Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Hello All....I'm back for a little while

It's been so long since I have been here. I hope you all are doing good. We got a new internet system here at work and also rearranged the office I work in so it is harder to get on-line without someone seeing me. But we have people on vacation right now...so I am doing a no-no and getting on-line.

I have been doing pretty well up until the past couple days. Lots of abdominal pain...kind of cramping but am not supposed to start my period for a couple weeks. Making lots of trips to the bathroom in the morning and then eventually ok. I think most of it is just this extreme heat we are having. My husband and I don't have air conditioning so we rely on fans and open windows in the evening and pray for an evening breeze. Can the heat affect IBS? Does anyone else have this problem?

The pain in my abdomen kind of feels like menstral cramps and I also have pressure when I first sit down or stand up. I'm not sure how to best describe it but it gets worse here the past few months when I get close to my period.

Thanks for listening. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
