It is getting to the point of taking over my life. I'm finding that I'm not attending certain events because of a long car trip or lack of bathrooms.

Please help!
