My older sister also has IBS, diagnosed about 20 years ago. She manages it differently. She gets mad at people when they offer her food she can't eat. The thing is, she isn't very good about letting you know ahead of time what she can't eat.
Anyway, when I was still getting my IBS under control, she once told me I had it easier because I discovered this website. Well, I still had a lot of trial and error and time feeling miserable.
And if this website makes it as easy as she thought, I'd like to know why she doesn't try following some of the IBS diet guidelines.
Don't get me wrong, the IBS diet has helped me tremendously, but someone else with IBS telling you have it easy while they refuse to at least try it can be maddening.
