I noticed that a lot of people have thought their ibs was made worse by anxiety. I have taken citalopram having problems with anxiety attacks.I also have epilepsy .At the end of the scans that I had,investigating the pains,I was told that my adrenal glands were mishapen and well,not working properly.I am wondering if this because all the non-epileptic seizures in my past.I was wondering if anyone else has had non epileptic,or epileptic seizures  in their histories?
