Thanks for your kind words, Marilyn. However I am the person whom you recently advised in the Hypno Forum that hypno may not work for me since I have tried a few times before without any results - both with Mike's CDs and with two hypnotherapists trained to tackle IBS.
One of the peculiar issues I am facing is not knowing whether my IBS is 'different' in some way than others' IBS, because I had an eating disorder, so I am not sure if the malnutrition, etc caused some type of irreversible damage to my digestive function.
I do feel things are working a little better now that I'm at a healthier weight, so that does give me some encouragement. And I am seeing an osteopath who is far more knowledgeable about IBS than any of the GIs I've seen (she is well read up on Drossman, etc). Osteopath is a type of body work. When she works on the tissues of my gut, she says it feels a lot better than when I was underweight.
And I am continuing to do stuff like yoga to help manage stress.
