I am so glad I joined this board. I dealt with the IBS mess for so many year feeling like I was alone in this. I can't believe how good it is to talk to other people who are in the same boat. Yes I know the walk well. That hunched over, grimmaced look on face LOOONNNG walk to the bathroom. It seems no matter how careful I am in restaurants asking all the right questions the waiter/waitress just doesn't know everything and guesses and sometimes there is a little butter or MSG on something you'd never suspect and bam, crampola time.
