Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi, My name is Meme I live in San Diego Ca. and I think I have IBS. My age 45, and for the last year I have had lots of problems with my stomach. Going to the bathroom a lot bad smells, gas, and feeling sick. I have been so depressed I have wanted to kill myself. I have two children and a husband and I have been trying to hold on for them but it has been hard. We do not have insurance and I have not been to a doctor in two years. Well I am seeing a phy doctor and am on anti-depression pills, but this stomach thing is really bothering me! And I am going to school to become a Massage Therapist so life is looking better, but I do need help. I don't know anything about this condition, I have just heard about it and said to myself I might have IBS. As I am writing this, my stomach is graling? and I don't know why?

I am scared to eat anything so I just drink water all day and hot tea. I know that workingout is good for you so I run five miles a day and do about 150 jumping jack, but again this does not even help. I don't have any friends so if anyone could help me, please do. Thanks Meme
