Hey this is my first time at this. I just got out of the hospital in Dec. I went in 3x and a lot of test to find out I had IBS with ovian cyst and my bowls where growing to the side of my wall inside. I am having a hard time dealing with all of this and I found this site. I was told 2days ago I have to change my diet completly. I think I have had this for 2 years but since I dont have my gallbadder taken out 7years ago nothing has been the same since. BUT since I got out of the hospital I can not stay out of the bathroom and everything runs through me like a tube from my mouth to my bottom about 6inches long:)I am so misserable. My boyfriend is so understanding but i am so tried and stressed out. Besides the fact I hate the bathroom thing anyway i have to live there now. The other night we went to eat out and in that time i went 6x and so imberresed. Its like I dont wont to leave home. I sell townhomes in colorado and its 3 storys nightmare on my stomach. My drive home is 1hour running to the bathroom when i get home my kids think I am funny but they have no I diea the pain I am going through. Its almost like death to eat anymore which I love everything. Dairy is my favorite and now it just kills me evertime i eat it. I am going to try this special diet thats on this site I hope it works. Its going to be hard when I have a 18 and 15 and boyfriend that loves to eat. Does stress make IBS worse. No one understands me in my family. I think they think I am making this up. I really want to be heathy again the dr's put my on dycylcomine but I dont think its working. They didnt seem to really know that much about IBS and I think they are guessing. Is there something better to take?? Help in CO
