Have a questions for you all. I have scolisis quite badly (a 45degree curve where there should be none  ) Have seen a chiropractor regularly for several years who has been a big help to me. However, when IBS hit me in earnest about a year ago, he said where my severe curve is, that those nerves are the ones that go directly into my colon and so he is convinced that the scoliosis is causing my IBS. He doesn't feel stress is an issue for me, nor do I. I read all these different posts on how stress seems to be such a huge factor in so many IBSers, but I don't have that. That's why I hate to get caught up in very many antidepressants that may help IBS as well, because I'm not stressed and prefer not to be on a lot of drugs. When my chiro. mentioned the scoliosis, it kind of made sense and he worked rather intensely with me for a couple of months last winter, and although it did seem to help, it never really got me as stable as I wanted to be; hence, I went and saw my med. dr. and she prescribed librax, which has helped some, but not the way I was hoping. Anyways, just wondering if any of you have scoliosis and if you've heard that that may be causing your IBS.
