Hello Margaret,

You know IBS can give you some really freaky symptoms.

If you are worried it is cancer, do get it checked out by a doctor.

But I have felt the same way many a time. I had chronic IBS for years. These are all my symptoms: sickofibs.com/ibs-symptoms/...

And I have finally beaten IBS. So it is possible. Have a look around my blog for inspiration.

Alison;)

I know how that feels. When I leave my house I have to carry extra clothes with me just in case I have a accident at School.
