Canada I think it would be fun to play around ideas on changing the name of IBS. Although - I think I would have to vote for the Bitchy Bowel term. Priceless. Louise, everyone is just having alittle fun. We all realize how important it is for us to get better, but we are still allowed to joke around! -------------------- Lana_Marie Proud Mommy to Bentley Taylor Born May 12, 2004 9lbs, 3oz Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: We need a new name for Irritable Bowel, a more medical term!       #8468 - 05/07/03 12:19 PM Edit Reply Quote Lana_Marie Reged: 01/31/03 Posts: 1968 Loc: Saskatchewan.

On a bad day I might tell people I have both - let them try and figure it out. - H -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.

I think it is great if we try and come up with another name for IBS and stop getting those blank looks... I remember when I was first diagnosed my dad called it Irrational Bitch Syndrome.. It still makes me laugh.... I do have to say I like Bitchy Bowel..

There is a saying; A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME STILL SMELLS THE SAME by the same token ibs by any other name will still have the same problems. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!
