Re: They say there's no cure for IBS, but...       05/03/11 02:11 PM Edit Reply Quote mavera Reged: 12/28/10 Posts: 108 Loc: The Netherlands I've read that post infectious IBS cán recover completely in up to 50% of cases. My hypnotherapist/former GI also confirmed this statement. The good news is that patients whose IBS is post-infectious have a more optimistic prognosis than those for whom the origin of the IBS is unknown, as it is estimated that approximately half of all IBS-PI patients will return to a state of healthy digestive functioning. The bad news is that it may take years. Recovery is less likely to happen if there is co-existing anxiety or depression, thus treatment of these emotional symptoms becomes an important health priority http://ibs.about.com/od/symptomsofib1/a/IBS-PI.htm Actually, this is my most important 'positive thought', when I get frustrated with symptoms or the diet etc. -------------------- PI-IBS-C/A nausea & very bad gastric pain meds: lansoprazol+macrogol started EFI +FODMAPs 1/2011.
