What causes them to be bad for IBS?
Not to be too gross or anything, but the main issue here is constipation.

I was diagnosed with a variation of ibs. im ment to stay away from fatty, spicey and acidic foods, but was wondering about alcohol. if i can drink any what is the best, i dont think i’l be able to deal with it if it flares up really bad again. thank you.

I was diagnosed with diverticulosis, after a colonoscopy. The symptoms I have are chronic constipation with bloating. I see that the symptoms are the same for IBS. I am wondering if there are two different names for the same condition?

I suffer from IBS, and it is really starting to take it’s toll on my social and family life. It only really affects me when it’s time to leave the house (when my adrenaline levels are elevated), and it is making me miserable. I haven’t been out to eat with my hubby and kids in a couple years at least, because the "flare ups" make me miserable and shake and sweat and I can’t possibly eat. I don’t have health insurance, so a doctor’s prescription isn’t an option. Are there any supplements that I can take or "home remedies" that will help me? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I’m willing to try just about anything to get my life back!
I’ve had this problem for most of my life, but it has gotten significantly worse since I had my gallbladder removed in December of ‘04. It is much more painfuul now (to the point I feel faint).

Now i know citalopram is usually used to treat depression but i have been given it to treat ibs. Does anyone know if this is true?
