Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Support Group

Irritable bowel syndrome is a common intestinal disorder that is characterized by bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhea, cramping, and constipation. Typically no abnormalities appear during standard medical testing, and so irritable bowel syndrome is identified by the symptoms. Although irritable bowel syndrome can cause serious discomfort, the intestines are not harmed.

I feel your pain, literally!!!! I constantly use neosporin on mine...it really does help, and takes away some pain. And heals it too. I don't think there's too much we can do about it, but maybe soak in some epsom salts will help too. Just pamper yourself ok:)

when I am feeling really bad I head for the tub and soak forever! It seems that as long as I'm in the tub I am okay. I have actually fallen asleep and slept overnight in the tub waking up only long enough to add more hot water! At least it works for me...hugs jilly

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
