hey everyone!

Well, its been an interesting month. I had a stomach bug about a while ago w/ some vomiting and intense diarrhea. wasnt fun :( But, after that, I've been MUCH better. Like, all my stools are absolutely normal, like, REALLY normal. The only IBS resemblance ive had is this weird "oh my gosh i HAVE to get to the bathroom now" accompanied sometimes by bad gas and gurgles...but then nothing comes out at all or its completely normal. I still have problems tolerating some foods but thats to be expected. I just wonder how a stomach bug would help my IBS! Any thoughts? And what is that weird urgency thing? Does anyone else experience that?

Much Love,

Blondie

wow, yea!!!
i have had the urgency issues too--i once body checked my husband to get to the toilet (he is much bigger than i--but poop don't wait!!) mine is linked to gluten though...
i read somewhere that the painful urgency is like getting a charley horse in your colon, it seizes up with a ton of pain and instead of the colon contracting and holding the waste it just lets go... i thought that was a good description...
i hope you continue to feel better...
