Wow that sounds like me except I am in my mid thirties. I am worse this year out of nowhere. Yeast overgrowth is interesting. I really need to cut out sugar since yeast could be adding to my problems. Right now I am trying a month without b/c pills. My friend has been really sick for a few years now and has been in the Mayo clinic and had all sorts of parts removed in an attempt to make her better. She stopped her b/c pills and got immediately better (she doesn't have IBS; I mean health in general). She wrote to all the doctors she's seen to tell them and some are testing their patients off b/c. So I figured I would go off for one month. also I am making sure I get enough protein since I have such good days and then such bad, I thought maybe I didn't get enough protein when I feel so low and tired and achy-like. BTW some of those symptoms aren't IBS technically. Alot of people get tired, achy, nauseated, etc. but they aren't truly just IBS. Although anyone after D or with relentless C can be quite fatigued! I hope I can improve my worsened state and help others with what improved it!
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
