Darn doctors!

What nonsense - I was diagnosed before a year was up...and I got to see one of the best GI docs in this country so I think he knew what he was talking about!

My IBS developed after a bacterial infection. It's called an "insult to your gut" - a common cause of IBS - and can be anything from an infection to surgery.

Changing your diet will really help, even if it isn't chronic IBS. This diet is amazing for IBS - it's made SUCH a difference to me. ALso, a SFS will help.

What Immodium dose are you on? I took one tablet a day for a few months and it helped me to stabilise.

Btw, you might get more responses if you post any IBS or diet queries on the "Eating for IBS" board. This one's really for non-IBS stuff.

Good luck and welcome! At least you've foun this place - I didn't find it until a few months after I was diagnosed.
