I AM 60 YEARS OLD AND REALLY SUFFERING WITH SEVERE I.B.S. THE PAIN IN MY LOWER LEFT ABDOMEN IS UNBEARABLE. I AM CONSTANTLY CONSTIPATED. I AM USING LIBRAX, BEVISPAS, PROBIOTICS AND MOVICOL OFF AND ON. I AM ALSO SUFFERING FROM ANKYLOSING SPONDILITIS AND HYPERTENSION AND HIGH CHOLESTROL. I AM ON TREATMENT FOR ALL OF THE ABOVE INCLUDING GETTING REVELLEX INFUSION FOR THE ANKYLOSING SPONDILITIS. I HAVE BEEN FOR PLENTY COLONOSCOPYS AND GASTROSCOPYS WHICH LEAD TO NOTHING. I ALSO SUFFER FROM SEVERE DEPRESSION BUT IS ON TREATMENT. I AM ON THE VERGE OF COMMITING SUICIDE DUE TO THIS UNBEARABLE PAIN IN MY LOWER LEFT ABDOMEN. ANY SUGGESTIONS THAT CAN HELP ME. THANKS
