I am one of those who can't point to any stressful event as a trigger. My work is stressful sometime, but I'm incredibly good at unwinding after work and I definitely don't consider it stressful enough to cause medical problems. My childhood was happy and uneventful, and I've never been abused in any form, mental or physical.
Like an above poster, I've always have a touchy digestive system, which would act up from once a month to once every 2 years, around that range.
If I were to correlate anything to when it all began, I had what I thought was a stomach bug. However, it could have been the beginning of IBS, since I can't tell the difference these days.
I've also noticed my symptoms fluctuate but they aren't connected to daily stress. I could have a great day and not feel well the next one, or I can have a relatively stressful day and not feel bad the next one.
So I think, though I'm not sure (can we ever be?) that I'm one of the post infectuous type. I think I was naturally predisposed, and something just flipped a switch. I'm hoping one day that my body flips back. That;s pretty much the only hope I have left, as I've tried everything else.
