So I am here to ask this one question, what are you waiting for? Below are a list of IBS user review and comments: Thanks for your excellent website :-) I've been suffering from what all doctors have referred to as "IBS" since i was 14, im now 22 so i'm getting pretty fed up! All doctors I have seen have been compeltely un-helpful, tellinf me that it's just because im stressed, one even told my mum it was her fault i was ill because she has been too over-protective?! I've been given the usual medications, imodium, anti-spasmodics and peppermint capsules which haven't done any good. I had always had my suspicions that the antibiotics I took for acne when i was 13 had something to do with me starting to feel ill. I took antibiotics daily for almost 2 years. No doctors have listened to me when i tried to tell them that I thought this had caused my problem, one actually said "yeah it probably did" without the offering any sort of adivce to reverse the problems the antibiotics had caused! Having now done excessive research myself I now believe that the reason iv felt so ill is because the yeast has overgrown in my body and I have limited good bacteria. My only worry is that having been ill now for 8 years, thats given the yeast a hell of a long time to over-grow!!! I have decided to begin the anti-candida diet, ive done it for 3 days so far and i'm already seriously craving sugary things and bread!! Do you think that sticking at the diet for 1 month will still be enough given that iv had this problem for 8 years?? Anyway, thanks for sharing your story, it definetly is inspirtational after spending time with doctors who keep telling me il never be cured, its nice to actually hear stories have people who have managed to resolve their problems :-) Your Story: I have been an IBS sufferer for almost a year now. For the first four months I didn't see a doctor or know what to do. I had constant and chronic pain in my lower abdomen. I thought food would help me and so I ate whatever I could, but nothing helped (as I know now, it probably made it worse). I went to a doctor and she didn't help me at all. I have tried all sorts of things from fiber to change of diet to peppermint pills and other pills and although things help a little bit on certain days, nothing has helped go from bad to better...it's just bad, better, bad...one day at a time, and I hated it. Almost every day I wanted to cry. My parents and my family have no clue what I go through each day, and even though I try and explain it there is no way anyone can understand what it's like to have a GI tract you want to rip out of yourself. I know that I never would have understood it if I wasn't going through it. I continue to search the internet for solutions and I have found this site. Though I don't know what it has to offer, at this point I am willing to give it a try, as I'm running out of options it seems. I'll let you all know how it goes! Your Review/Comment: I'm a 26 year old female and my GI problems took over my life 2 years ago. In the last year, I've been through a buffet of tests, had my gallbladder removed, and I've been on numerous medications. I haven't been able to eat a regular diet for any length of time and now I simply dread eating and the consequences that follow. I also had to give up running as a regular part of my life and while I still aim to exercise, it's extremely difficult to plan workouts when i never know how my bowels will act. My problems initially started with extreme bloating and gas along with diarrhea and only occasional constipation. Now, my symptoms are mainly constipation. I started taking mirilax once a day recommended by my doctor. This helps but I'm looking for a healthier, more long term solution. I'm going to give the one month diet plan a try and am hopeful that it will help me.
